Living in Europe we frequently read about the challenge of integrating Arab immigrants. In Europe we think of Arab Europeans as a low income group. Personally I don\u00b4t know if this perception is true but I to learned today from my friend Kaleil Isaza who started JumpTV<\/a> that this is certainly not the case in the United States. Indeed the Arab American\u00b4s average income is higher than the average income of all Americans. Later at home I found this article on Arab American demographics<\/a> that corroborates what Kaleil told me. JumpTV by the way is an interesting venture that brings TV over the internet to immigrant groups and is mainly focused on Arabic and Spanish speaking channels. For JumpTV it\u00b4s very important that immigrants be reasonably well off as internet tv requires a much greater investment than regular TV. As I read the Arab American Institute web site and how Arab Americans I wondered about the factors that led to the tremendous success of Arabs in America and if these could be replicated in Europe.<\/p>\n
