UPDATE 8:31AM May 4: Malaysia’s Inspector-General of Police says the arrests of these eleven jihadis were not related to the disappearance of the plane. The Malaysian government has behaved so oddly in this whole affair, so closemouthed and contradictory, that it is impossible to know what is true at this point. ———- Maybe these arrests […]
Robert Spencer at TownHall.com: Can Malaysia’s Airliner Disaster Happen Here?
At Town Hall I discuss a hypothetical: What if the Malaysian airliner’s disappearance really were a jihad operation? Are there any safeguards in place that would keep such an action from happening here? Could anything prevent an American plane suffering the same mysterious fate as Malaysian Airlines flight MH370?

Police investigating Uighur Muslim with flight training who was on board missing Malaysian airliner
Was this a jihad attack? There is no way to tell as yet, but Malaysian police and Interpol are “taking a close look at a 35-year-old passenger of Uighur descent” — that is, a member of the Muslim group in western China that has been waging jihad with increasing ferocity against the Chinese recently — […]
UK: Muslim woman waved through security at Heathrow Airport without being asked to show her face
Apparently these passport control officers thought that asking this Muslim woman to show her face would have been “Islamophobic.” The obvious problem, of course, is that the person inside the niqab could have been anyone. We have recently seen men use niqabs and burqas to conceal their identity and commit crimes and to escape from […]
DHS alerts airlines to possible shoe-bomb jihad threat
DHS didn’t say “jihad,” of course. As far as the DHS is concerned, there is no jihad to be concerned about; “right-wing extremists” are much more worrisome. Yet it was not a “right-wing extremist,” but an Islamic jihadist, who several years ago tried to commit mass murder on an airplane with explosives hidden in his […]

Rest easy, Britons! Heathrow Airport’s crack security team is keeping Britain safe from terrorism! Pamela Geller and I are banned from the country for telling the truth about jihad terror and supporting Israel, and Woody has been relieved of his gun!

Cross-dressing man breaches 300-million-dollar Newark airport security system, caught on runways
Next time it might not be a guy in “women’s red pants and a smart brown sweater.” This just underscores the abject failure of the hugely costly post-9/11 airport security apparatus. “Cross-dressing man caught on Newark runways,” by Philip Messing for the New York Post, December 25: The Port Authority”s pricy perimeter-protection system failed again […]
US court tosses out suit against TSA and FBI agents by student detained for Arabic flashcards “bomb” and “terrorist”
The unfortunate Nicholas George No one should be shedding any real tears for Nicholas George, especially Nicholas George. What happened to him is an unfortunate consequence of the fact that Arabic-speaking Muslims the world over have carried out terror attacks motivated by the texts and teachings of Islam, and so people who are entrusted with […]
TSA wastes $900 million on useless screening program
The uselessness of this program was a foregone conclusion, since the TSA is bound by politically correct dogma not to look at the real source of the problem, and must pretend that it is coming from anywhere, everywhere else. “GAO probe says TSA profiling ‘no better than chance,’” by Will Lester for the Associated Press, […]
Five Muslims found on flight to Toronto with fake tickets
They just wanted to attend Michael Coren’s show live, you greasy Islamophobe. “Afghan, Iranians found on Canada flight with fake tickets,” from AFP, November 3 (thanks to Blazing Cat Fur): Caracas (AFP) – A Toronto-bound flight was stopped shortly before departure from Caracas when four Iranians and an Afghan were found aboard with fake tickets […]
