Constitutional freedoms with profiling of suspects must be allowed

By Oscar Y. Harward

Homeland Security Agency (HSA) has issued newer rules for Transportation Security Administration (TSA) examinations of full-body scanning machines and pat-down that many say are too invasive. TSA’s full-body scanning machines will not show plastic bomb elements and most object to full pat-downs as too sexually abusive. Who wants anyone to fondle their private bodies? To discontinue all testing would trigger a total shut-down in airport travel that would further injure our US economy.

ACLU lawsuits, along with the SCOTUS have determined “profiling” is a form of discrimination. Now, “profiling” has turned the issue into a “national security” concern with an internal battle between our TSA security agents and flying passengers. Flying has become a “profiling” issue dealing primarily with Islamic Muslims’ terrorism. Men and women of Islamic Muslim communities around the world have become the primary suspects. Why are all other persons treated as the suspicious ones? Law enforcement professionals must be allowed to do their jobs, even by the use of “profiling”.

After 9/11, President G.W. Bush said Islam is a “Religion of Peace”. How wrong he was then! It is apparent President Bush realizes his faulty statement. America, and other nations around the world are constantly facing attacks from radical Islamic Muslims.

Frequently, President Obama says the “United States is not at war with the Islamic Muslim community, and never will be”. The facts may dispute Obama’s own words. President Obama should know better.

Senator Joseph Lieberman (I-CT) said, “The U.S. is at war with violent Islamist extremism, and the Obama administration does moderate Muslims no favor by refusing to recognize this.”

When you review the facts http://www.thereligionofpeace.com/Pages/AmericanAttacks.htm; as provided by “The Religion of Peace”, you will see that 3,098 Americans have died in 67 Islamic Muslims attacks since April, 1972. Furthermore, you may find at least 30 foiled attempts against the US since 9/11/01 http://creepingsharia.wordpress.com/2010/05/23/at-least-30-islamic-terror-plots-against-u-s-foiled-since-911-eleven-in-nyc-video/.

Islamic Muslims have been at war with America, Israel, and many other nations and/or persons who disagree with Islamic Muslin teachings.
Islamic Muslims’ ideals v. Judeo-Christian value wars did not start yesterday. There are writings of the 7th. century of Islamic Muslin wars against any other Judeo-Christians and/or countries of the world.

Winston Churchill (1874 -1965) http://www.islam-watch.org/AdrianMorgan/Winston-Churchill-Islamism.htm; has been known as one of the world’s most wise warrior statesman for his success against Germany’s Adolf Hitler and Fascism. Churchill joined the Fourth Hussars, a Calvary Regiment in the British Army, in 1895. After serving as a war correspondent while serving in now Pakistan bordering Afghanistan, he wrote a book, “The Story of the Malakand Field Force”.

Churchill’s named "Mad Mullah". Speaking of the Pathan and Beluchi tribesmen of the border regions, he noted with some sarcasm that “the Mullah will raise his voice and remind them of other days when the sons of the prophet drove the infidel from the plains of India, and ruled at Delhi, as wide an Empire as the Kafir holds to-day: when the true religion strode proudly through the earth and scorned to lie hidden and neglected among the hills: when mighty princes ruled in Bagdad, and all men knew that there was one God, and Mahomet was His prophet.”

Churchill wrote, “Civilization is confronted with militant Mahommedanism. The forces of progress clash with those of reaction. The religion of blood and war is face to face with that of peace. Luckily the religion of peace is usually the better armed”. Churchill continues, “Fanaticism is not a cause of war. It is the means which helps savage peoples to fight. It is the spirit which enables them to combine - the great common object before which all personal or tribal disputes become insignificant. What the horn is to the rhinoceros, what the sting is to the wasp, the Mohammedan faith was to the Arabs of the Soudan - a faculty of offence or defense”.

Dr. Michael Kessler, Assistant Director of the Berkley Center for Religion, Peace, and World Affairs and Visiting Assistant Professor of Government at Georgetown University says in his article, “Islam is not a religion. It is a violent political ideology of which religion is only one component and is based on its own set of laws that has no tolerance for non Muslims”.

Many Americans are outraged as many within the Islamic Muslim communities appear to be trying to replace our Holy Bible and Judeo-Christian values with the Quran and their Islamic Muslim militant beliefs. Terrorism within the radical Islamic Muslim communities around the world practice Sharia Law, an ideology which is strongly contrary to our Constitutional freedoms and Judeo-Christian values.

Constitutional freedoms with profiling of suspects must be allowed. The ACLU should repeal their earlier resolve on this issue. Crime prevention and early detection in law enforcement is one of their primary teachings in our society. “Profiling” at airports must be allowed in an effort for professional law enforcement to do what they do best, saving lives.
