Detentions and disappearances: how ICE has driven fear into Michigan’s Arab communities​

Arab Americans in Dearborn and beyond are being swept up by ICE at places of worship and work, with devastating consequences

“In the past, [Arab Americans who supported Trump] would say things like: ‘You got to control the border,’” says Abdul-Galil Ahmed of the Yemen American Cultural Center, who says he didn’t vote for Trump or Harris in the 2024 presidential election. “Now, the mood has changed, they are saying this is too much. We have become a target.”

I feel like the Arab community didn't get the quid pro quo they were aiming for.

They're handling it pretty well though and I don't see them protesting so I could be wrong

these people all come from authoritarian countries.

Trump is the norm for them. No reason to push back.

They thought they were exempt from this type of treatment. It's the model minority mindset, "I'm not black, I'm OJ".

This dude has been telling us exactly what he thought of all non-white immigrants and even native born minorities since he rode down the gold escalator, and arguably for decades before that.

if you guys still plan on crashing out over Israel vs Palestine in '26 and '28, i don't know if i can respect the strategy, it still shouldn't even be a top 10 issue; but i understand

what a bloodthirsty, disgusting, selfish, pig of a country israel is. dragging us into this war has been an absolute disgrace

Obviously there are a lot of other issues, but having a government that is not going to bend over every time Israel says so is not unreasonable :yeshrug:

Personally I don't enjoy being hated around the world and having my tax dollars go towards blowing up schools

Sounds good, but folks gotta couple that with something else or you find yourself in this same situation.

End up supporting Tucker Carlson :mjlol:
