<<<This is what creates the market for bombers>>>

I agree with that assessment but I disagree when you assert:

<<<I also don't see how terrorists are ever going to recruit into my American business traveler profile. It suggests that we need to be limiting how many of the half million people on our list are NOT profiled. >>>

They only have to get a handful of terrorists to slip through any kludgy profile system. In fact a profile system makes it easier for terrorists.

What we need is a comprehensive system to avoid any kind of attack - regardless of motive.

Any traveler or material that has to be transported should pass through screening.

I don't see where that would be an insurmountable and intrusive technical barrier.

This kludgy stuff has to go.
