Birth rate gap? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographics_of_Serbia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographics_of_Serbia It happens everywhere that Islamic ethnic groups replace others with population explosion.

Birth rates may be somewhat different, but I don't that's so significant. In the case of former Yugoslavian states, what has happened is that ethnic groups, which formerly used to live in mixed areas, have moved away and concentrated each on their own area. Serbs have moved to Serbia, Croats to Croatia, Muslims have moved out of these. This was result of a mix of fear, actual violent ethnic cleansing by extremists, but also within each population, just a desire to live within one's own ethnic and religious enclave.

  I'd love to know what birth rate gap explains a 85% drop in population in 20 years. And the ethnic cleansing is happening everywhere in Europe now. Muslim enclaves with only tiny amounts of non-muslims are a fact in every Western European city I know about.

    > Muslim enclaves with only tiny amounts of non-muslims are a fact in every Western European city I know about. That's a ridiculous claim. Here's a list of largest cities in the European Union by population within city limits. This list ranges from cities with population over 8million (London) to 315,000 (Catania). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_largest_cities_in_the_European_Union_by_population_within_city_limits https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_largest_cities_in_the_... You have no idea what happens in most of those cities, yet you make this claim anyway. And you focus on muslims, ignoring the strong tendency of some (but not all) immigrants to live in communities. When I do it I'm an ex-pat. When they do it they're evil muslim scum, right?
