Islam in France For many French thinkers Islam is intrinsically inimical to democracy, human rights, women, to freedom of expression and hostile to non-believers and to dissidents within its own ranks. Putting this on a religious basis is a false debate. The real problem is that Muslims (and those from the African continent in general) have significantly accumulated in the housing projects, where there is little practical chance of having equal opportunity. I may be mistaken, but don't think there is a single Arab in l'Assemblée Nationale (so let's just forget about le Sénat.) You can't really get anywhere important in France unless you attend l'École Nationale d'Administration. This observed fact alone speaks volumes about where the real problems lie. The situation is a breeding ground for vermin like the Muslim Brotherhood hardliners.
