[From article]
Absent that assimilation, these largely Muslim newcomers will, as EU anti-immigration activists insist, only undermine any EU nation foolishness enough to welcome indigestible refugees.
This assimilation question is fundamental but it is being ignored and, as we shall see, for good reason -- frank talk is verboten in today’s PC times.
Ample on-the-ground evidence predicts that assimilation will fail. Many Germans daily witness what happens when thousands of middle Easterners dominate a neighborhood -- very un-German filth and criminality. Or visit Malmo, Sweden, or numerous cities in Great Britain, France and Italy to see nearly identical scenes. And many of the refugees are young men with a penchant for violence.

Even Progressive educators such as John Dewey were pro-assimilation and unashamed patriots.
Israel is today’s leader in assimilation.
[. . .]
government policies, often justified as compassion, actually impede assimilation -- in the US, for example, this includes election ballots and drivers’ license tests in multiple languages.
[. . .]
Does Europe want to import the religious conflict that is now upending the Middle East?
An ethnic-based nationalism is now equivalent to xenophobia; the principle of “human rights” totally trumps national sovereignty. Who would ever have predicted that a US presidential candidate who called for a campaign exclusively in English would be labeled “divisive”?
[. . .]
To be blunt, this tidal wave is tolerated owning to fear of being denounced as racist.
