Traditionally it was illegal to be a Muslim in Christian Europe - what if this was still the case today? (Assume that Jewish emancipation occurs as in OTL by the way...)
Would it throw WWI in the Germans' favour? (Because the British and especially the French couldn't use Muslim colonial troops on the Western Front perhaps, or perhaps because the German backed call for jihad against the Allies isn't such a damp squib...)
Or would it have little significant effect until post-WWII, by either changing the composition of immigrant populations (eg if Muslims were barred from Britain, then I'd expect there'd be more Hindu Indian immigrants to compensate), or reducing them significantly (if Muslims were barred from France, then only a few sub-Saharan areas plus Indochina would be viable sources of immigrants)?
If Turkey and other Muslim countries are not considered, are any non-Muslim countries possible alternatives to supply West Germany with Gastarbeiter?
