Almost half the 200 million young people in North Africa and the Middle East want to migrate to the West. The top reasons they gave were “economic factors and corruption in their country,” not fear for their lives. Also, the Arab Youth Survey merely shows the number of youth in these areas who want to migrate, not the adults who wish to do so, or the numbers of those who have already migrated, legally and illegally. Mass illegal Muslim migration continues into the EU — despite the coronavirus lockdown and resulting bad economy, despite the fact that most have been economic migrants jumping the queue.
When the Arab Youth Survey asked about the most important personal value as related to identity, religion was overwhelmingly the most important. 40% cited religion over family, nationality, heritage, language and gender.
Merely two years ago, a Pew Research study showed that up to two-thirds of Sub-Saharan Africa’s 1.1 billion people want to migrate to the EU and the U.S. Given open-door immigration policies in the EU, they will likely have their wish.
“Nearly half of young Arabs have considered emigration, survey finds,” Middle East Monitor, October 6, 2020:
More than 40 per cent of the region’s 200 million Arab youths are either actively considering or have considered emigrating to another country, this year’s Arab Youth Survey has found.
The survey, which is commissioned by Dubai communications agency Asda’a Burson Cohn & Wolfe, found that 47 per cent of young people in North Africa had considered emigration, with that figure rising to 63 per cent among youths living in the Levant, of which half said they wanted to leave permanently.
The highest recorded desire to emigrate was in Lebanon, where 77 per cent of respondents said they had considered leaving the crisis-stricken state, followed by Libya, Yemen and Iraq, each of which recorded between 65 and 69 per cent of youths wanting to leave.
Meanwhile, the survey, which is in its 12th year, reveals that the global coronavirus pandemic has increased young Arabs’ desire to emigrate, with one-third of respondents saying the virus had made them more likely to want to live abroad.
The primary drivers behind young Arabs’ desire to emigrate, the survey said, were economic reasons and perceived government corruption, with educational opportunities, safety, security and new experiences also acting as important factors…..
Peter Buckley says
To quote from one of those studies:
“Many young Arabs said religion plays too big a role
– a perception that has strengthened over the past
five years. In 2015, half (50 per cent) of those
surveyed said they thought religion played a
prominent role in the Middle East rising to 66 per
cent in 2019 and 67 per cent now. Many young
Arabs (66 per cent) strongly agreed to the
statement that the Arab world needs to reform its
religious institutions…………”

This is indeed what we are now witnessing:
“Islam’s failure to fulfill its promise of success has created a theological crisis among many Muslims. Those nations that have experienced Islamic revivalism or “radical jihad” have produced a growing number of Muslims who want to leave Islam, either converting to other faiths like Christianity or abandoning religion altogether. “Whenever Islamic revivalist movements have seized power … the long-term result is apostasy from Islam,” said Durie. “[I]t’s one thing to believe in a utopia and quite another … to experience the … cold reality of an Islamic dystopia.”- Mark Durie.

