I agree. Laurie Mylroi and Jayna Davis have convinced me. But there seems to be a greater interest in the Western world in covering up connections than uncovering them. Not a good way to wage war.

If McVeigh converted, yes, it was covered up then.

But, OBL already announced they are to be deployed. That is different.

I'm not dismissing PC as a factor. I am just saying, I don't agree with profiling at this point if there is a chance screeners would let their guard down only because a go signal was given for the non stereotypical, uh, socialists? Converts? Messes?

I'm still not convinced the man we called McVeigh is dead.

At least they'll be able to go to their graves knowing they didn't hurt the feelings of any muslims!

Not all Muslims are terrorist, but pretty much all terrorists have been Muslims, so do the profiling.

After the next attack,
Thousands will die,
terrorists were profilable, but not profiled,
public and media outrage,
BNP takes huge election gains,
Labor is permanently crippled by losing a plurality of working class Anglo-Scot Brits forever.
permanent Balkanization of housing estates.

Labor party officials might as well bury their heads in the sand as long as possible.
