This is a video of David Wood and Nabeel Qureshi asking questions at Arabfest, Dearborn. The date is June 21st, 2009. There was a booth at the festival which had a banner titled "Islam: Got Questions? Get Answers." >From their table, we picked up a pamphlet claiming that Islam promotes peace. We noticed that it was full of poor logic and errors, so we decided to make a video refuting it. We went to the booth that gave us the pamphlet to give them the opportunity to defend their claims. Security, however, stepped in and forced us to turn off our camera. We left the booth, received advice from police, and found out that the actions of the security guards were illegal. We went back to the booth to record a potential answer again. Realizing that the Muslims present had no answer, we left. When we came outside, we were asked some questions by two young men, who had been sent by security to entrap us. While we responded to them, festival security started assaulting us, as you will see in this video. The conclusion of this video is a mob of festival security attacking our cameras, pushing us back, kicking our legs, and lying to the police. We ask you, is it a coincidence that the city with the highest percentage of Muslims in the United States is the city where Christianity is not allowed to be represented (let alone preached) on a public sidewalk? Is it coincidence that in this city, people will say "No way!" when we say "This is the United States of America"? Is this what will happen when Islam takes over the United States?

Unfortunately I do not think this is an aberration, it is becoming the norm and I believe the root problem is the inability and or unwillingness of Muslims to integrate. When I look around at the Muslims I know in Dearborn I see many, many who are integrated successfully and productive members of society. Many others do not appear so and I think the primary reason has to do with when they came to America. The Muslims who I see as integrated all came in the 1950's - 1970's. Recent arrivals haven't been integrated as successfully and I believe we can lay the blame squarely on multiculturalism. When we moved to Dearborn in the early 1990's I was surprised to see women in burkas at the DMV who were requesting / requiring the help of DMV employees who were Arab women and receiving the special treatment. We have not done our selves any favors by allowing the bilingual option at government agencies and I believe we have allowed people, Muslims in particular, to remain outside the mainstream of America and actively choose not to integrate. This will bear extremely bad fruit in the future. America has successfully integrated people from around the globe for better than two centuries and it remains the best way to bring Muslims out of the past and into the future but this will not happen if we provide avenues that are separate but equal.
