For the Arab-Americans that are Islamic radicals...it works for me.
For the Christian or non-Muslim Arab-Americans...step into the light and
make it clear who you are and what side you are on. And you'll have
nothing to fear.
Except from the Jihadis using you for cover.
A Muslim family moved in across the street a couple of weeks ago, and even if there were no 9/11 and I hadn't studied Islam I would find them unfriendly at best, and suspicious/secretive behaving would be reasonable descriptions.
When we went over to introduce ourselves to them they acted as if we were trespassing (at a house where my in-laws used to live and was a second home to my family), and all they wanted us to do was leave.
When I held out my hand to shake the woman's hand she told me "I don't shake hands with men, but my husband does". The husband nodded to me, but did not extend his hand, looking like he thought he might catch something from me.
Now, if they are in the front of the house and they see us coming down the street they go inside and close the door.
They advertise they're Muslim by the costumes she wears yet obviously feel no need to try and counter the reasonable suspicion that most Muslims are at least tacitly in support of Islamofascism, and in fact act like they may have something to hide and/or are suspicious of the neighbors.
Not the sort of neighborhood I was looking for when I was looking for a nice neighborhood to raise my own family in.
Welcome to the New America, where the melting pot and unity are a thing of the past. Now it's just pockets of self-interest groups competing with each other, and the Democratic Party encouraging it as long as they vote (D), but without the vision to recognize that they (Dem "leaders") will soon be thrown overboard when some of the special interest groups gain enough numbers to put up their own candidates.
United we stand, divided we fall.
