Really, well then perhaps every last muslim that wants be on a plane should be stripped searched then cavity searched then, huh?
Here in the U.S. the elderly, anyone wearing a leg brace, using crutches, all over 40 5'1," blond, grandmothers (me) and middle-aged men wearing running shoes are treated with suspicion.
I'm tired of hearing, "Whatever it takes to make us safe while flying," crap. They aren't doing "whatever it takes to make us safe," they KNOW the exact type to scrutinize, refuse flying privileges to - it's Islamist men or women NOT the rest of us.
I'm sorry for all Muslims who are not terrorists but if it were radicalized Amish, men wearing beards, long black coats and hats, you'd better believe, they would not even be allowed on public transportation!
We have known for some time exactly who desires to harm us -- they tell us. It is only our PC government who pretend NOT to know - including and especially Bush, now it's Obama.
What do we know about the backgrounds of TSA employees; baggage-handlers; crews that clean and service aircraft; and workers at all airports -- NOTHING!
Who are treated as terrorists, innocent travelers and business people, no one with the slightest intention to kill, maim and destroy flyers and aircraft but we are treated as potential threats when everyone in government, law enforcement and the American public know exactly who to profile. Israel does it and you don't hear anything about Muslims attempting to blow up their aircraft.
Even the liberals in Israel, and believe me, there are plenty, but they aren't screaming about the "poor Palestinians" being subjected to searches at airports. Palestinians aren't suing the Israeli government for infringements on their "privacy."
When we have Muslims gathering making suspicious statements and acts and are removed from flights, some ACLU lawyers jump to their defense.
