Somali " Asylum Seekers" Refuse To Assimilate


Somalians 'won't integrate'

A Somalian woman who came to Norway more than 10 years ago

is harshly criticizing her fellow Somalian immigrants and Norwegian

authorities. In a new book, she claims Somalians themselves don't

want to integrate into Norwegian society, and that Norwegian

welfare programs make it easy for them to remain isolated.

The book written by Amal Aden, a pseudonym for the Somalian

author, is already creating an uproar. Amal Aden wouldn't use her

own name because of fears for her own safety.


In an interview with newspaper Aftenposten, the author said

she hopes to launch a new debate on immigration and what can

be done to further integration.


"I wrote the book in the hopes that children will get better lives,"

she said. "I want to see more integration, and the responsibility

for that lies with the Somalians themselves and with the authorities."


She claims that resistance to integration is widespread

especially among Somalian men, who fear losing their

culture and religion. Many are afraid of Norwegians and

view them as infidels who can't be trusted. ( Yet it is

okay for them to dilute Norways culture, and attack

it and it's religion with their radical Islam ? And if

Norway is so full of infidels, WHY DID THEY COME

TO NORWAY ? Besides the overgenerous handouts of

course.)
