Osama Siblani declares the Arab-American community’s unstoppable ascent to political dominance in the U.S., aiming for control from local towns to the White House.
In a recent address on May 10, 2024, at the Islamic Center of America in Dearborn, Michigan, Osama Siblani, the radical editor and publisher of The Arab-American News, declared the Arab-American community’s growing influence in the United States. Speaking at a terror-tied dinner hosted by the Lebanese International Business Council, Siblani proudly asserted, “Forty years ago, we had a mayor for this town who talked about the Arab problem. Guess what? The Arabs are ruling Dearborn, Dearborn Heights, and Hamtramck.”
The Shift in Demographics and Politics
This proclamation marks a significant shift in the demographic and political landscape of these Islamized American cities, which have seen a substantial influx of Arab and Muslim immigrants over the past few decades. What was once a warning of an “Arab problem” has turned into a reality of Arab leadership and governance in these areas.
Ambitious Political Aspirations
Siblani’s speech wasn’t just a reflection on the past; it was a forecast of an ambitious future. He confidently stated, “We are on the road to the White House, to Congress, to the decision-making everywhere in the United States.” His remarks underscore a vision of Arab Americans not just integrating into American society but ascending to the highest echelons of power.
Troubling International Connections
The dinner also honored former Lebanese General Security Agency Director Major General Abbas Ibrahim, known for his terrorist ties to Lebanese Hizbullah. This highlighted the troubling international Islamic terror connections and influence within the Arab-American community. Siblani’s statements about the community’s political aspirations were unequivocal, indicating a strategic and concerted effort to achieve significant Islamic political power in the U.S.

This address follows a series of public appearances by Siblani and other Arab-American leaders, including Dearborn Mayor Abdullah Hammoud. In November 2023, Siblani and Hammoud shared the stage at a pro-Palestinian rally where extreme rhetoric was prominent. Siblani declared a commitment to “clean” the U.S. Congress and White House of “bloodthirsty killers,” promising a “great victory” both in Washington, D.C., and in Palestine.
Islamic Supremacists in Action
The rally’s Islamic extremist tone was not an isolated incident. At the “Nakba Day” [the Day of Catastrophe – a protest against the creation of Israel] rally in 2022, attended by U.S. Rep. Rashida Tlaib, Siblani praised Palestinian martyrs and advocated for lifting Palestinians “all the way to victory,” endorsing the use of stones, guns, planes, drones, and rockets (See MEMRI TV clip 9566 and 9598). His terrorist rhetoric emphasized transnational solidarity and a violent readiness to employ all means necessary to achieve their goals. For more on Siblani, see clips 10927 and 10901.
Islamic Infiltration and Future Prospects
Siblani’s troubling declarations at the Islamic Center of America serve as a stark reminder of the Islamic infiltration into American politics and the emergence of new Muslim power dynamics. His confidence in the Arab-American community’s path to influence is a testament to their growing numbers (jihad by the womb) and organizational strength. He succinctly said, “The best is yet to come.”
The Hijrah Agenda
As previously reported at RAIR Foundation, the purpose of Islamic migration, known as hijrah, is to expand Islam through emigration; Muslims are just following the example of Muhammad (their religious, political, and military leader) and his followers from Mecca to Medina.
Hijra remains the model to this day for jihadists who seek to populate and dominate new lands. To emigrate in the cause of Allah is considered in Islam to be a highly respected act.
“And whoever emigrates for the cause of Allah will find on the earth many locations and abundance,” says the Qur’an. “And whoever leaves his home as an emigrant to Allah and His Messenger and then death overtakes him, his reward has already become incumbent upon Allah. And Allah is ever Forgiving and Merciful.” (4:100)
“I charge you with five of what Allah has charged me with to assemble, to listen, to obey, to immigrate and to wage Jihad for the sake of Allah” – Quote from the Hadith.
This wave of demographic change and the corresponding political ascent in cities like Dearborn, Dearborn Heights, and Hamtramck signal broader national shifts. Siblani concluded, “So, brothers and sisters, we are on the road. I am saying this because yesterday, when we welcomed our brother and leader, [former Lebanese security chief] Abbas Ibrahim, at the airport, he has seen and witnessed the kind of power and connections that we have.”
Siblani’s vision is clear: a strategic, determined, and influential Islamic Arab-American community rising to prominence in American political life, reshaping the nation’s future from local towns becoming Islamized to the corridors of power in Washington, D.C. With very little pushback from Americans, Muslims continue to capture different parts of America piece by piece until one day soon, we become an Islamic nation.
The European Example and Future Implications
Learn from the crisis in Europe, where Islamic supremacists who have settled there have a clear objective: to uphold their loyalty to Islamic law (Sharia) while simultaneously enhancing their influence and control in Europe and undermining Western laws and values.
These Muslims present a range of demands with the aim of making the host country increasingly accommodating to their radical beliefs and fostering the process of Islamization. Some of these demands include ensuring the availability of Halal foods (a Jihad money-making scheme to spread Sharia worldwide) without alcohol and pork, advocating for courts to operate based on Islamic Sharia law rather than local statutes, avoiding the recognition of Christian holidays, eliminating Holocaust education that covers the genocide of Jews, establishing a banking system in accordance with Islamic law, and permitting Muslim women to wear the niqab, covering their faces in public spaces. Additionally, requests involve permitting child brides and sexual mutilation of young girls, state-funded polygamy, among other demands.
Their goal is to shape the host country into a place that attracts more Islamic migrants. Muslim migrants do not want to assimilate into Western host countries; they aim to transform those nations into Islamic entities. They don’t need to use force to achieve this, and they are content with a gradual process, as the Quran encourages patience.
America’s Future at Stake
As Muammar Qaddafi, the former Libyan president, once remarked, “We Muslims don’t need to use force against Europe because our emigration and high birth rates will accomplish our objectives.
