Is there anyone reading this that is still opposed to profiling insofar as security, especially at airports, is concerned? (Was anybody, ever, opposed to doing that?) If there are holdouts, I’d like to direct your attention to the following list of ‘terrorist’ and/or ‘illegal’ activities perpetrated in the last half century by Middle-Eastern men between the ages of 17 and 40, found after my signature…
Perhaps we should just continue to harass Blacks and Caucasians on the off chance that some one of us has gone over to the side of madness? Maybe more grandmothers should be strip-searched in the event that the AARP has gone over to Islamofascism? Maybe more baby carriages should be taken apart at the gate to insure that toddlers haven’t been converted to the ‘religion of peace’ that is blowing up the world?
I know that I had issued a statement of caution immediately after the events of 9/11, stating the Islam was a peaceful religion and not all Muslims are associated with these murderous terrorists and that remains largely true; however, insofar as who is doing the evil deeds, we need to look more closely to those who fit the description. Not all of them are guilty but all of the guilty fit that description.
The innocent people who fit the description are just going to have to do their part and hold their tongues and tempers while we scrutinize them more carefully than other people. They can also do their part by being more cooperative with law enforcement in reporting their fellow Muslims that are involved. The sooner we put an end to Islamofascism, the sooner we can all get back to a normal life; but no sooner, lest we surer dire consequences.
What sense does it make to scrutinize grandmothers, babies, white and black businessmen, white and black women, when all the terrorism is being done by Middle-Easterners between the ages of 17 and 40? Those women of Middle-East extraction are going to have to be included in the profile as well, simply because women in the Middle-East have been increasingly involved with terrorism as well. What’s good for the goose, as the saying goes, is good for the gander, as well.
Take a look below and see if you can find fault with my reasoning…

There is a virtuous fear which is the effect of faith, and a vicious fear which is the product of doubt and distrust. The former leads to hope as relying on God, in whom we believe;
the latter inclines to despair, as not relying on God, in whom we do not believe.
Persons of the one character fear to lose God; those of the other character fear to find Him.

Subject: E-mail Subject Line: Anyone for Terrorist Profiling?
To ensure we Americans never offend anyone -- particularly fanatics intent on killing us -- law enforcement and security screeners are not allowed to “profile” people in public places or security checkpoints. However, they will continue to perform random searches of 80-year-old women, little kids, airline pilots with proper identification, Secret Service agents who are members of the President’s security detail, 85-year-old congressmen with metal hips and even Medal of Honor recipients. But targeting Middle Eastern male Islamists between the ages 17 and 40 constitutes “ethnic profiling.”

In 2005, there were hundreds of casualties, men, women and children, killed by bombs in Jerusalem, Riyadh and Amman. These innocent civilians were murdered by: (a) Construction workers (b) Farmers (c) Christian missionaries (d) Middle Eastern Islamist males between the ages of 17 and 40.
In 2005, the city of Paris, and other European cities experienced an extended period of riots and destruction. The unrest was led by: (a) “Youth” (b) Soccer fans (c) Catholic nuns (d) Middle Eastern Islamist males between the ages of 17 and 40.
Since the beginning of Operation Iraqi Freedom, more than 2,500 Americans have been murdered by terrorists. 35,000 Iraqi men, women and children have also been murdered by terrorists.

In every case, the terrorists cell members were: (a) Southern Baptists Conventioneers (b) Lutheran Youth Groups (c) Presbyterian Elders (d) Middle Eastern Islamist males between the ages of 17 and 40.
President George Bush said this week, “America is at war with Islamic fascists who will use any means to destroy those of us who love freedom, to hurt our nation.” The Council on American-Islamic Relations issued an immediate objection to the President’s reference to “Islamic fascists”. Nihad Awad, executive director of CAIR protested, “We have to isolate these individuals because there is nothing in the Koran or the Islamic faith that encourages people to be cruel or to be vicious or to be criminal. Muslims world wide know that for sure.” In light of this objection, we are left to ponder why every Islamic leader in the U.S., and the world, does not publicly condemn every terror action being undertaken in the name of the god of Islam.
Their silence is deafening...
Between 1970 and present, there were more than 60 other notable examples of terrorism perpetrated by Middle Eastern male Islamists between the ages 17 and 40, but we think you get the point. Singling out “Middle Eastern male Islamists between the ages 17 and 40” is not “ethnic profiling,” it’s “terrorist profiling” -- acting on prolific evidence.

