Back in 2004 a “much cited” study authored by the US National Intelligence Council put forward a number of possible projections for the numbers of Muslims who would living in Europe by the year 2025. At its most aggressive, it came up with the scenario of an increase from 20 million today (about 5% of the population) to 38 million in 2025. It turns out that the study had predicated these projections on ”diplomatic and media reporting as well as government, academic, and other sources”.
The study is shown to be an overstatement of the data that it presents itself. Says Jytte Klausen, an authority of Islam in Europe at Boston’s Brandeis University:
“There is a quite deliberate exaggeration, as has often been pointed out—but the figures are still being cited,”
This comes from the lead article in the current edition of Newsweek which conclusively debunks the Eurabia myth once and for all in the article ‘Dispelling the Myth of Eurabia’.
