"Are Muslims a benefit to the West?"

Nope, nada, nyet. Except maybe to highlight -- and to "vaccinate" against -- the problematic consequences of religious psychoses.

A rather famous observation by UK philosopher Anthony Flew:

" 'Why I am not a Muslim' gives readers abundant excellent reasons for not becoming or remaining Muslims and also makes a compelling case for the conclusion that Islam is flatly incompatible with the establishment and maintenance of the equal individual rights and liberties of a liberal, democratic, secular state. It thus provides further support for Mervyn Hiskett's more particular contentions about the threat to British traditions and values arising from our rapidly growing Muslim minority."

I suggest reading "The Dying Citizen" by Victor Davis Hanson, who shines a light on many of the topics discussed in this video. I summarize one of these issues in my "2026" Substack about global elites at https://2026.substack.com/p/the-schism-of-globalism
