Wouldn't it be smarter to have a "no Muslim passengers" policy?

I have said, over and over again since 9/11/01, that all citizens and subjects of Islamic countries who cannot PROVE that they are doing work here of vital national security interest should be interned and then deported.

It was true then, it's true now, and it will be true tomorrow.

What constitutes an Islamic country? Would it include UK muslims like those who just got caught in this plot or those responsible for bombing the subway? I assume that diplomats and their families, those holding green cards, and those married to amcits would be exempt. Would your ban include businessmen coming here to do conduct business, tourists, etc.?

The policy you are advocating would be counterproductive and very difficult to administer. It would alienate many of our allies like Pakistan, Turkey, Indonesia, etc. India is not a "Muslim country" yet it has the second largest Muslim population. It would also radicalize the 4 to 6 Muslims in the US.

Yer darned tootin'. This would be the time to do it, too. Let the lines be drawn between those that want to do the necessary things to assure security and the ACLU and the moonbat left. Such a call would be universally decried by the lefty RATS, and their ilk, then the electorate could choose how they want things to go and which party they want in charge.

Maybe we'll see an MSM poll, late today, showing just such sentiment among the populace -- yeah, right!
