Has any country gotten it right when it comes to immigration
Such a fuss over those who believe immigrants should integrate into a society on their own and learn the language and adapt and those on the other side of the coin who believe a country should welcome them with open arms and provide welfare and other such facilities. But which works? I'd go for the former, but of course takes time. Which countries have done real well when it comes to integrating immigrants? And what policies did they use to enhance this?

The United States Of America. Maybe because it was initially a country built by immigrants from all ethnicities. Maybe because things like individual rights, diversity, freedom of thinking & religions are sacred principles in the American constitution...Things may not be perfect but I don't know any country who did better than USA when it comes to immigration.
A new immigrant (legal or not) comes to America each 45 seconds !
The American way of life and culture isn't threatened by this massive arrival, quite the contrary it' getting stronger with the time and gain new territories all around the world. It's in the fact one of the reasons behind the economical development : Asian & African scientists, students, Latino cheap labor, athletes...The profiles are very diverse.
Canada isn't bad either : second place for sure. ![]()

Regarding immigration the israeli position is very pro,bearing in mind of course thst the immigrants are our fellow jews..Just from behind the iron cuurtain alone ,over iooo,ooo,a huge strain on resources but we want them..this is what we did,fistly we put them in every vacant apartment that could be found irrespective of where it was,get rooves over their heads...Then at state expense ,back to school,to learn an intensive course in hebrew,this is partiularly important from the point of integrating them into the workforce,get them earning money,having money which THEY earned..Next on the agenda,russian language tv,newspapers they already had..the russians are very well educated ,but without the language skills,they are blind so they take a couple of jobs ,and they don't care what it is and they go to nightschool,,school is on the state..All in all if you turn a blind eye to the excessive drinking from which some of them suffer,,they are integrating smoothly...It's different for american immigrants,,mosy of them arrive with sufficient money to make their own ways,mid thirties ,both husband and wife with degrees,AND,,the language skills..
Australia is about 75% there….

The relationship with the US and its immigrants has really changed in the past few decades. For a century or more, people came to the USA because they were excited about this strange new land and wanted to become an American. They worked hard and for the most part made it on their own and did not expect to do it otherwise. They valued the traditions of their native lands but were determined to become one of these strange new Americans themselves. Nowadays, the newer ones do not even see a need to for their children to learn English. They seem to expect the government to do every thing for them yet seem to reject the basic premise of assimilation. This is the situation with the Hispanics mostly. Other groups are more thankful and work hard to assimiate and do well in the new country. In situations that occurred such as WWII, these Italian, German, Irish, Russian, Japanese Americans, etc. had no doubts about where their lovalites lay. I wonder how many of the new breed would fight against their native lands?
Although they really messed good before, it looks like Denmark is on the right track now.
And what makes you think that?
what makes him think that???is what you think...horizen who will decide who will be your husband??what rights will he grant you,and yet you defend the continuation of this system.....

And please, do not try to twist the topic any futher..
I read the new Danish Law in another topic. It sounds sensible and I think it will help them keep out the undesirables.
I wonder why the author was so obsessed with this subject. He made 4 or 5 topics basically talking about the same thing...

Allright.
The Danes are historically considered a thrifty, industrous country who are also liberal and herioc. Everyone knows of their bravery during WWII. Although the Muslims in Denmark may have valid concerns, the world has such a high opinion of Danes that they tend to automatically assume the Danes are in the right. Turkey, on the other hand, unfortunately, has a horrible reputation. Therefore, no one gives credibility to the Turks in Denmark who complain about the Danes even though they may in fact have some valid complaints. This must be frustrating, but much of the world considers a Turk in Denmark to be extremely fortunate.
If i got a dollar for each time YOU brought up bad things about tr - i would become an millionaire.
"Although the Muslims" -where do you know that it's the muslims and not "some of the muslims"?

You can't seem to grasp the concept of some one having an opinion that is dissimilar to YOURS.
DK sounds very Tom Clancy esque.

I think integration is something which has to be done by both sides: The immigrants as well as the people living already there. The first ones have to find a place in society, learn the language etc and the latter ones have to give the immigrants a possibility to do so.
Someone wrote that the USA are a good example for well-done immigration. This is only true for the immigrants themselves. The native people there were killed, imprisoned and stripped off their rights. So that step of immigration was not really well done.
