I don't understand where this unnecessary fear mongering and pissing in pants is coming from, a good percentage of the Muslim people are not to be in any way feared or hated. Many are law abiding citizens that love their country, whatever country that may be. There is no sense in allowing this racism to be on ATS and if the mods actually did something, or cared, they would put a stop to it.
But as moderators on popular forums, just like other moderators across the internet, they don't give a ****.

I traveled to London earlier this year, and was shocked at the level of muslim assimilation. I suppose it's the English version of the hispanic growth in America (i.e. the caucasians will be the minority in the decades to come).

I think people are making a mistake in assuming that birth rates for Muslims will indefinitely continue at the current rate.
People are people. It doesn't matter what your religion is in the end. Almost every group of immigrants to the west, once acclimated to the new world, eventually adapt to its customs and standards; and that mean fewer kids.
People learn that to achieve success for their children, with expensive higher education and all, its best to have smaller families. Pool your resources so the one child can have the best there is available.
Why would the Muslims be any different? Even if their religion teaches to have many, most won't in the end because in this society fewer kids is more practical.

i will leave with something my late grand father said to me
no matter how much you try
people will always try and put you down and see you as out siders, and never give the same amount of respect back.
No Islamic extremism.... but I'm sure something else would have taken its place. I was speaking hypothetically though, and I wouldn't endorse such actions.
But almost everything has benefits long-term at least, such as multicultural kids whose parents travelled to get away from Nazism, or surivivors of the holocaust. Because of this, many children existed, who would not have existed otherwise. So from the tragedy of nazi attrocities, people are alive today, who may not have otherwise existed. That's just how life is!
