Cornel - Your post is very interesting and informative, but I have to 
disagree on the subject of "no segregation" in Scandinavian countries.  
What about Malmo???  Do you see a difference between "forced" 
segregation, as in The South (USA) during the last century, and the 
natural desire of people to "live among their own"?  Did the 
congregation of Muslim immigrants in Malmo occur on purpose, either 
because the non-Muslim Swedes desired it or because the new Muslim 
immigrants desired it, or by accident, according to you?

Nowhere there, is there comparable povery and acute residential 
segregation as in the USA.
