majority of workers come from cultural and social backgrounds that cannot assimilate or adapt to local culturesIsn't this the same thing in europe?


33% and 48% of men and women (respectively) are unemployedThat's pretty high number for unemployment when all the jobs go to foreign nationals.

That's pretty high number for unemployment when all the jobs go to foreign nationals.

Part of it is culture. Memorizing the Koran is seen as a better calling than more practical studies. Can't expect a guy with an advanced degree in Sharia Law to know anything about agricultural engineering. And what self-respecting Bedouin would want to be bossed around by a woman?

It's something like in Israel and the hasids refusing to serve in the army, yet claiming moral superiority.
