They just redid their penny bar and I snagged a big portion of it still intact. I can't seem to think of where Ten Eyke is.....

What many here don't realize is that Dearborn is like two seperate cities. We have a freeway seperating the East Side from the West side. East Dearborn is where the larger concentration of middle easterners exists, while the West side is quite working class average Americans. In addition, the people discussed in this article are a minority of the middle eastern population that live here. Many others love the US and support us fully in the WOT.

I haven't spoken to anyone about the current Isreal situation, but I suspect it would be a bit different in tone than the WOT conversations.

Ten Eyke is on Audette between Edgewood and Croissant. Basically it's the first street behind Outer Drive (on the North side) and Ten Eyke is between Rotunda and Southfield. Carlisle runs right into it if you pass what is now Amy's and what used to be Carlisle Drugs, next to the Sweetwater Steakhouse.

I completely agree with your assessment of the area. While there are definitely more Arabs in West Dearborn than there were when I grew up (basically there were none then) it is nowhere near the level that East Dearborn has. And most of these people who don't know the area, East or West, don't realize what a nice city Dearborn is. They hear Arab and do a knee jerk.
