Islamic DVD delays Jamaican flight

John McFarlane, security chief at the Norman Manley International Airport in Kingston, declined to specify the content of the disc but said he was told it 'was Islamic" and it made the flight crew 'uncomfortable.'

Pentagon - be bold, brave, blunt

In the wake of the Detroit plot, debate has renewed among civilian authorities about how to screen for terrorists without appearing to discriminate against Muslims.

The U.S. military, though, has been grappling with this for a while. It would seem a delicate matter at first blush: How does the Pentagon determine if there are other murderous traitors in its ranks without appearing anti-Muslim? The answer is twofold.

First, it's not as delicate as it might appear. You review all military branches for any signs of extremism or anti-American leanings of any kind, without regard to race, creed or any other characteristic of the subject. Period.

While the Pentagon cannot worry about being delicate at this point, it can be professional. The probe need not be a witch hunt for Muslims. Again, it need only seek out evidence of any kind of extremism or anti-Americanism in the ranks.

Still, this is no time to be delicate. You don't necessarily look for Islamic radicalism. But you don't look away from it, either.
