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.”

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.

Anyone for Terrorist Profiling?
