Christian conservative podcaster and internet personality Matt Walsh added to the national conversation around religion in America when he expertly broke down some numbers regarding demographic changes in the nation stemming back to the post-9/11 era.
For context, the discourse over Islam in America has intensified as Americans have witnessed their communities quickly evolve, whether it’s been news out of Dearborn, Michigan or Minneapolis, Minnesota. New York City elected Zohran Mamdani, a socialist immigrant Muslim, to be its next mayor. And America First Senators have also felt the need to introduce laws banning Sharia law in the United States before even the possibility takes hold.
Walsh specifically addressed rapid changes seen in America as it relates to Muslims residing here. He noted that prior to the events of September 11th, there were for all intents and purposes no Muslims living here. But in the wake of the terror attack that was perpetrated by Muslim fanatics, the powers that be in Washington, D.C. orchestrated twenty years of mass migration of adherents to the same faith that connected the terrorists.
“Virtually the entire current Muslim population in the US came here after 911 in the 1990s there were between 500,000 and 1 million Muslims in this country. That’s it. Now there are more than 4.5 million,” the Daily Wire podcaster observed in the opening segment of a clip seen millions of times on the internet.
He continued to point out how the population has exploded in the United States, while comparing those figures to the near-elimination of Christians when the prominent faiths in a country were reversed. “The Muslim population has more than quadrupled since 911 now, on the other hand, guess what’s happened to the Christian population in Iraq during that same period? Well, it went from 1.5 million Christians to around 200,000.”
“Why is that?” he rhetorically asks. “Well, they were ethnically cleansed. They were terrorized. They were killed. They were forced to leave. Meanwhile, some of our most important cities, you know, the centers of our economy, were flooded with Muslims, and we were told to welcome these people and give them refuge from their third world hell holes, because, after all, they’re just as American as we are.”
Watch Walsh break down the brief history of Muslim immigration to the Christian nation of America below:
Part of the problem with importing millions of non-Christian immigrants has been the demand on local communities to seemingly have to assimilate to their way of life, as opposed to what has been traditionally seen as immigrants assimilating to Americans’ way of life. While immigrants have always retained semblances of their own culture, in 21st-century immigration patterns from Muslim communities show them being insulated and even railroading heritage communities.
The Muslim mayor of Dearborn, for example, reacted to outraged constituents in his hometown by saying they can either accept the changes or leave when they confronted him over a proposed street renaming that honored a man suspected of being connected to Islamic terrorists. The same city has allowed calls to prayer over the public broadcasting system in violation of city ordinances against both that specific use and noise levels.
