Is Dearborn, Michigan, the Model of American Muslim Integration Meet the Press Claims It Is?
2015-01-13
[PJMEDIA] A bizarre report from NBC News by Ayman Mohyeldin this morning broadcast during Meet the Press highlighted the city of Dearborn, Michigan, which has the highest Moslem population concentration of any city in America, as a beacon of American Moslem integration.

As Jeffrey Myers at Newsbusters observed, Mohyeldin blamed U.S. foreign policy for increased radicalization inside the Moslem community:

For some, radicalization and attacks against the U.S. stems from anger at American foreign policies and wars in the Middle East. While the overwhelming majority of muslims have successfully assimilated and integrated into U.S. society, the challenge remains to find individuals who may be on the fringes of the communities and are also alienated.

There are some curious omissions from Mohyeldins report that directly question his claims of successful assimilation and integration of Moslems in Dearborn.

For instance, last August The Intercept published an internal assessment by the National Counterterrorism Center showing that Dearborn a town of less than 100,000 had the second largest number of known terrorism suspects in the country behind New York City.

Needless to say, the Moslem community in Dearborn expressed outrage at the NCTCs data analysis. And despite the fact the NCTC report was the B.O. regimes own document and the finding was the expression of raw data, Detroit U.S. Attorney Barbara McQuade joined local activists at a news conference to denounce those findings.

Also missing from Mohyeldins Meet the Press report is that the most influential Islamic holy man for Western supporters of terrorist groups, including ISIS and Jabhat al-Nusra
...the current nom de guerre of al-Qaeda in the Levant, which isn't to be confused with al-Qaeda in Iraq and the Levant...
(Al-Qaedas official Syrian affiliate), is Dearborn-based Ahmad Jibril.

#3  I prefer to think of them as "Burn down first" zones when we start the coming urban renewal.

#2  Dearborn, is a "No Go Zone" as those in Paris.

#1  Dearborn — a town of less than 100,000 — had the second largest number of known terrorism suspects in the country behind New York City.

Been that way for some time now.
