IVANA TRUMP ESCORTED OFF PLANE: NAPOLITANO DECLARES 'THE SYSTEM WORKED'
December 30, 2009
In response to a Nigerian Muslim trying to blow up a flight from Amsterdam to Detroit on Christmas Day, the government will now prohibit international travelers from going to the bathroom in the last hour before the plane lands.
Terrorists who plan to bomb planes during the first seven hours of the eight-hour flight, however, should face no difficulties, provided they wait until after the complimentary beverage service has been concluded.
How do they know Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab didn't wait until the end of the flight to try to detonate explosives because he heard the stewardess announce that the food service was over and seats would have to be placed in their upright position? I can't finish my snack? This plane is going down!
Also prohibited in the last hour of international flights will be: blankets, pillows, computers and in-flight entertainment. Another triumph in Janet Napolitano's "Let's stay one step behind the terrorists" policy!
For the past eight years, approximately 2 million Americans a day have been subjected to humiliating searches at airport security checkpoints, forced to remove their shoes and jackets, to open their computers, and to remove all liquids from their carry-on bags, except minuscule amounts in marked 3-ounce containers placed in Ziploc plastic bags -- folding sandwich bags are verboten -- among other indignities.
This, allegedly, was the price we had to pay for safe airplanes. The one security precaution the government refused to consider was to require extra screening for passengers who looked like the last three-dozen terrorists to attack airplanes.
Since Muslims took down Pan Am Flight 103 over Lockerbie, Scotland, in 1988, every attack on a commercial airliner has been committed by foreign-born Muslim men with the same hair color, eye color and skin color. Half of them have been named Mohammed.
An alien from the planet "Not Politically Correct" would have surveyed the situation after 9/11 and said: "You are at war with an enemy without uniforms, without morals, without a country and without a leader -- but the one advantage you have is they all look alike. ... What? ... What did I say?"
The only advantage we have in a war with stateless terrorists was ruled out of order ab initio by political correctness.
And so, despite 5 trillion Americans opening laptops, surrendering lip gloss and drinking breast milk in airports day after day for the past eight years, the government still couldn't stop a Nigerian Muslim from nearly blowing up a plane over Detroit on Christmas Day.
The "warning signs" exhibited by this particular passenger included the following:
His name was Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab.
He's Nigerian.
He's a Muslim.
His name was Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab.
He boarded a plane in Lagos, Nigeria.
He paid nearly $3,000 in cash for his ticket.
He had no luggage.
His name was Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab.

The government refuses to perform the only possibly effective security check -- search Muslims --Read the rest at AnnCoulter.Com
-- so instead it harasses infinitely compliant Americans. Will that help avert a terrorist attack? No, but the Americans don't complain.

In before the “Get her a sandwich!” comment.
“In addition to the no blanket, no computer, no bathroom rule, perhaps the airlines could add this to their preflight announcement about seat belts and emergency exits: “Should a passenger sitting near you attempt to detonate an explosive device, you may be called upon to render emergency assistance. Would you be willing to do so under those circumstances? If not we will assign you another seat ...”
Of course i will be willing. But Please let me keep my TWEEZERS!
Obama's anti-terrorist system is working. Doggone it.
No ILLEGAL immigration opponent, pro-lifer, conservative, evangelical, or military veteran has ever downed an airliner.
Ivana Trump was so OBVIOUSLY a troublemaker; the rights of those kids far exceeded hers.
But lonely guys from Nigeria? They MUST be accorded every courtesy, and even given a little encouragement.
The next guy will make it through. Because he will ignite the bomb somewhere out over the Atlantic, much like the Air France flight AF447 ‘disappeared’ over the middle of the ocean, ostensibly because it encountered some weird weather. We just don’t know.
Or maybe they ran into something like happened to Oceanic Flight 815, as they were passing over a mysterious island that nobody can locate on a map anywhere.
An hour is a long time - particularly for an oldtimer. If you have to “go” are they going to make you wet your pants?
Ann always get it right, BTTT!
Just twist toward the window and p*ss on their carpet.

One hour. That’s torture. Even in church one gets to get up, kneel, sit, stand, sing and walk. A sermon in a foreign language would go by faster than that one hour law. Waterboarding takes less time.

(And there was one more in the Midwest/north east which I can't pinpoint right now in Google searches.
The point is, she's right. The truth is obvious and we're in denial. But it feels really good!
I wonder, how will this affect the Obama and Holder decision to reemphasize white collar crime and civil rights by pulling resources away from counter terrorism, even though they never officially stated the de-emphasiszing of CT. Without additional resources, something has to pay for the increase in resources for white collar and civil rights, and where this would come from was clear to all, even though no one said anything. The idea of the administration is to do things like this without making any public announcement regard cuts or reallocation of resources in such a case, since when something does happen, this would immediately cause for a public outcry and criticism with people pointing the finger to the administration and DoJ.
Brilliant! had me rolling on the floor until the underlying truth of what she was saying sank in.
Profiling is NOT a bad thing. If 100% of the terrorists were 5’6” blonde, 40ish women, I would be REALLY mad if they DIDN’T triple search me!
Just so you don’t get mad - I’d be willing to do it.
