The west is facing a demographic time bomb

"Britain and the rest of the European Union are ignoring a demographic time bomb: a recent rush into the EU by migrants, including millions of Muslims, will change the continent beyond recognition over the next two decades, and almost no policy-makers are talking about it." Adrian Michaels, The Telegraph (UK), August 2009.

"Baby Boom Intifada: European Muslim Population Time Bomb. A high birth rate among Muslim immigrants to Europe will make followers of the religion a majority of the population in many European Union countries in less than 40 years, according to demographers." Tzvi Ben Gedalyahu, Israel National News.
