told Reuters in Paris: "We have not detected passengers with the profile of people belonging to a radical Islamic group. ... All the checks so far have come to nothing." Thats because not all terrorists in the world look like arab muslims or even have arab sounding names. Some might even have frenchy sounding last names and might even look frenchy-like. If an Air France plan steers off its assigned flight plan while over US territory, it should be shot down immediately.
If the French complain just tell them, "We have this Freedom. You cannot stop us".

Opps. 'Air France plan' should read 'Air France plane'.

How about a couple of F-16 fighters "escorting" Air France flights as they approach US airspace. Kinda like the jets that follow the shuttle down, but instead, ready to put a missle up it's ass if it does anything obviously hostile.
