Europe's asylum seekers: Who they are, where they want to be | Pew Research Center

I've been wondering who would do an analysis of the immigrant waves to Europe. Who are they? Where do they come from?
At least PEW makes a start.
What we still don't know is the likely percent who are Islamist or supportive of extremist Islamism. Hard to figure, to be sure. But a start must be made on that. For it's not a moot point. The answer to that question is going to affect the very nature, the very future, of Europe -- at least as the open and tolerant societies they have been for going on a century.
Is this the century in which all that changes? For the worst?
