Michigan: Dearborn Residents On Terrorist Watch List Second Only To New York

It is quite revealing when US states that have the highest number of mosques also have the highest number terror-affiliated Islamist organizations. Naturally, more mosques means more Muslims, and the fact that an increase in the Muslim population sees a direct correlation with an increase in the number of terror-affiliated entities is — contrary to the white-washed drivel often spouted by the likes of CAIR and regurgitated by their politically-correct enablers —  proof in and of itself that Islam does indeed have something to do with Islamic terror …

The “Prophet” Mohammed, Al Bukhari Hadith 2977, “I have been made victorious with terror.”

By Robert Spencer, Jihad Watch – “‘At 96,000 residents, Dearborn is much smaller than the other cities in the top five, suggesting that its significant Muslim population—40 percent of its population is of Arab descent, according to the U.S. Census Bureau—has been disproportionately targeted for watchlisting.’ Hamas-linked CAIR is already manning the barricades over this, but after all, there is no effect without a cause. The idea that the Muslim residents of Dearborn were ‘disproportionately targeted for watchlisting’ because of some official ‘racism’ and ‘Islamophobia’ is howlingly absurd. There is jihad activity among Muslims, including in the U.S., and so for authorities to be alert to that fact is entirely reasonable.

‘Dearborn residents on terrorist watch list second only to New York, report says,’ by Aysha Jamali, Press & Guide, August 5, 2014:

Among the U.S. cities that have the most residents on the government’s terrorist watch list is one that stands out because of its comparatively small population: Dearborn.

Dearborn, a suburb of Detroit, was described by The Intercept, an online news site that reports on issues of national security, as having the second-highest concentration of people designated by the government as “known or suspected terrorists.”

The report said that Dearborn’s ranking, just behind New York City and ahead of Houston despite their significantly larger populations, has to do with its concentration of Arab and Muslim Americans.

Dearborn has the largest percentage of Arab Americans in the country, according to the report.

“At 96,000 residents, Dearborn is much smaller than the other cities in the top five, suggesting that its significant Muslim population—40 percent of its population is of Arab descent, according to the U.S. Census Bureau—has been disproportionately targeted for watchlisting,” the report said.

The top five U.S. cities on the watchlist for “known or suspected terrorists” are:

1. New York
2. Dearborn
3. Houston
4. San Diego
5. Chicago
