Economic destitution and political authority undoubtedly explain the migration of Muslims, legal and illegal, amounting to many millions of young people, from Islamic regions to Western countries, such as France, Germany, Italy, the United Kingdom, and many others. In the United States their numbers are growing rapidly, probably exceeding five million now. They are attracted by high standards of living and economic freedoms which are the attributes of the Western order. They labor and prosper, earning profits and interest. But we cannot help wondering what they would do to our economic order if they were in a majority and at liberty to introduce and enforce the economic prohibitions and limitations of the Koran.

On the other hand, we we need not spend time wondering what they would do to our economic order if they were in a majority and at liberty to introduce and enforce the economic prohibitions and limitations of the Koran, instead, we need to spend time, resources, and energy to see to it that such an event never occurs!

What's interesting about Sennholz's remarks is that he ties economic prosperity and economic responsibility to the prevailing belief system of the society. Although this ought to be obvious, pluralists often present the economic welfare of a country as random. And, the media reports the propaganda that the poor economic condition of Middle Eastern countries is the result Western Imperialism. Consequently, Sennholz question seems rhetorical.

In other words, the Koran is the source for yet another form of enslavement of a people who are being kept in poverty whilst their leaders get rich at their expense.
