I’ll bet you thought body scanners were un-Islamic. After all, didn’t the Fiqh Council of North America just say so? And yet here they are being installed in, of all places, the Islamic Republic of Iran — here is the Fars News Agency story (thanks to Block Ness). Should the Islamic Republic of Iran be […]
Muslim who was pulled off plane for (allegedly) shouting about killing Jews: I never said that, and my accusers are paranoid
If only there were a Family Circus-style drawing from little Billy, because here’s what really happened: “He insists it was a misunderstanding over a conversation while he was speaking Spanish and English with a fellow passenger who was Italian.” Never mind that
“If TSA staff, airport cops and FBI agents – the [defendants] in this lawsuit – are afraid to do their jobs, then terrorists will win”
In “A sure-fire legal recipe for airport insecurity” in the San Francisco Chronicle, February 13, Debra J. Saunders offers some common sense on the Nicholas George case: Last August, Nicholas George, 22, was getting ready to fly from Pennsylvania to Pomona College in Claremont (Los Angeles County) when TSA agents found Arabic-English flash cards in […]
Jihadist “chatter” online shows “marked increase” in discussions about evading airport security
This report comes just as the Transportation Security Administration has decided to give 10,000 of its workers access to secret intelligence. Some impeccable timing there at the TSA. “Terror Talk Growing Louder on the Web,” from CBS News, February 12: (CBS) CBS News has learned that U.S. Intelligence officials are seeing a marked increase in […]
10,000 TSA workers to get access to secret intelligence
And how is the screening of the TSA staffers who will see this material being conducted? It is almost certain that no one would dare question any Muslim TSA staffers about their allegiance to the jihad and Islamic supremacism. It is much more likely that this will make us less safe, not safer. “10,000 TSA […]
Weep not for 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 in places like Egypt, Jordan, and the Sudan have carried out terror attacks in the name of Islam, and so people who are entrusted with the safety […]
Islamic scholars (and Hamas-linked CAIR) say airport body scanners violate teachings of Islam
The Fiqh Council of North America (FCNA) is affiliated with ISNA, which is a Muslim Brotherhood group. The Brotherhood is dedicated in its own words to “eliminating and destroying Western civilization from within.” The FCNA issued a flimsy, loophole-ridden condemnation of terrorism several years ago. And CAIR, of course, is an unindicted co-conspirator in a […]
Dry run at Detroit airport? “Arabic man” ignores instructions from security guards, part of airport shut down
They thought maybe he didn’t understand English, but he did. So what was he doing? “Security scare closes airport concourse,” from UPI, February 8: DETROIT, Feb. 8 (UPI) — Part of a Detroit airport terminal was shut down Monday after an Arabic man ignored instructions from security guards, police said…. The man allegedly refused to […]
Jihadists plan attack with bombs inside their bodies, to foil new airport scanners
As I wrote here in December: “One thing we have seen over the years since 9/11 is that airport security is always one step behind the jihadists: after jihadist Richard Reid attempted to set off a bomb hidden in his shoes, we all have to take off our shoes and send them through security scanners. […]
Yemeni-trained, female suicide bombers may be attempting to enter the U.S.
Equal-opportunity jihad, and more evidence of the magnitude of the ongoing threat from Yemen. “Alert: Female Suicide Bombers May Be Heading Here from Yemen,” by Richard Esposito, Rhonda Schwartz, and Brian Ross for ABC News, January 22: American law enforcement officials have been told to be on the lookout for female suicide bombers who may […]
