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.

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.

This type of thinking is putting us in peril.
Pakistan is not a real ally. At best they are, on occasion, an ally of convenience when the head of the country fears the same terrorist who want to kill us also want to kill him.

Turkey is periodically an ally when they think it will help them get aid but, as we have seen by their refusal to allow troops through their country during the invasion of Iraq, their real allegiance is to their cult/religion.

Indonesia is not, and never will be,
an ally.

India can be an ally as 90% of it's citizens are non-muslims. Muslims are the enemy of India as much as they are the enemy of the U.S.

I consider any true muslim in this country i.e. those that believe in the koran, as enemies. I am an infidel to them and never can be an equal or fellow citizen. They do not believe in our form of government nor our system of justice.

I do not believe in shutting our Country to all foreigners, but I do believe we can, and should, be more selective in who we allow to enter and remain in the United States.

Then I guess it would be completely out of the question to go into urban areas and start searches and seizures in known cell areas?! Let's me realistic here. With these arrests today, eleven students missing last week, this could be a massive plan all over the country/world coming together on one day. We can only wonder how many such missing student incidents have gone unreported, because some university either didn't realize it, or didn't want to be considered a profiler. We can only wonder if there are other potential bombers not in custody today.

It really has to be impressed that every citizen has to know their own neighbors and report anything suspicious. If someone's feelings get hurt over a mistake--then oh well. They have to understand the magnitude of this and get over it. Honest and good muslims in this country could have the most impact. They know their customs better than anyone. That's not profiling, that's reality.
