From Jihad Watch:
Good news, in an update on this story. Meanwhile, of course, we wait to find out the grounds on which another group of Christians was arrested there, as BWI -- Breathing While Infidel -- is not yet against Michigan law.
If it's an Islamic festival, call it an Islamic festival. Otherwise, stop hiding behind the generality of "Arab-American" while persecuting Arab-Americans who also happen to be Christian, but refuse to be dhimmis in a free country.
"Local news: Pastor gets OK for handouts," from the Detroit Free Press, June 19:
A Christian pastor can distribute literature on the streets at this weekend's Arab-American festival along Warren Avenue in Dearborn, a three-judge panel of the U.S. 6th Circuit Court of Appeals ruled.
George Saieg of California wants to hand out pamphlets aimed at converting Muslims.
The Thursday ruling overturned a District Court decision that supported Dearborn's policy, which said Saieg and anyone else must hand out literature only around their booths because of crowd control concerns.
"Crowd concerns."
The Ann Arbor-based Thomas More Law Center filed suit on behalf of Saieg.

Once-banned professor to address fund-raiser
