Miss USA 2010 Rima Fakih, an Arab Muslim, arrested for DUI then lies about it

Posted Monday, December 5, 2011, 6:45 AM

As described in a video-containing article by Christopher Santarelli for Glenn Beck's news website, The Blaze, Rima Fakih, the much-celebrated Arab Muslim winner of the 2010 Miss USA Pageant, was arrested early Saturday morning for DUI. She then lied about it on her Facebook and Twitter accounts, saying another woman with the same name had been the one arrested.

According to Santarelli's article, "Miss USA 2010 Rima Fakih Caught Lying on Twitter About Drunk Driving Arrest!":

Former Miss USA Rima Fakih was caught acting not very lady-like Saturday. The former Miss Michigan was pulled over in her home state early yesterday morning, where sources tell WXYZ she blew a .20, which is more than twice the legal blood-alcohol content while driving limit in the state.

To make matters worse, she spent her time sitting in jail Saturday writing on her Twitter and Facebook accounts that she was out of the state, and a different Fakih had been arrested for drunk driving. WXYZ reports that those updates have since disappeared:

Debbie Schlussel caught the misleading tweets, and notes that this is not the first controversy that Fakih has attracted: …

… Fakih just returned from a trip to Hezbollah-controlled Lebanon, where she was feted and celebrated by her terrorist friends and relatives, many of whom are members and top officials of Hezbollah and Harakat Amal (the Shi’ite Amal Militia), as well as “martyrs,” terrorists who died in terrorist attacks against Israelis.  Fakih has gone to Lebanon quite often, since she’s a nobody and a never-has-been here in the States. . . unless you count her recently being honored by the openly pro-HAMAS/pro-Hezbollah, Muslim-dominated American Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee (ADC), whose Michigan leader,Imad Hamad, was a Palestinian terrorist who committed immigration and marriage fraud.  (Hamad raised the money for Fakih’s pageant forays.)  Right now, Fakih’s only hope for a “career” is working for WWE or some other similarly sleazy pro wrestling enterprise.  And she’s in talks with WWE to do a reality show.” …

… In May 2010, Fakih won the Miss USA Pageant, becoming the first Miss Michigan to win the title since 1993 and the first Arab and Muslim American to win the pageant.

Among the comments left to Santarelli's story were the following:

"azjoannie": "I wonder if the pageant officials would be so tolerant and kind to any other contestant of another ethnicity."

"godlovinmom": "she spent her time in jail twittering….ummm what?"

"Krazy_Kreepy_Ketchup": "A palestinian muslim drinking alcohol??? NOOOOO. Where is CAIR trying to erase this story??? First, she won because she is called a 'palestinian' muslim. Period. She should not even be crowned anything but the queen of bacon. Second, if this were a white girl it would be breaking news on every network including Fox. Third, where is the outcry from the muslim community saying that her habits do not represent their religion? Where are the fatwahs calling for her to be stoned (with rocks) or hung? This is why we need to really keep tabs on this stuff. This story will be buried by the arab dollars that bribe/fund the media."
