One thing is obvious and always skipped, maybe because of insensitivity: alienation and exclusion is not an evil, planned act, but mostly unintentional. The first generation immigrant workers do cope well with this because they acknowledge and accept it before they immigrate, and do have a purpose to be there and bear the situation. But the later generations don't have no motives to be there, but are thrown into it. And thus they can't handle inevitable cultural incompatibilities. They want to socialise and mix in, like every kid, but that is not possible, so there begins the path to radicalisation, that goes through depression, solitude, and other sufferings. Most of the time their economic situation is well below average too. It matters. And it's not limited to muslims only. There are christians who convert and join the IS:
