I don't know what's going to happen there over the next few generations. I already saw in my aunt's village in Germany how the Turks moved in and mostly refuse to assimilate. Perhaps the Germans could do more to reach out, but what I saw was two separate worlds with very little commonality.

It's reasonable to presume the same thing is going on in hundreds of other towns. Most Europeans have been complacent and tolerant with the newcomers, but I sense there may be a powder keg waiting to blow.
