The Wall Street Journal ran an op-ed from Steven Salinsky of MEMRI describing Dearborn, MI as “America’s Jihad Capital.”
MEMRI videos have been invaluable in exposing the support for Islamic terrorism among many mosques and Islamist politicians including in Dearbornistan, especially after the Hamas invasion and atrocities of Oct 7. And Salinsky describes some of what went on.
A local headline describing an Oct. 10 event at the Ford Performing Arts Center read “Michigan rally cheers Hamas attack.” Imam Imran Salha of Dearborn’s Islamic Center of Detroit told the crowd that Israel’s past actions have put “fire in our hearts that will burn that state”—Israel— “until its demise.”
At another rally, held Oct. 14 in front of the Henry Ford Centennial Library, Imam Usama Abdulghani also didn’t hide his support for Hamas’s terrorist actions. The American-born, Iranian-educated Shiite Islamic scholar called Oct. 7 “one of the days of Allah” and a “miracle come true.” He described the attackers as “honorable.” He said they were “lions” defending “the entire nation of Muhammad the messenger.”
The Islamic Center of America, a leading Dearborn mosque, held a memorial service on Dec. 30 for a Hezbollah operative killed in an Israeli airstrike. The Hadi Institute, which runs an Islamic Montessori school and bills itself as a youth community center, held a “Commemoration of the Martyrs” on Jan. 5. This event honored Quds Force Commander Qassem Soleimani and Abu Mahdi Al-Muhandis, leader of the Iran-backed Popular Mobilization Forces in Iraq.
The op-ed called out Dearborn Mayor Abdullah H. Hammoud by name and he responded, in typical fashion, by shrieking “Islamophobia” as loudly as he could and called out the police to protect the city’s majority Muslim population from the mobs of Wall Street Journal readers about to descend on them with rolled up copies of the paper.
The media, putting on its straight face, repeated Hammoud’s claims of Islamophobia and the claims that the Muslim population in Dearborn is threatened, without asking him about a single of the statements in the WSJ op-ed or about his own response to Oct 7.
In Abdullah Hammoud’s response, he did not condemn Hamas, he did condemn Israel, and began his response, posted on Oct 7, with, “Israel’s decades of illegal military occupation and imprisonment of Gaza make peace impossible and tragic violence inevitable. Israel has trapped millions of Palestinians in Gaza in what is recognized by the international community as the world’s largest open-air prison. Failure to recognize this context is the inability to comprehend what is unfolding overseas.”
The context for the Hamas kidnapping, massacre, and atrocities committed against Israeli civilians including little children.
He then threw in, “Hypocrisy is sending billions of tax-payer dollars to Ukrainians fighting for their homeland and championing their armed struggle as ‘resistance,’ while condemning even peaceful forms of Palestinian resistance, such as boycotts, as illegitimate.”
In between repeating Hammoud’s sob stories, the media couldn’t find the time to ask him for clarification about this statement.
This is why Hammoud is one of the Islamist politicians featured in the David Horowitz Freedom Center’s ‘Election Jihad’ report.
Islamist politicians are crawling into political office across Michigan and the country, even well beyond Dearborn, and they make little secret of their terrorist sympathies. They cry “Islamophobia” even while they support hate and murder.
The worse the Jihad, the more they shout, “Islamophobia”.

Many people today claim that there were no Muslims celebrating with dancing and candy after the Towers fell on Sept. 11, 2001. Even more now celebrate the Hamas attack of Oct. 7, 2023 while denying such at their convenience. It is difficult to tell which they enjoy more, killing or lying.
Chaya says
I think the days of denying may be over and the days of screaming loudly for death of Jews (Christians, you’re next) are here. It’s confusing to some because as they shout for genocide of Jews they accuse Israel of genocide.

Ron Kelmell says
By now, if anyone doubts the intentions of the dangerous, aggressive superstition Islam, founded by a known killer, well, they simply can’t handle the truth.
Algorithmic Analyst says
Leftists and Islamist politicians are crawling into political office around here also.

They’re organizing voters everywhere.
NAVY ET1 says
The suffixes phobia or phobic are highly overused in this context, and undoubtedly their uses are intentional. They denote fear. That’s incorrect. The suffix misia, from the Greek word misos, means hatred. Perhaps we should try to use Islamomisia more often in conversations so as to promote authenticity in our language and culture.

Language authenticity??? What would happen to the New Leftist Collegiate Dictionary Unabridged Version that has to be published on a daily basis for updates to the meanings and invention of words?
SPURWING PLOVER says
We sont want Islam or Sharia Laws Enforced upon us and We Don’t want Hamas in America Period

The founding fathers would be so insulted..
This garbage is NOT assimilating into the US culture.. This is dominating the US culture, and it will lead to war.
BLSinSC says
There should be a process to strip these people of their CITIZENSHIP and EXILE them from the USA! The only way we’ll ever get this mess under control is to show the MASSES that you are either an AMERICAN and BELIEVE in OUR CONSTITUTION or look forward to a ONE WAY TRIP OUT of the USA!!
It is abundantly clear that islam is NOT COMPATIBLE with Our Constitution and should not be allowed to fester like an anal cancer!
What other “religion” is predicated on ruling the world and is ok to just “strike the necks” of unbelievers!
