Russia sees Muslim population boom

By  Jonah Hull
 
The Muslim population could outnumber
ethnic Russians within 30 years

 
Low domestic birth rates and rising immigration from the former Soviet republics have produced an explosive growth in Russia's Muslim community.
 
At the same time Russia's overall population is in crisis. Short life spans and low birth rates among ethnic Russians mean the population is declining by 700,000 people a year.
 
 
The return of long-denied religious freedoms in Russia has seen Islam flourish. As a result, many ethnic Russians fear their country is losing its national identity.
 
There are around 25 million Muslims in Russia today, a rise of 40 per cent since 1989.
 
By 2020, with the continued growth rate, Muslims will account for one-fifth of the entire population.
 
Immigration
 
Their numbers continue to grow, fed by immigration from largely Muslim, former Soviet republics in the North Caucasus and Central Asia.
 
Islamic leaders have said that Russia is a haven for Muslim immigrants, keen to work and build on their growing community, and they discount the rise of hostile nationalist sentiment.
 
"When they say Russia is for Russians, it’s a mistaken path that could lead to the break-up of the Russian Federation"

Damir Gizatullin, Council of Muftis
 
Damir Gizatullin, from the Council of Muftis, said: "Some irresponsible politicians want to achieve electoral success by creating nationalist waves.
 
"When they say Russia is for Russians, it's a mistaken path that could lead to the break-up of the Russian Federation."
 
Many ethnic Russians are terrified at the prospect of becoming a minority in their own country.
 
Alexander Belov, from the Movement Against Illegal Immigration, said: "History is a fight between races and religions.
 
"It's the law of nature ... people are used to being with people like themselves, speaking the language their mothers taught them."
 
The Orthodox Church, restored since the Soviet collapse, remains dominant in Russia.
 
But with the rise of Islam, coupled with the negative growth in Russia's ethnic Slav population, dramatic change is under way.
 
If the trend continues, the Muslim population could outnumber ethnic Russians within 30 years.

That is very disturbing indeed. But it also pretty pathetic that Islamic culture is so backwards that Muslims flee by the millions to live in Christian countries.

Obviously Russian culture is superior to the God foresaken Muslim countries that these immigrants are coming from.
