Make it your duty to go out of the way to reassure any Americans of Mid-East Ethnic, or religious, background, that you think it is wrong for anyone in America to treat them as though they had something to do with this attack.

We must not repeat the travesty of the Japanese Internment during WWII.

No, watch them carefully to see what they do. Protect them as you would any American citizen but watch them carefully. We must not repeat the travesty of the Japanese Internment during WWII.

This day of infamy was carried out by Islamic Terrorists from within. It differs entirely from Pearl Harbor in that respect. One would be foolish to discount the public reports that there are hundreds of these Terrorist cells operating in America. I'll give you a clue. They are not hiding out and receiving support in your local synagogues.

I see that many of us have been well trained in "sensitivity", whether they will admit it or not. (Most likely self trained and self censored.) No, the internment camps will not happen again. And that is too bad, because the silence from the Arab Ametrican community, except to claim the victim status, has been stunning. Yesterday (Saturday) a former Secret Service agent interviewed on FOX said he was apalled that a Muslim imam who had led an anti -American demonstration a year earlier at Lafayette Park was invited to speak at the Washington Cathedral service on Friday (Sorry I didn't note the names!) His concern was dismissed by the FOX daytime newsguy with the usual "free country, free speech" claptrap.

I keep hearing this but, I am not convinced it was a travesty. Unfortunate, yes. I hope the people weren't mis-treated but, I understand the percieved need to do this. I hope we don't enter an era where we are terrorized as the Israelis are. We may again see the need to separate ourselves from a large group of specific people. This is war.
