Arabic people are concentrated in the Detroit metropolitan area. Dearborn was almost predominantly Arabic over 30 years ago. Hamtramck - a small enclave surrounded by the city of Detroit- became predominantly Arabic more recently.
While this is interesting ethnography, that is all it is. For one thing, not all Arabic people are Muslims.

It's amazing they're not hell holes of severed Christian heads and burned out synagogues.

Hamtramck is an interesting place. I encountered the location a bit in a genealogy case for someone of Polish descent. This led me to records there in the 1920s or maybe 1930s. The place had many Polish back then. What makes that interesting is that at the time, there was probably also a lot of racism directed toward the Polish. Hamtramck was incorporated as a city in 1922 and its first mayor was Polish. His name was Peter Jezewski. He spent 2 years in prison for violating Prohibition laws. Can you just imagine what traditional anglo-protestant white conservatives were saying at the time? Well in 1924, some of these conservatives (of Dutch and English descent) tried to oust the mayor by using the governor due to a claim that the city became a center of "white slaves and narcotic traffic" as related to various locations of alcohol sale where presumably prohibition was not being enforced. One should be able to notice the paranoid xenophobic parallels of today.

Muslim communities are known to act irrationally when it comes to their religion and Palestine.When their families are banned from entering the country that’ll show Biden what’s what.Yes, I'm sure they will be much better off if Trump wins.
My point was that this islamopphobia crap month was prompted by Biden's fear that he is losing muslim votes by supporting Israel.
Too bad US does not have a lot of russians to vote this piece of shit out.

That's just stupid. Islamophobia Awareness Month was started in the UK in 2012 and it's not something official or celebrated or even very much known in the US.Muslim communities are known to act irrationally when it comes to their religion and Palestine.When their families are banned from entering the country that’ll show Biden what’s what.Yes, I'm sure they will be much better off if Trump wins.

You sound like you support Hamas. We know your dictatorial leader does.
Too bad Russians don't have the balls to get rid of him.
