So you admit that London looks like Dearborn.
No. Not at all. Dearborn is chock full of black ghosts. In London there are too many – even one is too many – but the proportion of the London poplulation is tiny.
And never mind Dearborn, have you read this description of Brooklyn by Sarah Honig in the Jerusalem Post?
“I suspected that some supernatural time-and-space warp had transported me to Islamabad. This couldn’t be Brooklyn.
Women strode attired in hijabs and male passersby sported all manner of Muslim headgear and long flowing tunics….I decided to photograph the masjid, sensing it could make a story. Kathy became frantic. “Don’t you dare,” she almost yelled. As I slipped the camera back into my handbag, she explained that several weeks before my arrival two journalists, Bos Smith and Paul Williams, HAD photographed a similar Brooklyn mosque, Masjid al-Takwa. They were grabbed by 20 ninja-uniformed men, shoved into the mosque cellar, held captive and roughly interrogated by the group’s henna-bearded leader, Ali Kareem. He released them only after they fibbed that they were interested in converting to Islam. On a subsequent visit to the site they were accosted again and an attempt was made to seize and break their camera.”
So much for freedom of the press in the good old US of A.
Still, continue to feel smug and arrogant.
