Fits for me.
Though I think I'd rather have seen them turnned loose naked amidst all the relatives of those who died in 911 . . . say on some lawless island somewhere.
...............where they proceeded to illegally cross Americas Southern border in secret in preparation for a terrorist act within the US.
................where they proceeded to a large Northern Mexican city where they could book a flight such that there would be NO 3 hour lead time to get a warning before the plane that they hijacked was plowed into Houston, San Diego or LA.
The ringleader of the AQ Mexico/South American operation Jafar the Pilot (Adnan G. El Shukrijumah) is still at large...

Thanks.
Suspicious Muslim passenger was removed by Special Operations Forces from Boston-bound British Airways Flight 0215 on 4/3 at Heathrow...

And even as we speak they are migrating across the southern border...no problems there../sarcasm
Dead on.. Keep up the good work!
Vigilance is key!
" U.S. officials fear that Latin America, and more particularly Mexico—with its porous U.S. border—may become a staging ground for Al Qaeda."
I don't think the federal government should be in charge of security; it should be the airline's responsibility. I think that the stockholders of the airline ought to be able to authorize the management to search anyone who wants to board its airplanes it damned well pleases, or do you think the constitutional right to property should be abolished?

Slick Willie once taught Constitutional Law at a university.
During his impeachment hearings Slick said "I am not a Constitutional Scholar"!
Now I see many FReepers (SLeepers?) fabricating "private rights" when attempting to board commercial passenger aircraft.
One on FR posted "if a terrorist gets thru......."???????
What?
His Justice Ginsberg worldview of "rights" and "liberties" is that sub-human Islamic terrorists should not be searched at airports as it offends his/her personal agenda.
Many here on FR served or are serving in the US military - from JR down a new green NG volunteer
As much as I have contempt for Bill Clinton - I doubt that these on FR "inventing" new rights can stand up to Professor Clinton on Constitutional Law - Slick knew it and used it in unlawful ways
But Slick never had any Muslim pilots flying Air Force One or handling his luggage.
He also did not give a lift to Mohammed and In-Sani.
If you attempt to enter a bar in NYC and the bouncer stops you and turns you away you have no recourse under law.
The airline industry is a private business - you want to fly - you and your baggage are subject to security searches, scanners, head-scans, ID checking, striping to the skin if you are suspect.
Don't like it?
Walk.
Swim.
Drive.
And Norman Mineta has our national security as his [third or fourth] priority.
While an elite corps of uniformed screeners gropes babes and humiliates granny and World War II veterans--but not more than two males of Middle Eastern descent--prior to [some, but not necessarily all or most] flights.
We got the culprit after the last botched FBI investigation--Colleen Rowley.
We don't need to be concerned about our border with Mexico because that would be racist and would result in cabbages costing more than a Lexus.
Meanwhile, on Earth:
Why we didn't contract El Al security consultants to design our response is a case study in multicultural politically correct death wish.
The proper response to finding these perps on planes en route to our air space is not to turn the flight around and release them at the embarkation point--release them in flight, and if they survive it is the will of Allah.
Or, in the more humanitarian alternative, we shuttle them to Suncoast Hospice and lavish them with the euphoric ecstasy of starvation and dehydration.
In any event, just because they are terrorists does not mean we can violate their constitutional rights--wait, it does.
But just because they are nonuniformed combatants doesn't mean we can detain them indefinitely--now that we broach that topic, we can do precisely that.
Let Ted Kennedy stick to getting plastered and suffocating young women in his Oldsmobile, and leave the nation's security to sober adults.
Tell us how you really feel, Phil!
How is it, when nearly the whole cabinet was replaced in January, that Mineta wasn't the FIRST TO GO? What am I missing?
Mineta should have been out the door on 9-12-01.
Agreed!
I love it. Why didn't I think of that first?
Touché......very funny.Could also enroll them in Egypt's suicide Boing 737 suicide pilots' school.............
Char :)
Mini-Mineta bump!
Wow, you are energised today!!
