German Interior Ministry: Nearly 1 in 4 non-German Muslims "rejects integration, questions western values and tends to accept violence"
Stand by for angry denials, claims of "incitement," fears of "backlash," allegations of "Islamophobia" and racism, and in all likelihood, someone will play the Hitler card. "Many German Muslims 'refuse to integrate'," from The Local, March 1 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):

Nearly every fourth non-German Muslim rejects integration, questions western values and tends to accept violence, according to a study commissioned by the German Interior Ministry and released late Thursday morning.

Hans-Peter Uhl, the domestic affairs spokesman of the CDU/CSU faction in the German parliament, the Bundestag, told the Neue Osnabrücker Zeitung that the high number of Muslims who don’t want to integrate is “alarming.”...
