My View

This my view is a quick my view as I am busy as the Grim Reaper at an old folks home after a fireworks display. The issue to grapple with is how to deal with a problem population inside a country. For example how does America deal with Hispanic gangs or how does the U.K deal with its militant Pakistani population?

There is a double sided danger to this issue, if your to hard you create an increased sense of grievance of that ethnic population and you may very well drive the gangs or un-integrated populous to arm up to protect themselves. But if your not hard enough every other member of your country will lack security and by not tackling the problem it may get worse and entrenched.

But the problem can go on, especially in liberal western countries there is a distinct possibility of no go areas and low level insurgencies. While some western nations are to blame for being excessively racist and exclusive the problem appears to manifesting it self in those third and fourth generations who should be more integrated relaxed and comfortable in their host countries

The point here is this is an issue that requires decades of very strong and very consistent policy from western governments yet this is what appears to be the hardest thing a western government do. Thus is it the case not to long in the future western nations may face multiple low level insurgencies? Or is it the case we may even face the embryonic beginnings right now? This is a major concern as it represent such a massive challenge to the continuityof the western state, and I would suggest we don’t have a handle on it.

    One way to help ease this problem would be for the government to develop a more ethical foreign policy, ie. to stop taking us off on crusades around the globe.
