Are you sure he’s a Muslim?

He’s from the Detroit area, and the overwhelming majority of Arabs living there are Christians.

Or at least they were when he was born 82 years ago.

Debbie Schussel is usually accurate. Hard to believe but Casey was born of Druze Muslim parents. Your logic is correct that just about all Arab immigrants back then were Christian. I am thinking Caesey’s parents were not very religious but the key to Druze version of Islam is that it has many Christian elements anyways

Kasem was born Kemal Amin Kasem[5] in Detroit, Michigan,[5] on April 27, 1932 to Lebanese Druze parents who emigrated from the British Mandate of Palestine to Lebanon. After arriving in the United States, they settled in Michigan, where they worked as grocers.[6] Kasem is a graduate of Northwestern High School in Detroit and Wayne State University.[5]

What’s interesting about the Druze is that the Israeli Defense Force (IDF) employs them as trackers to hunt down Muzzie terrorists.

Whether tracking terrorists or music hits the Druze are getting it done!
