In Britain, I think it is obvious. They give amnesty to clerics who preach hate from their mosques and they don't do enough statistical profiling to monitor potential threats. They will learn. If 95% of terrorists are of Middle Eastern decent, then any statistician would tell you that you need to monitor that society living in your midst a little closer. You call it racial profiling. I call it common sense.

I'm surprised if Britain doesn't have an Arabic speaking undercover agent in any mosque of 20 people or more monitoring what is being taught. Frankly, I think the West should mandate that the Saudis and the Pakistani madrassas do the same thing, and where anti-western propaganda is being disbursed, give one or two warnings, and then throw the leader of that mosque into the BBQ.

If there is no fertile ground, hate can not take root. Why did those hateful clerics find fertile ground? And are they any different than the Jerry Falwells and Pat Robertsons of this country?

No, its not called racial profiling, its called racism. You really need to do some soul searching...........your biases are clouding your thinking.