LB says
Heavily disagree. Many (if not all) of these Arab muslims want to immigrate to the West not to ESCAPE their religion, but to further PROMOTE it.
If it was the opposite (as you claim it to be), then we wouldn’t have this much non-integration of muslims into the West. Segregation, no-go zones, sharia courts and police… All symptoms of muslims not integrating into their Western guest countries. Had they truly wanted to escape the hell of their Arabic home countries (which they themselves made, by the way), they wouldn’t actively try to turn the West into another Middle East.
This is not to say that there aren’t muslims who want to escape their oppressive religion but are unable to due to the fear of retaliation from their coreligionists, but that number is dwarfed by the number of muslims who want to conquer the West, enslave all non-muslims and bring about a global caliphate, as is decreed by their “religion”.
Let me ask you this: would you eat a candy from a blow of hundreds of candies if you knew one of them was poisonous? Neither would I, so why risk it? However, the situation with muslims is reversed: there is only one non-poisoned candy in a bowl of a hundreds of poisoned ones. That’s not playing Russian Roulette; that’s plain suicide. Unfortunately for us, that’s exactly what our Western leaders have opted to do…
Peter Buckley says
“If it was the opposite (as you claim it to be)…”
As I never said that, you appear to be having an argument with somebody who isn’t here:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Straw_man#:~:text=A%20straw%20man%20A%20straw%20man%20%28sometimes%20written,is%20said%20to%20be%20%22attacking%20a%20straw%20man%22.
You are free to live your life in fear and dread if you choose, but don’t expect others to cower under the bedsheets…..
Bella says
We’ve all witnessed endless attacks on innocents in the streets just minding their own business, Jewish businesses attacked, the no go zones and the muslim hatred and threats. If you want to live with your head in the sand, it is your choice, but he is right – religonofpeace.com might help you out.
gravenimage says
Peter, noting that Muslims immigrating to the West do indeed wage Jihad here in order to impose Islamic law is *not* “cowering under the bedsheets” as you claim. It is telling the honest truth.
If we don’t want to see our societies destroyed, then we di indeed have to acknowledge that this is happening.
That you are apparently sanguine over the specter of the free world inundated by 200 million ravening Muslims indicates that you are in denial–or worse.
LB says
“I never said that”
Then why cite this bogus study? And this line wasn’t your approval of it:
“This is indeed what we are now witnessing”
Okay then. If you’ll excuse me, I’ll go back to cowering under my bedsheets now.
Bella says
What sickens me is that we knew they were snakes before we allowed them in.
Lion heart says
LB : true and they wanna become majority in order to implement Islamic law ! Very snaky !! Be careful and I am a Canadian Christian guy originally from Iraq ! Iraqi Christian ancestors said it once Many centuries ago “ if a Muslim is a piece of gold , don’t put them in your pocket otherwise they rip through “ meaning when they get the Chance they would back nonmuslims in the back as they did to Iraqi Christians thought out Islamic existence in Iraq especially after the fall of Saddam’s bloody regime .
Bella says
They have 57 moslem countries they can go to. They don’t have to invade ours.
Linde Barrera says
To Peter Buckley-I agree with you. Even the nicest and most civil of Muslims want Sharia law to go where Muslims go so it can be imposed on all societies with Muslims, regardless of their portion in any population.
maria says
don´t trust the muslims young or old. What these “tolerant” muslims say is TAkiya (lei, deceit)
William says
Those youths are not attracted to the west because of economic factors and political corruption in their own countries. Absolutely not. They had nothing whatsoever to do with that. They are the creme de la creme and are going west because they desire freedom. We all know freedom is a universal value, so all human beings share this one value.
The freedoms existing in the west — which are currently being erased — that they desire and are seeking are: private property, individual freedom, freedom of thought, freedom of speech, freedom of movement, freedom of association, etc. Those are the most fundamental human values. Those youths share a common value with the west. How wonderful that is!
Chrissie01 says
What?
James Lincoln says
William says,
“They are the creme de la creme”
So, what you’re saying, is that that’s the *best* that they have to offer…
gravenimage says
Is William here being serious? If all of these Muslims desire freedom, how is it that most of them are refusing to assimilate into the civilized West, that many refuse to work or learn the language, are creating No Go Zones that are dangerous even for the police, are mounting Shari’ah patrols, and are waging violent Jihad against us?
Note that even in the United States, over half of Muslims openly say that they want to impose Shari’ah law here.
And what does the creme de la creme even mean when we are talking abut Jihad terrorists?
Rarely says
Hard to blame them.
gravenimage says
Rarely, that so many of them are invading the west to destroy our societies is indeed blameworthy–at least most of us think so.
Krishna says
Migrate legally and adopt their culture simple!
Jayell says
No. They should fix their own countries if they know what they really want to do. or is that too difficult for them? There’s easily enough of them to make a difference if they actually get their acts together. My guess is that they actually don’t want to/can’t be bothered to/will never learn how to change anything but just want a share of someone else’s proverbial pie. All they’ll do if they migrate will be exactly the same as we’ve already seen in Europe – they’ll just help themselves to what’s on offer and take it even if it’s not being offered, then carry on exactly as they’ve been doing back home, turning their new ‘home’ into the same sort of cesspit that they left. Just look at Sweden. Unless there’s been some kind of environmental catastrophe, large-scale migration is a symptom of the abject failure of all concerned.
peter says
There is always a simple solution to very complex problems which does not work!
mortimer says
Bribery is the SUNNA of Mohammed. Islam creates a culture of corruption wherever it goes.
The only way to stop the corruption is to convince Muslims that the Koran is a manmade book.
Rarely says
Whereas, of course, the Bible wasn’t.
gravenimage says
Rarely, you need not believe that the Bible was divinely inspired to recognize that it does not teach the subjugation or murder of all unbelievers as the Qur’an does.

