Well ...fear/paranoia will arise wen a way of life which a particular nation has been following is questioned by an immigrant population. Like, groups demanding sharia law to be imposed in any western country is defenitely going to be viewd with suspicion.
Immigrants are expected (and justifiably so)to abide by the rules and accept( not necessarily adopt) the culture of the society they move into and live peacefully. If they have a problem with the culture of a country/legal system, they shudn't be going there.When they try to change it, it naturally leads to tension.
There was a comment on why a person could not be westerner and Muslim. The term Westerner has stood for more than a geographical location. It stands for a culture, a way of living which is different from, say, the Far eastern, Arab way of living.
But for Muslims there is more of a common thread of culture/way of living that binds them whether they are Indians, Brits or Africans.(m not overlooking changes caused by geographical effects)Which might not exactly merge with what is traditionally considered western.
The author's point of a median age of 15.8 in the Gaza strip: If a whole younger generation, which forms a considerable chunk of the population, grows up in a time of constant clash of cultures, in the absence of peace and a force that guides them as to the necessity of diversity in the modern world, they can and will grow up to a future society which is mentally geared for suspicion and non-tolerance.