Meet Dr. Walter E. Williams
My friends, if you have a few moments to reflect of what life it and what it should be, take the time to read an interview of a fine gentleman by the name of Walter E. Williams, at:
http://www.objectivistcenter.org/ct-1750-.aspx
He is a modern renaissance man, in spite of being black (that is not surprising to me and I mention it for reference only). He has, if you will forgive the expression, ‘his shit together’ and attributes that to teachers who didn’t care about ‘self-esteem’ the way it is viewed today. They looked at self-esteem as something a person earned, not something that everybody should be given. (That is how it should be, in this man’s opinion.)
He is, among many other things, the John M. Olin Distinguished Professor of Economics at George Mason University. I came to know him from his stints as a guest host on Rush Limbaugh’s radio program. Don’t let that put you off, if you are not a fan of Rush’s, Dr. Williams’ is a unique personality that has earned, not only his self-esteem but the respect of his peers in academia and the economic world.
I am sure that I cannot do him the justice that he merits, so judge for yourself. The interview is at: http://www.objectivistcenter.org/ct-1750-.aspx and his personal webpage is at: http://www.gmu.edu/departments/economics/wew/ Don’t miss his biography there, at: http://www.gmu.edu/departments/economics/wew/vita.html
I don’t think you will be disappointed in knowing him.

Terrorist are 'immigrating'
As if the millions of illegal immigrants weren’t bad enough of a problem to our economy and autonomy, this (below) displays that immigration is a bigger problem than all of that; it is a National Security problem that isn’t being view properly at all, by anyone in authority to do anything about it. If you think that the government could have prevented 9/11 if they could only have ‘connected the dots’ you should see that this is exactly the same problem and with a similarly catastrophic conclusion if these dots, which are huge and well defined, are not connected and dealt with.
If, like me and other clear thinking people, you see the 9/11 problem as something that was inevitable due to the prohibitions on connecting the dots that were imposed by the Clinton Justice department, particularly Jamie S. Gorelick, you will see that this is a dangerous situation of politicizing a politically-correct (politically insane) issue that will ultimately lead to a tremendous loss of life and possibly a loss of our way of life.
The dots are connected, in other words, but the politicians are refusing to call it for what it is – invasion!
Our cities are already under siege from the central American gang called MS-13, that import drugs, prostitution (white slavery - a misnomer, as the women enslaved are from all races), and violence that has been unseen since the days of prohibition. (Drugs are today’s prohibition, with the same problems and with the same call for the same solution, repeal!). Now there are signs: mid-east money, clothing, and newspapers, found at border crossings, that clearly indicate that terrorists are coming through our porous borders as well!
What the hell is it going to take for us all to come together and stop politicizing every god-damned thing the President does to try and secure the country? Sometimes I think it will take a mushroom cloud, reaching into the stratosphere, to get us all on the same page; sometimes I think that even that will be used by envious politicians and demagogues to further tear us apart and lead us to our ultimate annihilation. Some of the pundits on the left are so deranged that I believe they would do that, just to satisfy their twisted egos.
People on the left (and some on the right) need to stop and regroup. They need to take a fresh look at what is happening in the world around them and refrain from the ‘politics of destruction’ that has a grip on them. Politics aside, this is a bigger problem than ‘who won what election’ and ‘who lied about whatever’; we have a real enemy that is winning because of our inability to unite and deal with them. Once the Islamofascists are defeated we can get back to bickering about the trivialities of life.
Gay marriage, killing babies (for whatever reason), minimum wage, evolution, all of these ‘oh so important issues’ are nothing compared to whether we continue to exist at all! Can’t you see that? Once we end the threat of annihilation, we can get back to these trivialities, let’s just get together for now and make a coordinated effort to win the global war on terror. After that, hell, after that you can impeach, hang, draw and quarter, whatever, to anybody you want; let’s just make a future where those, and other things, are even possible.
If we continue to bicker while the enemy plans, we won’t have anything to fight over in ten to twenty years. We will all be under Sharia Law and that will be the end of the dream of our founding fathers anyway. That will be the end of a thousand years of human advances; does it really matter if Bush really won FL once that happens? Get real, get a life, fight for our lives; that’s what’s at stake! John Kerry, Michael Moore, Nancy Pelosi, et al, will be able to escape to Bora-Bora when the terrorists win; where will you go?
I want to stay here – and fight the bastards, all of them!

Texas sheriffs: Terrorists crossing U.S.-Mexico border
The Texas Sheriffs’ Border Coalition believes that terrorists are linking up with drug cartels and the Mexican military, learning Spanish and Mexican culture, and then sneaking into the United States. Items found along the banks of the Rio Grande include Iranian currency and military badges in Arabic.
The Sheriffs note that many border crossers are not Mexican, and though fluent in Spanish, they speak with a non-native accent. One particular Arabic patch garnered attention: It read “midnight mission” and displayed an airplane flying over a building heading towards a tower. Department of Homeland Security statistics show that 40,000 non-Mexican illegals were rounded up between October, 2003, and June, 2004.
Texas Gov. Rick Perry’s office numbers non-Mexican illegal crossers at almost 120,000 from January through July 2005. Perhaps if Congress and the President began treating this as a security issue rather than a political chess game, the problem could be solved.
