Many like my parents came soon after World War II and just wanted the heck out of a poor country. Not to mention that one of their favorite games as kids was to track shot down German fighters.
Guess what when they got here they were very much for letting people have their own religion, rule of law, tolerance for other cultures, very much in favor of making money over other issues. Plus they found plenty of people who had arrived escaping the same things.
Now you have hordes running from the same things. Wars and poverty and governments who are not tolerant of minorities or religion.
They will fit right in.
