Because the real problem I see from here is that ambitious young men in enforced idleness, are always dangerous no matter what their nationality or religion. Letting people in but not letting them work is like stockpiling dynamite in a gasoline refinery.
I blame that more on the people higher up than immigrants. People fall into a trap of blaming immigrants for "taking all the jobs", instead of focusing their attention to the greedy "rich get richer" fuckers at the top, who either move their business abroad for cheap slave labour or don't pay workers here in Europe enough. Blaming immigrants as a scapegoat is just easy.
I don't like this at all. The far right aren't the people who should be at the front of addressing issues with secularism, but they're gaining popularity in a lot of European countries by co-opting traditionally leftist language of "rights" and "freedoms" to appeal to the working classes. That's how UKIP and The EDL have gained more popularity here in The UK in recent years.

"Ironically like the nativist far-Right, which despises multiculturalism, but benefits from its ideas of difference to scapegoat the other and to promote its own white identity politics; these postmodernists, leftists, feminists and liberals also use multiculturalism, to side with the oppressor, by demanding respect and tolerance for oppression characterised as 'difference', no matter how intolerable." - Maryam Namazie
