David's Comment: Let's Call a Spade "a Spade" - Time For
'Profiling'
On Christmas Day yet another demented
Muslim attempted to blow up a commercial aircraft carry 300 passengers.
Were it not for the terrorist's comical incompetence, 2009 could have ended with
the disastrous loss of the lives of 300 innocent people and the US $100 million
plus Airbus 330 that they were flying on. Almost immediately a number of
agencies began an investigation into how a young Muslim man whose name was on
several watch lists, was able to board the aircraft without the explosive devise
he had concealed in his underwear being discovered by security checks we all
have to endure. It has since been revealed that he tried to board the
flight without a valid passport, which begs the question, " how on earth was he
allowed into any airport departure lounge without a valid passport ? You
and I couldn't travel with out a valid passport, so how is that a suspicious
young Muslim terrorist can ?
Oops !!! Now I am in big
trouble. In these days of criminally stupid political correctness it
is almost illegal to use the words Muslim / Islam and terrorist in the same
sentence. In some US states I could go to prison for doing so. This
stupidness began when Political Correctness replaced free speech and President
Bush, Barack Obama, Tony Blair, Gordon Brown and other political compromisers
declared Islam to be a 'religion of peace and love'. This blind
foolishness now has President Obama identifying the al-Qaeda-trained Islamist
terrorist who tried to blow up the airliner over Detroit as an 'isolated
extremist.
Its time to call a spade "a spade" ! Almost every
trouble spot on planet Earth today has Muslims on one side of it. Almost every
act of blooded terror is carried out by adherents of the Muslim faith. You
don't have to be a rocker scientist or brain surgeon to come to the realisation
that the most efficient and cost effective way to ensure our security at our
airports and other places where crowds gather is to engage in a process that is
called Profiling. This method of preventative security has been perfected
by the Israeli security sector. That should come as no surprise as Israel
has been the No 1 target for terrorists foe over 100 years now, so as you would
expect, the Israelis have security down to a fine art. And Profiling is a
key dynamic of the Israeli success story.
What exactly is
profiling ? Terrorism statistics show facts like the average age,
gender, religion, country of origin and social situation of the people who have
carried out or who planned to engage in acts of terrorism. These facts
show clearly that the people most likely to be planning to blow up the aircraft
that you are preparing to fly in are 20 - 30 year old Muslim males who live in
Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, Sudan, Yemen, and even the UK. Without using
up too many brain cells it seems logical and efficient to treat all travellers
fitting this description as potential terrorists and check them
accordingly.
In many countries profiling is deemed racist and in
contravention of a persons human rights. But I ask you what about the
human rights of the other innocent passengers to travel without the risk of
being blown out of the sky ? Here in Israel all passengers are thoroughly
screened at the entrance to the departure hall and if anyones answers place them
in a profile that is suspect, then they are thoroughly searched ( even
strip-searched if deemed necessary ) to be 100% sure that the person poses no
danger to the other passengers or aircraft or ship.
Are certain
racial groups 'picked-on' ? - Sure they are
Are
some innocent people subjected to this kind of scrutiny ? -
Sure they are
Are the rest of the passengers safer ?
Absolutley YES ! El Al has been the safest airline to travel on
since drastic security and profiling was introduced after a number of El Al
aircraft were hi-hacked by the PLO and other Muslim Arab terror groups.
Many people fly on El Al, even at a higher price, because of the safety factor
created by the intense security and profiling.
I travel by air
extensively and yes the security does get frustrating, but I grin and bear it
and I often try to calm down other passengers who get upset by the security
measures. When I tell them that few minutes of inconvenience are
preferable to being killed in a terror attack, most people do realise I am right
and calm down. What is ludicrous is when old people or mothers with
babies, who are the furtherest away from the terrorist profile, are
treated the same as a 25 year old Pakistani Muslim male, because of the fear of
being accused of profiling. I have even heard of mothers having to drink
from every one of their babies milk bottles, to prove that it is milk inside and
not some explosive chemical.
Come on world - WAKE UP
! We are not living in the days of Tom Sawyer anymore.
The world changed dramatically after Israel's miraculous victory in the Six Day
War of 1967. That is when modern terrorism came of age and the danger has
been steadily increasing ever since. Lets save lives and minimalise
the inconvenience to innocent people by following the Israeli example, and
assist our security personel to function effectively by allowing them to
utilising passenger profiling.
Lets call a spade a
'spade' - Islam is a menace to the rest of the World and profiling
will make the World a safer place !
The Lord bless you as you bless Israel by standing in defense of
her right to exist on the land given to the Jewish people by the God of
Israel. Lets pray that Israel will turn back to their God. Do not be
silent, but share this with your fellow Christians, share it with your pastors,
and with anyone you have a chance to speak to. Lets also pray for that
breakthrough to the Muslims, and please remember to pray for all of the
soldiers in the IDF -they are defending and fighting for the Kingdom of God.
Shabbat Shalom ... David & Josie
