...I wonder if that includes Dearborn. MI.
Seriously?
Do you realize how sectarian you are?

There are less than 100,000 people in Dearborn and about 40,000 are of Arab descent. A great many of these are Lebanese Christians. In fact most 'Arabs' in Dearborn are Lebanese.
"An in-depth look at Dearborn, Michigan, a suburb of Detroit that - home to the second largest Arab population outside the Middle East - some call "America's Muslim capital."

As long as you are the official kibbeh rep. carry on with your "Dearborn is wonderful" campaign.
Dearborn is a microcosm of the Middle East planted in the Midwestern United States. The roughly 40,000 Arab Americans of Dearborn (out of 100,000 total residents) defy the myth many Americans hold of a unified Muslim world. While there are some radical Islamists, Dearborns growing Muslim population runs the gamut from international traders to educated professionals to local business owners. Every Arab nationality and religious sect is found in Dearborn, from Yemeni traditionalists to secular modernists.
So they don't make bombs, they don't bomb things and kill people they don't beat their wives, they don't behead Christians....gee, maybe I've got it all wrong. NOT !!
Oh, it's just the radical ones I have to watch out for..........I can't spot the difference, so all are suspect.
Also, why are we sending ANY $$$$ out of this country ???
Cut the funds !!
My mantra!
You are entitled to your own opinion. You are not entitled to your own set of facts. But yes, you are entitled to ignore the facts and keep your head in the sand.
Since you won't read the facts I'll throw them right here for you. The 9/11 Commission Report and the CIA have said 9/11 happened as a direct result of blowback. These crazy people choose us to attack because we have been bombing them and occupying their countries for decades. It's going to keep happening unless we seriously overhaul our foreign policy in regards to military action, covert or otherwise.
Why are we losing American lives for some third world country? These people have been fighting each other over barren strips of land for hundreds of years. Why are we there... we can't fix their problems.
