It isn't the countries themselves as supporters of terror, but rather the likelihood that their citizens might be involved.
Somalia doesn't even have a government, so they couldn't be listed as a "supporter of terror" either.
Let's face it, we need to profile based on what people's names are, their age and their appearance.
It wouldn't even be a freakin' debate if it hadn't been for the use of profiling to pull over drug dealers travelling between New York and New Jersey.
I had an employee who is French, but dark-skinned of Algerian origin. Whenever he travelled alone, he would always have problems. When he travelled with me, never. The reason why? - No one who looks like me would be travelling with a terrorist. Him travelling alone, however was suspicious. Less when he was wearing a suit though. Europeans profile. It makes sense.

Again, however, I can count on my fingers the number of citizens of the CIS republics and India have been involved in international terror plots of any sort. None. Primarily because most of these people arent moslems (India has as a percentage as many muslims as france). Well the CIS citizens are, but I think theyve been effectively communistized, and arent of a radical bent of mind.
Pakistanis, yes, in fact I read just yesterday an article on FR from the Australian times detailing how every plot involving terror since 9/11 has had a pakistan connection according to the FBI.
