CAIR: Don't racial profile after airline incidents December 27, 2009 23:04 EST
SNIPPET: "WASHINGTON (AP) -- A Muslim advocacy group is urging passengers, crews and security personnel to avoid ethnic and religious "profiling" in the wake of the attempted bombing of a Northwest Airlines flight in Detroit on Christmas Day.
In a statement, Ibrahim Hooper of the Washington, D.C.-based Council on American-Islamic Relations says, "While everyone supports robust airline security measures, racial and religious profiling are in fact counterproductive and can lead to a climate of insecurity and fear.""

Say it LOUD M-U-S-L-I-M-S.
we all know it.
You’re talking about my wife. Stop it!!!
Hey Ibrahim Hooper...”GO F*CK YOURSELF!!!”
:>)
They are flat out saying ‘shut up and die’. And we’ll do just that.
Is she bombing planes? Keep her home, making lutefisk.
Good for you, SoldierDad! I’d like to sit between you and the Dutch guy!!
Regarding your tagline...a big THANK YOU to your son for his service and for going to be a father! What the heck...congratulations to you for going to be a Grandpa!
Great compilation, Cindy, and thank you.
Hey, CAIR! Want to REALLY improve American-Islamic relations?
Then quit defending your murderous cult that only recognizes two classes: Muslims, and Infidels (who only are only allowed to exist through the tolerance of Muslims).
Every other faith on earth teaches acceptance and brotherhood. Islam only teaches hate and paranoia.
“Religion of peace” my ass.
I am sure the muzzies will get their way on this one as well!!! Our gubmint is run by asylum inmates, from 0bozo on down.
Yeah it is better that a lot of innocemnt people die. I am sick of this PC crap and these Saudi backed muslim groups and Kenyan muslim teleprompter endangering us. The people in this country who voted for this idiot are fools. Ball games and reality TV. Morons.
ditto
Well, when looking at Peru, one may one to profile for Shining Path and oh yes, drug lords apparently are interested in Peru to:

CAIR must be destroyed.
You’re welcome 2nd amendment mama.
I was not aware that muslim is a race or an ethnicity. If a religion is big on blowing up airliners, I think it is a good idea to profile the adherents.
There must be some kind of RICO charges that can be brought against CAIR.
If anybody complains about profiling... they can blame the Muslim Terrorists, not us.
:) Yeah.
BINGO!!!!!!!!!!!
2006 Article, still relevant: Why we must profile
After the uncovering of the recent jihadist airplane plot in Britain, British officials have begun moving toward this. However, politically this is an explosive issue: a British source said that the British Department for Transport is ultra-sensitive about this and wont say anything publicly because of political concerns about being accused of racial stereotyping. And predictably, once a report was printed about this in the Times of London, Metropolitan Police Chief Superintendent Ali Desai declared: What you are suggesting is that we should have a new offence in this country called traveling whilst Asian. What we dont want to do is actually alienate the very communities who are going to help us catch terrorists. And of course, we dont want to do that. But those communities themselves have to take responsibility for the fact that jihadists have lived and recruited and plotted in their midst, generally with no fear that their coreligionists would turn them in.
While Muslim tipsters helped expose the latest airplane hijacking plot, and that is highly commendable, all too often the wrath of the Muslim communities in America and Britain has been focused on anti-terror efforts and the foreign policy of their governments when what is needed instead is an understanding of and tolerance for the need for profiling. But Muhammad Abdul Bari of the Muslim Council of Britain doesnt think profiling is worth doing anyway: If the profiling is done on the basis of race and religion, it will be wrong, it is not going to work.
Why not? All the September 11 hijackers were Muslims. So were the July 7 London bombers. And the Madrid train bombers of March 2004. And on and on. All the plotters in the recent international airplane hijacking attempt are Muslims. All were working on the basis of Islamic theology. Why must officials continue not to notice this? To ignore this is to give up voluntarily the one thing that may make it possible to spot the perpetrators of a terror attack before it happens, and head it off. In other words, it is suicidal.
