FLYING BLIND By malkin My friend Michael Smerconish, Philly talk show host and columnist, has a soon-to-be New York Times bestseller coming out this week on the p.c. perils of airport security. His important book is called Flying Blind and government officials are already attacking Smerconish for advocating common-sense profiling. Department of Transportation spokesman Brian Turmail told the Boston Herald in response to Smerconish's critique: Anyone who would argue that we'd be better off by discriminating against anyone based on race has got a woefully warped sense of American values. This overly simplistic and naive view of threat profiling is revealing. Even more disturbing, as we prepare to mark the third anniversary of Sept. 11, is Turmail's contempt for Americans such as Michael Smerconish who are raising serious questions about the failures of government to protect us from the ongoing threat of Islamofascists in our midst. More on Smerconish's work is here. His book tour info is here. michellemalkin.com

Nice of 'em, huh! Iraq's most senior Sunni religious body said yesterday it would issue a fatwa outlawing the abduction and execution of any foreigner in the country.
