What's your definition of "western civilization" and from where do you get your information on islamic influence within the UK? I think I'd rather read the original source of these ideas of yours. UK at one time said pretty much exactly that about Catholic migration.
I'm not sure if you are conflating islamic state with palestinian state. What would you have us do in palestine if not "sit it out?"
IF "we" have lost much of Europe to Islamic beliefs, why do you feel that occurred? I don't recall any islamic crusade. IF this has occurred, it would appear to have been the free choice of the people that already lived in those countries. Why do you suppose they would have so easily given up their Christian based beliefs for Islamic ones?
I'm not sure why you are in denial but do an internet search and you can find the numbers and details. For some reason the British Tribune is blocking it's page but here's what shows in the search:
Behind Christianity Islam is now the #2 religion in the UK. There are other articles talking about how Muslims have moved into other cities across the UK and are gaining more and more influence over the country by being elected into government positions(look what's happened in Minnesota here in the US)
Back in 2017 I worked on an IT project in Daventry, UK. While working with a woman at the local facility she started talking about how she felt her country was starting to lose it's identity and being over ridden by the Muslims, that when I started paying more attention to what she was saying.
Here's a link talking about the spread in the UK.
Which City Has the Most Muslims in England? The city with the highest population of Muslims in England is London. This fact, while straightforward, opens the door to a more complex understanding of the geographical distribution of Muslim communities across the UK. While London boasts the largest...

Here's an interesting snippet from that link where the website tries to paint a softer picture with it's wording but the reality is the growth of the Muslim "settlements" across the UK.
While London has the highest number, other cities in England also have significant Muslim communities, though their total numbers might be smaller compared to London. Cities like Bradford, Luton, Blackburn, Birmingham, and Dewsbury also have large Muslim populations, often forming a significant proportion of their overall local population. Furthermore, other settlements such as High Wycombe, Aylesbury, Slough, Leicester, and Manchester and the mill towns of Northern England also demonstrate strong and diverse Muslim communities. It’s important to consider not just the total numbers but also the density and how these communities are integrated into local life.
Years ago I saw link and story fully discussing the Muslim migration around the globe and that it was a strategy to take over the globe. When their numbers are small they go with the flow while following their beliefs but as their numbers grow then they begin to force their way of life onto non-believers.
Last year I saw a URL link from Australia where the Australian government was considering banning all Muslim immigration because of the problems they were experiencing from the Muslim "settlements".
What's insane about the pro-Muslim/Gaza protestors and spokespersons here in the US is that many of them would be the first persecuted by the Muslims if they were in complete control.
I'm not very religious person and I think if any religion gains too much power they can become corrupt but the Muslim holy book is the only one that actually tells it's followers to kill the infidel(non-believers). I have a friend who was a knight in the Masons and he has read a lot of religious books through the years. He has stated that the Quran is actually a manifesto and not really a Holy book. It's interesting to hear his explanation on why he believes that.
As for Europe there are cities in European countries where the Muslim influence has taken control and is spreading. All I say to you eastisbest is to open your eyes and start paying attention. Even here in the US there are cities being taken over by Muslims. Watch closely what is going on in a city near Dallas TX. The Muslim "settlement" down there has actually started building for a place called EPIC City. Governor Abbot is trying to stop it. Yes it's a real Catch 22 situation because of the freedoms our country offers. But when do those freedoms reach a point where they are being abused?
I just think you are being naive if you are not seeing what is going on and that by ignoring what is happening or defending in the name of freedom you are only allowing it to grow to the point where freedoms for all will diminish and oppression takes over.
