Terrorism and Racism

[shad2007]

I no longer completely hate the city of New York. While the vile Yankees, loud and stupid Yankees fans, pushy people, and constant smell of urine still receive their fair share of my loathing, elected officials in the Big Apple have gained a little respect. Okay, so not all of them, but two in particular: state Assemblyman Dov Hikind and City

You know, you have a point, shevette. We can't just implement racial profiling as a complete program for monitoring terrorism. Like in Algiers, terrorists can find holes in the system. And you're right. Fundamentalists everywhere, including Christians, blow shit up because they are morons. The only major difference is that in the Qu'uran, not in the Bible, does it say that, "So when the sacred months have passed away, then slay the idolaters wherever you find them, and take them captives and besiege them and lie in wait for them in every ambush" (The Immunity, Chapter 9.5). And only Islamic fundamentalists, not Christians, have threatened terrorist attacks on the United States. And only Islamic fundamentalist were involved in 9/11. And only Islamic fundamentalists bombed the U.S. Embassy in Kenya and the Marine barracks in Beirut. Only Islamic fundamentalists constantly "lie in wait for them in every ambush" against U.S. soldiers in Iraq, trying to deliver a peaceful state of democracy to the people of the country, oppressed for so long by Saddam Hussein's brutal regime. So maybe Andrew has a point here. Maybe New York has a point here. Maybe this kind of treatment, although it seems like overkill, is the way to deal with these problems we face today. Mad about racial profiling against minorities in America? Well I agree, it's a problem. Police, cab drivers, employers, they all need to stop what they're doing. At the same time, maybe American universities should stop their own racial profiling system known as affirmative action. Oh you're white and got a 1540 SAT score and a 4.5 GPA? Oh too bad, you're white. We're going to let in a Cuban girl who got a 1250. Why? Because she's a minority. Yeah she's less qualified. Too bad for you. And I'm not fudging those numbers. That's the reality of it. So maybe since we're being politically correct, we can be honest too. Islamic fundamentalists pose the biggest problem for American homeland security. Sorry, but that's the truth, I hope it doesn't crumble the castle of lies you have built for yourself up there with Michael Moore.