Walter Sieruk says
All those Arab Muslim youth who want to migrant to the Western countries is very interesting.
Those who desire to enter a nation of the West to learn and work because they admire Western civilization is just fine. .The problem is let’s not be naïve ,some of them might be dangerous sand deadly jihadists.
For In the different nations of Europe as a whole 91% of the victims of Islamic violence ,as in many cases deadly Islamic violence .The jihadists use firearms as well as using bombs .Even using themselves as human bombs time bombs ,just waiting to go off in the many cities of Europe . It only takes a few out of many to inflect much murderous harm. Those jihadists engaging in Islamic suicide/homicide bombings attacks is for a large part, the outcome the extreme brainwashing that is performed in Islamic mind programming centers which are mosques and madrasas. In those jihad mind control places students are thoroughly indoctrinated into the jihadist mindset of committing murderous bombing attacks in the jihad for the advancement of Islam. As Islam’s “holy book,” the Quran instructs in 9:111. , for example, “The believers fight in Allah’s Cause, they slay and are slain they kill and are killed.” Therefore, those who come out of those Quran based mind programming centers .mosque and madrasas, are so terribly harmed and damaged that they are literally, as it has be rightfully called, “dangerous to self and others.” This results in jihad suicide /homicide attack in which those jihadists who commit such murderous actions are so very deluded that they think of that jihad mass murders as “martyrdom operations.” This is Islamic delusion of the most heinous and malicious kind.
This may be, somewhat, explained by the narrative from the fable of Aesop which is entitled THE SCORPION AND THE FROG So “Once upon a time there was a scorpion who really wanted to get to the other side of the river, but he could not swim. Therefore, the scorpion begged a frog to carry him on his back across the river. The kind but foolish frog agreed and then half-way across the river the scorpion stung the frog. In shock and horror the dying frog asks the scorpion “Why did you sting me since this means that we both are going to die” The scorpion replied “The reason that I stung you even though we both will now die is because that just what a scorpion, by nature, does.”
In conclusion, just as that scorpion in the fable had proven himself by the dangerous and deadly, to self and others, because of his nature. The violent and murderous jihadists of Islam are as that scorpion, dangerous so self and other because they is their nature because they have been thought programmed in the ways of the violent and murdering jihad of Islam. As always stated above ,this is the sad and tragic reality of Islamic terrorism in today’s world.
Christopher Watson says
If Arab youths want to change their societies then let them. It took us about 200 years and several revolutions and wars. We moved the ultimate power from the Church and the monarchy to the ‘people’. It started with the American Revolution followed by the French Revolution followed by the Russian Revolution followed by the widening of the British voting system and finally the First World War. But the Arab ‘Youths’ think it’s a matter of moving their geographical location. Dream on.
Andy Testrino says
And the state of their countries is none of their faults.
tim gallagher says
Well the numbers that want to invade the wealthier, more civilised (with social welfare, etc) western countries alone make the findings of this report a completely disastrous prospect. Islam has helped to destroy these countries that these would be invaders come from, it has kept them in totally backward, primitive and barbaric ways of living their shitty lives, and the trouble is that Muslims will always want to impose their backward crap on everyone wherever they go (with the exception of those brave apostates who genuinely do ditch the vile ideology of Islam). Keep Muslims out no matter how difficult it may be for Europe to achieve that, otherwise the civilised way of life in western Europe will be completely destroyed, and the same applies to North America, Australia, etc, which is what islam has done to many civilisations during its 1400 years of destruction. Islam has been such a damaging, destructive ideology throughout its sorry existence. And I agree with the comments by people up above. These people should get to work and fix their own crappy countries. Of course, that would require ditching islam, which will probably never happen.
gravenimage says

tim gallagher says
Yes, It seems to me, gravenimage, that Muslims, having destroyed their own parts of the world with their backward islamic garbage, almost always then want to invade other better, more civilised parts of the world, such as the countries of the western world, and impose Islam on us all. I suppose a few Muslims do want to reach a safe place, where they can throw off the chains of Islam, but most seem so brainwashed that they just want to impose their crappy style of life on us all. I wish they’d stay in their Muslim “paradises” and leave us alone. Islam has nothing good to offer anyone.

Actually, more Germans voted for a candidate other than Merkel in the last election–the problem was the opposition vote was splintered.
Vladimir says
I call it the ”California liberal effect”. A liberal flees the mess of California that he helped create, then flees it only to try turning his new home in another state into another liberal mess. Likewise, these Muslims will talk a big talk about reforming what can’t be reformed and migrate outside Islamic countries, but they’ll look around them and call for Sharia law in these new non-Islamic lands, as sure as the sky is blue and the trees are green.
Tesdorf Design says
Islam creates countries that 40% of people want to get out of. Does this his explain the 7th. Century Arab Conquests?
gravenimage says
Study: Over 40% of 200,000,000 Muslim Arab youths want to migrate to the West
……………..
As Robert Spencer says, what could possibly go wrong?
somehistory says
Of course they consider it. . they realize they can’t go full jihad and murder a lot of non-moslims if they stay where they are.
The number is probably a lot higher if they were asked if the would consider it if funded by their government or other moslims to go and commit to full jihad…murder or infiltration of the government.
There may be some of the 60% who would “consider” it if they knew they could escape charges of rape when the ‘grab all their hand can find.’

”the survey, which is in its 12th year, reveals that the global coronavirus pandemic has increased young Arabs’ desire to emigrate, with one-third of respondents saying the virus had made them more likely to want to live abroad.”
Because the mortality rate is higher in their countries? Possibly, but I’d like to read the stats, including the effect of an existing ongoing illness. Because there is no COVID-19 in the West? Lord knows we don’t need our national average IQ lowered by the brain-dead these people obviously are.
