Western Muslim populations are too diverse and marginal for a coordinated international conspiracy.

Evidence

These conspiracy theories ignore many inconvenient facts, not least the political marginality and sociocultural diversity of Muslim populations in the west. For instance, a British Muslim of Pakistani origin might struggle even to communicate with a French Muslim of Algerian origin, making an international Muslim conspiracy extremely unlikely, to say the least (Underhill 2009). — A. Hussain, N. Meer, Framing Muslim Integration, 528

Hussain, N. Meer, Framing Muslim Integration, 256; Demographic projections of Muslim growth are reframed as an intentional weapon against the West. — Margaret Hodson, Baby Jihad, 27
