And .. even if this new “race” might build bombs in their basement, you would also be required to rent to them.

The liberals get more lunatic all the time. I think they see the writing on the wall .. and hear the stampede of feet heading away from their lunacy policies.

America, you are not allowed to be a safe, prosperous and happy country .. oh no, you have to be down in the muck with everybody else.

Lunacy ..!!

But I thought race was a social construct?

I expect the purpose is to allow the Middle East/North African identifiers to be moved to the head of all lines, skip vetting, and automatically qualify for zillions in handouts from us, no questions asked. It would just make it faster and easier for 0bama and his ilk to get our money moved to these muslims.

Nazi Germany II?

The answer is YES, at least in regard to obsession with demographic classification of people on the part of government. It's sick to the core!

In the US, the so-called "minority" groups designated benefit by special privileges granted them by almighty Big Brother. In the meantime, those of us of European descent are treated as second class citizens, no matter how much we and are ancestors have contributed to betterment of the American republic.

What ever happened to EQUAL RIGHTS and EQUAL JUSTICE UNDER LAW in the United States?

And BTW, you can bet the farm that immigrants from Israel and their descendants will be excluded from the new politically correct "Middle East" designation!

Of course it’s for benefits and employment and college admissions. Why else would he do it? To make corrections in the Crayola box? To get a Nobel in Anthropology?

Right now the lawsuits have been based on the hijab, as far as I am aware of them. That does not protect the men.

“And BTW, you can bet the farm that immigrants from Israel and their descendants will be excluded from the new politically correct “Middle East” designation!”

Yes, that was my first thought, too. It’s just so obvious that that is a prime goal of this particular aim at creating racist divisions of the people of the world based on religion and race. Just as Jews are already actively excluded from all those “People of Color” racist conferences that are actually organized and shamelessly carried out in various academic disciplines.

I wonder if the Republicans would accept this (with a separate category for Israeli Jews), if it was accompanied by a restoration of the old immigration quotas act.

That is, Israeli Jews still have dual citizenship.

Ethnic western and northern Europeans get a good quota.

Some Asians get good quotas, like Japanese and Koreans.

Middle East/North Africans get a quota that is a negative number, in that Obama took in far too many already. Only when they are officially “integrated” is there a possibility of a very limited future quota.

Jews, Christians, Yazidis, and Bahai from North Africa and the Middle East will not be included. In so far as Obama’s father’s tribe is a mixture of Africans and Muslim Arabs, I wonder if he would be included.

Are the skeletal structures consistently different from the other races?

No. I should have noted the article is incorrect, the proposal is to establish a new ethnicity not race. I'm told by the left we're all immigrants, and that's true. In many cases our ancestors. Not sure I agree my ancestors "immigration" status is relevant to me, but if it is I'm offended the government needs to track my ethnicity. For how long? Two generations like a certain central European nation last century, or four generations like the Inquisition. When does anyone become American. This ethnicity stuff is total BS.

This is so that the left can call more people racists.

Perhaps, but I suspect it's to promote immigration from our new found ethnicity.

At first, I thought he was splitting Africans into thirds, but now I realize he wants Mediterraneans sans Southern Europeans.

Yeah, mentioned this to a Greek friend today, told him he's stuck white. He's OK with that.
