I don't recall whether the exact term "demographic threat" is used much, but a similar fear is also voiced by certain doom-mongers who warn of a Eurabia dystopic scenario, in Europe. There should be some mention of that in this article, I think. Going further, I wouldn't be surprised if this type of worry is not limited to Arab/Muslim versus non-Arab/non-Muslim groups - what about the growing (nominally) Catholic population in Northern Ireland, which might be of concern to some Unionists there, for example? Note that I am not making any comment about whether these fears or projections are justified concerns here - merely pointing out some connections that might be worth putting into the article.—greenrd 02:33, 20 May 2007 (UTC)

I've converted this into a redirect as the topic is already covered in the Arab citizens of Israel article. I'm not against eventually splitting the article, but at the moment, its not really my interest in doing so. --Abnn 08:39, 25 May 2007 (UTC)

This is a legitimate article, but it needs a better title. There are alleged demographic threats from minorities in several parts of the world e.g. Catholics in Northern Ireland. PatGallacher 18:40, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

Yes, it's improper to create an article on such a general subject that focuses on Israel instead of presenting a global view. In addition to the example above, Muslims in Europe and Hispanics in the US are also relevant to this topic. Beit Or 21:57, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

I changed the title to Demographic threat (Israel) to specify its use there. I'm not aware of its use by other countries, but if someone wants to start an article entitled Demographic threat that explores its use worldwide, they are welcome to. I would ask only that they link to this article as well. Tiamut^talk 12:46, 11 February 2008 (UTC)
