A Gallup poll of Muslims in the United States has found that they are far more likely than people in Muslim countries to see themselves as thriving.
In fact, the only countries where Muslims are more likely to see themselves as thriving are Saudi Arabia and Germany, according to the poll.

They won’t be “happy”, “content” or “included” until there’s a mosque on every street corner, a prayer being shouted every hour from a loudspeaker and a blonde-haired Dhimmi in every bed.
It never stops does it? It is one nonwhite group after another to dump on Whitey in our own country. Nobody, most of all us, asked them to come here in the first place. In fact I believe most of us would love to see all of them pack up and leave. The only race in this country that is falling and not thriving in any way is the White race. WE built and formed this country for our own progeny, not for theirs and yet we are the ones getting the shaft.
Of course you have a sense of being excluded from the mainstream, because you AREN’T mainstream. Just as I wouldn’t feel “mainstream” if I chose to move to the Middle East, Japan, Mexico or Africa. So what’s your point???
Nobody, most of all us, asked them to come here in the first place
Please keep in mind that these American muslims are NOT (in general) the Arab, middle east type of muslim, they are mostly the lazy, shiftless, entitled thug black converts we are so familiar with. The true muslim Arabs from Saudi and Kuwait are sending their soldiers into the EU to assist in the take over there.
All other Islamic countries are yours to be mainstreamed in.
America belongs to us, where our basic belief of freedom super-cedes the entangled dictations of a political religion.
You are free to make better choices and prosper!
They will not feel included and satisfied until they are 60 years old with 3 muslim wives of their own, 15 ugly Muslim children and then they insist on the right to take a 4th wife, your 16 year old daughter.
If you object to their efforts of “inclusion” expect to be dragged in front of American versions of the Alberta Canada Human Rights Tribunal - you will be grilled by some PC marxist White woman who’s probing questions are designed to determine what was your “intent” in rejected the marriage offer?
In these situations, the best defense is a good offense. Never ever taking any gruff from any PC human rights tribunal. Stick to your 1st Amendment rights for free speech and be honest in saying that you like Islamic extremist more than you do these bitter, idiot PC marxist white women who sit on these human rights tribunal.
“American Muslims see themselves as excluded from the mainstream.”
That’s quite interesting; murder 3000 innocent Americans and the rest don’t want you around. Is anyone claiming to be suprised at this phenomenon?
In Central Florida we are mostly run over by Puerto Ricans (at least they have some kind of claim, as citizens), Haitians (god knows how these people get over here, and what they do once they are here), plus Hondurans and Mexicans. But I was recently in a side of town I usually never get to, and was surprised to see numerous women wrapped up in their Muslim costumes. These were not blacks, nor submissive white women, but indigenous Middle Easterners. THAT shocked me. It’s hard not to think of the US in the past tense, and in Star Trek terms: “It’s life Jim, but not life as we know it.”
Being “mainstream” is nice if you have it, but it’s not an entitlement, nor is it necessary to lead a good life.
The only way Muslims will be “mainstream” is if they are the majority. What do they think “mainstream” means?
They don’t feel mainstream here because we aren’t dhimmis… yet.

Muslims have never been “mainstream” in the West because Islam is not the “prevailing current of thought”.
I wonder what percentage of ‘African American’ muslims were included in the poll? They are the most disatisfied group in US history.
“There is still a sense among American Muslims of being excluded from the mainstream,” … “and among young people that’s more acute.”
If I went to live in China, I would be distinct from the mainstream too. It’s part of the package when you move to another country with a different race, religion, culture.
President Obama’s new presidential order should give them some company. A few hundred thousand pro-Hamas Muslim Palestianians are on their courtesy of the American taxpayer.
“Presidential Determination No. 2009-15 of January 27, 2009 - Unexpected Urgent Refugee and Migration Needs Related To Gaza Memorandum for the Secretary of State By the authority vested in me by the Constitution and the laws of the United States, including section 2(c)(1) of the Migration and Refugee Assistance Act of 1962 (the “Act”), as amended (22 U.S.C. 2601), I hereby determine, pursuant to section 2(c)(1) of the Act, that it is important to the national interest to furnish assistance under the Act in an amount not to exceed $20.3 million from the United States Emergency Refugee and Migration Assistance Fund for the purpose of meeting unexpected and urgent refugee and migration needs, including by contributions to international, governmental, and nongovernmental organizations and payment of administrative expenses of Bureau of Population, Refugees, and Migration of the Department of State, related to humanitarian needs of Palestinian refugees and conflict victims in Gaza. You are authorized and directed to publish this memorandum in the Federal Register. (Presidential Sig.) THE WHITE HOUSE, Washington, January 27, 2009.”
The Muslims should not worry as the whites are dying off quickly.
If they were so content in their native stink-holes, whey did they leave? Do they believe that once they flood this nation with their ilk, and their ideas and behaviors, that it will somehow be different (and better) here than what they left behind? When Africans take over an area in the U.S. (like Detroit or New Orleans) it eventually becomes a little mini-Africa. Why should we expect a difference if muslims take over an area or region in the United States. If their cultures were so great, they wouldn’t need to leave!
They will never be happy here. Send them all back to a place where they will be happy.
If they wanted to be part of the “mainstream”, they should have remained in the Moslem world where they would fit right in.
Again!!! most of these trouble making muslims in the U.S. are black American muslim converts that have simply added another dimension to their incessant whining. The added benefit to being a muslim is sthat now they can whine about RELIGIOUS PERSECUTION and get more stuff!! If they don’t get more stuff, they become “outraged” and riot (as usual)
A Muslim “mainstream” in Europe or North America would create precisely the same sort of conditions that made them want to leave the Middle East in the first place.
