Feb 4 (Reuters) - The mayor of Dearborn, Michigan, said the city's police officers were ramping up their presence across places of worship and major infrastructure points following an opinion piece in the Wall Street Journal that he called "bigoted" and "Islamophobic."

The WSJ published the piece on Friday headlined as "Welcome to Dearborn, America's Jihad Capital, opens new tab." The city's mayor and rights advocates condemned the piece as anti-Arab and racist for suggesting the city's residents, including religious leaders and politicians, supported Palestinian Islamist group Hamas and extremism.

"Effective immediately - Dearborn police will ramp up its presence across all places of worship and major infrastructure points. This is a direct result of the inflammatory @WSJ opinion piece that has led to an alarming increase in bigoted and Islamophobic rhetoric online targeting the city of Dearborn," the mayor added.

The above is no different than if in 1941 we had a Germans in Frankenmuth Michigan siding with the Nazis


We wouldn't have put up with that back then and we shouldn't now
