Oasis of Arab culture sits comfortably in Dearborn, Michigan

Dearborn, Mich. - With a massive mosque, minarets and scores of Arabic-signed stores and restaurants, parts of this city look like the Middle East. But Dearborn is a lot closer than Beirut, Damascus or Cairo. And while this Detroit suburb may be better known as the hometown of Ford Motor Co., it’s also where the Mideast meets the Midwest. (Snip) “People don’t understand to what extent world cultures feed and learn from each other,” said Anan Ameri, director of the museum. “America is a country of immigrants. It has been shaped by these immigrants and the immigrants have been shaped

your post was much better.
that SHOULD be all that is needed to say!

but often someone will yell “freedom of religion”.
so it is necessary to remind them, that the Constitution isn’t a suicide pact. (and, as precedent, we did prevent Mormons from “freedom of religion”.)

Mohammed himself did MUCH worse than that polygamist (Jeffereds?), who is in jail now. Why is one a cult,
and the WORSE one, a respected protected religion???

The big lie is that we are “a country of immigrants,” we started as a group of colonies and at the signing of the Declaration of Independents the majority of Americans were born here. No other country has to put up with this lie, even though people migrated their from somewhere else. To say we are a country of immigrants is to degrade our culture and to make it seem that illegal aliens are just like the rest of us. It is a term used my Marxist to destroy our country. Beside a country started by immigrants is not the same as one invade by illegal immigrants.

This is very good situation...It's always best to have the enemy bunched up for high-value targeting...

Break out all the left-over B-29's and B-17's...They will be needed sometime in the not-too-distant future...

We’ve got A-10’s at Selfridge ANGB but I have no idea why we’d need tank killers and close air support based on the western shore of Lake St. Clair. There’s also a DHS presence and I don’t mean the MI Department of Human Services, either.

On the other hand though, there are quite a few KC-135’s on duty which means the A-10’s are not as limited in range as one might otherwise think.

Yep! Just a symbolic reference...

For an old codger like me news about those fire-storms generated by the 17's and 29's are some of my fondest age-10 & age-12 memories...
