The imans had three objectives:
1) Further inflame Muslims against the USA by portraying America as a country that harasses and bullies them;
2) Test our aviation security arrangements;
3) Use the shopworn "profiling" dodge to intimidate law enforcement and airline personnel from taking reasonable and prudent measures to protect the flying public.
With the help of the MSM,the Imans achieved objective #1. Under a Democratic administration, security and scrutiny will almost certainly be downgraded, achieving objective #3. Pelosi has already said that the imans' removal from the plane may be a case of "profiling." God help us if these people ever again hold the Congress and the Executive branch.

..."Pelosi has already said that the imans' removal from the plane may be a case of "profiling.""...

The real problem is we don't profile enough. For example,declaring CAIR, and other Trojan Horse muslim terror-front organizations, to be persona non grata and expelling them from CONUS (I suggest the same for the ACLU, another enemy-of-the-state organization). We should no longer admit muslims into the US, and may have to go as far as round up and deport all who are here on "student" visas. I applaud the US Airways Captain, who put his career on the line doing the right thing.

It's way past time for muslims - citizen or not - who live in the US to declare fealty to the USA or get out.

3) Use the shopworn "profiling" dodge to intimidate law enforcement

For political expediency: the first move of officials in the events of Islamic people involved in similar circumstances is to accuse them of being terrorists or terrorist sympathizers - in a ruthless and loud way. (Gramsci style discrediting)
