Two totally different situations. The internment of Americans of Japanese descent was wrong because it was was way too broad. Most of those people probably were hard working, law abiding citizens. Profiling is one thing, imprisoning a whole class of people based only on where they came from is horrible. But how many Japanese pulled off terrorist attacks in the US during WWII?

I don't see anyone calling for the internment of Arab Muslims in our country. You would be a fool, however, to ignore the basic fact that our enemies tend to have a common profile. Still, they don't always fit, like Ryan Anderson.

I don't often listen to C2C...but there is a guy on tonight who says he had a dream of the DC 10 crash in Chicago in 1979.
He says he was talking to the FAA before it happened and there is an Associated press article on his web site confirming it.
The lastest claim is that he has a vision of the comming destruction of the USA probably this year. Or something like that...He has not gotten to that yet. Links are on the C2C website. If anyone is interested to hear what he has to say.
I am not a big believer in this kind of thing although I admit the possiblity...I am skeptical.

David Booth believes he foresaw the nation's worst air disaster in his dreams 10 nights before an American Airlines jet crashed near Chicago last Friday, killing 274 people. Federal Aviation Administration officials agree that the dreams, as Booth reported them to the FAA and to a psychiatrist at the University of Cincinnati, bear a remarkable resemblance to the actual crash. "It was uncanny. There were differences, but there were very many similarities," said Jack Barker, FAA regional public affairs officer. "The greatest similarity was calling the airline (by name) and the airplane ... and that it came in inverted." Booth, 23, an office manager for a car rental agency here, said it did not surprise him to learn last Friday that a DC-10 had crashed on takeoff at O'Hare International Airport. "There was never any doubt to me that something was going to happen," Booth said. "It wasn't like a dream. It was like I was standing there watching the whole thing -- like watching television. "When FAA officials heard of the crash, they recalled Booth's dreams, too.

Three days earlier, Booth had called the FAA office at the Greater Cincinnati Airport to tell them his story, and officials there referred him to regional headquarters in Atlanta. Everyone had listened patiently to his account of the dream, Booth said. He was grateful that no one laughed or said he was crazy. "He was sincere, that was my impression," said Ray Pinkerton, FAA assistant manager here. "There was a slight tremble in his voice. Of course I was concerned. But what can you say when somebody calls you like that? "In Booth's dreams, he sensed an airplane was in trouble because its engines did not sound right.

Then, as he looked across an open field, he saw an American Airlines plane with three engines bank to the right, turn over and crash to the ground in a ball of orange and red flames that then became obscured by gray smoke. The morning of the crash he was particularly fitful since "everything upset me," Booth said. The dreams have stopped, but the feeling of frustration continues, he said. "How can you make any sense out of something like that?" he asked. "There's no explanation for it. No meaning. No conclusion. It just doesn't make any sense."
