Default Re: Muslims 'under siege like Jews' - 07-06-2008

This might be an inappropriate question, but is there any place on this planet where Muslims are a minority and yet do not feel 'under siege'? If I just think of the periphery around the Muslim majority countries there are always some political and social tensions. Just moving from East to West: Thailand, check. India, check. Russia, check. Balkans, check. Cyprus, check. Western Europe, check. US, check. Nigeria, Ivory Coast, Ethiopia, check, check, check. Seriously, where is a Muslim minority that is comfortable about it's relations with the majority? Canada or something?

Not to say that this means Muslims are themselves responsible for this state of affairs. It might well be that the 'majority' bears a major responsibility. Or maybe it is simply so that minorities always feel under siege one way or another?
