Thus no Muslim can be truly trusted anymore.

They are a higher risk than the "little old lady from Duluth," but the risk can be handled by the dirty word, "profiling." It' very easy to pull up the higher risk Salafi Muslims by their Origin.

We know, for instance, that all Saudis are Salafi. Their version of Islam, Wahhabism, is strictly Salafi. The Pakistanis from certain areas are also almost all Salafi, and most from there are radical. Muslims from Northeast India are Salafi. There are various other easily identifiable geographic pockets. Almost all Indonesians are not Salafi. Same with most of the rest, geographically.

If you are setting out to find the potentially "bad" Muslims in this country, doing this kind of profiling would be a good way to start, and save a lot of time. From there, you would then look to see if they show any signs of radicalism or Jihad-ism. Members of Muslim student organizations and the Muslim Brotherhood are automatically on the suspect list until proven otherwise.

This is simply good police work applied to Terrorist Intelligence work. And I would bet that none of the people that are doing this work are using these methods. Why? Not "PC." Sad.

In the meantime, JDN, you are getting dangerously close to General Sherman's, "The only good Indian's...." definition. Watch it! :>)
