These "Islamic communities" are scattered all over Florida, in the most unlikely little towns - probably many of them were established by Sami Al Arian's group, which certainly established those that are at Florida universities.

They seem to be buying up little churches and turning them into mosques, which I assume is mostly a symbolic gesture. It's hard to imagine that these small towns even have a Muslim population. But it's rather unnerving to drive by some isolated little white building that had probably formerly been a Pentecostal church and see the inevitably green Arabic writing over the doorway.

I'm frankly depressed to see signs in ANY language other than English here in the USA, always have been.

But yep, Arabic would bother me in a specific way. Particularly in a town with which I have any "history."
