Increased Islamic Influence in European Nations

Which is exactly the case in the EU with the big states trying to out-muscle the small states (see the EU thread today) for their benefit.

But the distinction based on national identity is rife within all nations, so I do not think the problems lie in that direction. It is the internal treatment of nationals differentiated on the sole basis of religion, and in this thread, Islamic treatment within Europe, Islamic treatment of the European tradition, islamic influence on these traditions (positive or negative or neutral), and the influence of these European traditions on Islam within and without the borders of the individual and corporate EU that is being discussed. In particular, the treatment of Turkey and other Islamic states in regard to their establishment of 2nd class citizenship status on non-Islamics (Christian, Bahai, Jewish, etc.) at the moment.
