Just a few hours after I explained on Jihad Watch what was wrong with Michael Totten’s pro-Albanian-supremacist post on Commentary magazine’s website, the following item was posted on the site. It concerns an article that came out in the Rochester Democrat and Chronicle last week on the one-year anniversary of the Ft. Dix arrests of four Albanians, the significance of which becomes clear if you notice that the woman’s name is Albanian. Introductory comment by JW director Robert Spencer:

"She says she’s just being singled out because she is a Muslim. And I’m sure that’s true. I’m sure there are plenty of 911 operators illegally searching the terror watch list, and they’re getting off scot-free. It’s Islamophobia, I tell you, and I’m not going to take it anymore!"

What she was really thinking was probably, "This time it's those damn Americans oppressing us, instead of Serbs!"

Yup, we opened ourselves up to this!

Now we just have to ask why, if Albanians are not defined by their religion — and they’re not– an Albanian would play the Muslim victim card.

Nice point.

Can anyone explain why 911 phone operators have access to a terror watch list and DMV database? What on earth are these bozos thinking?

Zenelaj is Albanian, but not Muslim surname (like Haradinaj). She is likely not born to Muslim family (or born to the family of converts), but she probably is Islamofascist agent. It would be wiser that she played KLA card claiming to be CIA's asset, just like Haradinaj.

"Richard Vega, director of the city's Office of Public Integrity, said Zenelaj was "running personal information on herself, on her family and on friends. I think it went beyond curiosity. ... We think she was accessing this information to pass it on to others."

At least one of the 227 names that Zenelaj searched for was on the terrorist watch list, according to police. She was fired in December, arrested Tuesday and pleaded not guilty Wednesday to misdemeanor official misconduct and 232 felony counts of computer trespass — one for each allegedly illegal search."

Even Mandela is /was on the "Watch List" and I remember stories about kids being there for having similar names. Unless the list she accessed is a different list. But then, why would a lousy 9/11 operator have access to secret lists?

“But then, why would a lousy 9/11 operator have access to secret lists?”

Possibly for hasty information gathering/transmition in an emergent situation. Imagine a coordinated federal/state/county/municipality operation.

Not to say that I agree with such lousy safeguards on personal info, just speculating as to why First Responder types might want it that way and put it to positive use.
