MORE FROM THE MULTICULTURALISM FRONT – AT 8:56 A.M. ET:   Once again we urge you not to be judgmental, not to think, not to feel, not to be anything but accepting, and a little brain dead.  From the Dallas Morning News:

A prominent Islamic scholar who has battled accusations of extremist beliefs has been arrested along with his wife on federal charges that they married other people to get U.S. citizenship.

I am shocked.  Quickly, my pills. 

Ibrahim Abdelrahman Dremali and Safaa Rashad Eissa were arrested by immigration agents, Arlington police and the FBI on Oct. 6 on a warrant out of Des Moines, Iowa. They were released on their own recognizance after appearing before a federal judge in Fort Worth the same day.

They are scheduled to enter pleas Nov. 12 in Iowa on charges of conspiracy to defraud the United States, which can carry a five-year sentence, and procurement of citizenship or naturalization unlawfully, which can result in 10 to 25 years in prison.

Dremali, who earned degrees in geology and Islamic law in Cairo, immigrated to the U.S. in 1989 and has served as an imam, or Muslim spiritual leader, in south Florida, Iowa and Austin and worked at Islamic schools.

This summer, he and his wife moved to a house on Virginia Lane near the Islamic Society of Arlington, where he helped lead a local Islamic school.

COMMENT:  Read the whole story.  Another gem comes to America.  This is actually an illegal immigration case, and I wonder if it's the tip of the iceberg.

But how will Janet Napolitano label it?  A manmade disaster?  It's a marriage scam.  Maybe she'll call it a couple-made disaster.  Or a caterer-made disaster.  Or...a good thing misinterpreted by dumb Americans who don't understand what Obama is doing. 

We look forward to the explanation at the next court date.
