You’ve got to be kidding? Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano is considering giving exemptions to Muslim women at airports.
Isn’t that the reason that we have these intrusive groin checks in the first place?… Because of Muslim bombers?
Via Hannity:
Gee… It’s not like we’ve ever heard about a terrorist hiding under a burka before.

Jailed cleric Maulana Abdul Aziz, one of two brothers who ran Islamabad’s radical Red Mosque, was caught fleeing the violence at his mosque dressed in a burka. This was after he told his students to sacrifice themselves. At least 100 people died, mostly students, when security forces stormed the mosque in a bid to end the siege and flush out pro-Taliban militants from the complex.

Muslim male terrorists have been known to wear women’s clothes…..that happened at least once in Britain. In Iraq, females have been known to wear bombs under those loose clothes.
Government by waiver is by definition both corrupt and stupid.

John Stanford commented:
Here Gateway Pundit is trying to say that Muslim women should be searched at airports. Typical big government fascist supporter just showing he hates Muslims. Not only does he want Muslims discriminated against, he even wants them to be searched even though it is against their religion.
While he complains about 3-year-old white Christian girls being searched, he is all for Muslims being searched. In fact, Gateway, you ought to be more tolerant and at least take responsibility for the surge in terrorist attacks caused by Christians, such as the Oklahoma City terrorist attack that happened about 15 years ago.
Look, we definitely need to protect America because, as Gateway himself has said in some posts, terrorism is a threat. So we all must sacrifice and searches are part of that. But we shouldn’t subject Muslims to these searches when it is discriminatory to them.
Kevin commented:
If she does this there had better be an outcry so loud that Odummer will have no choice but to ask for her resignation.
If she does this it will prove that aviation security is a joke. How in the hell do you give an exemption to one of the most likely groups of people to pose a security threat?? Does she truly believe that anyone will take her seriously after that?
If she does this there should be a nationwide boycott of air travel for the simple fact that TSA cares not one whit about safety and all about being politically correct.

I think all Muslims regardless of age and sex should be exempt from searches. We are not at war with Islam.
Kevin commented:
John, do they allow internet access in the special class?
We hate Muslims because we feel they should be searched just like everyone else? Really? That has got to be one of the most idiotic things I have ever read.
It’s almost scary that you don’t recognize how stupid what you just wrote is.
Nance commented:
ALL people have a level of modesty, Janet. If you can’t give common sense waivers to the physically impaired (i.e. feeding tubes, joints replacements, etc. who have even given you doctor evidence thereof) or the very young, you cannot give waivers due to religious beliefs. You say ALL have to submit to this invasion of privacy for the security of ALL. ALL does not waiver anyone. Let the discrimination suits begin!

First off, you pick out muslims and then look at them a certain way.
Tjexcite commented:
This is exactly what they want. The White House and Minoans are violent radicals revolutionary Maxis Socialists with a suits on. The more stiff the more the government can come in to save the day. Poke Poke Nudge Nudge. Violent outburst. No more flying without a full government issued travel papers that take weeks to get to and major cost all to bypass the searches. And then only on State air travel as the airlines have been taken over.
Once you realize that anything that comes out of the White house has been set up by people who still want to fundamentally change the United States to be no more. It all makes sense.
Sturgen commented:
If they allow Muslim women to pass without being checked, I’m going to go out and buy a hijab and wear it at the airport every time I fly.

Robert commented:
The answer, in my opinion, is to visit great harm upon the world of Islam.
For the next act of Islamic terrorism, I would completely destroy the mosque, home, and other place of work of any cleric who could be connected with the terrorist. For the following act, I would do the same plus the next 10 mosques, homes, and other place of work of any cleric who could be connected with the terrorist, or by criteria of association or radicalism. Then, again, the same plus 100, and then the same plus 1000, being sure to target and eliminate the clerics.
This entire policy and plan of attack would be communicated in advance in a public announcement.
Robert commented:
I am against any concession whatsoever to this travesty of protectionism.
This is so ridiculous that we are debating the whys and wherefores of whether we should have to be groped or imaged at all.
Sniffer dogs? Are you people insane?
GLM In Ohio commented:
I hope Janet gives them an exemption. Then, when the next plane full of Americans die, she, and the entire Obama administration can explain it to the American people …. on their way out the door ….
Joanne commented:
It is against my religion too to have a virtual naked photograph and to be molested and considering Christianity has been around far longer than Islam, I get first dibs on claiming I shouldn’t be searched because of my religion. Just because I don’t have to cover myself head to toe or expect to be raped, doesn’t mean I’m not modest.
John Stanford – the Oklahoma bomber wasn’t a Christian – get a brain because you are noticeably stupid.
“But we shouldn’t subject Muslims to these searches when it is discriminatory to them.” by John Stanford
Muslims are the terrorists – did you get a brain yet? The searches are to detect terrorists of which are all muslims…..no not Christians. The only reason for these extensive searches at airports is because of muslims trying to blow sheite up.
AussieDownUnder commented:
“But we shouldn’t subject Muslims to these searches when it is discriminatory to them.”
What utter and complete nonsense. EVERYONE is subject to the same rules irrespective of religious belief. This naive political correctness to appease a faith from amongst which this entire problem with airline terrorism arose is insanity.
I’m amazed how you yanks have such a hard time calling a spade a spade. The profiles for a potential terrorist at an airport is a muslim male. Why? Because, overwhelmingly, this is the background of past attempts and successful acts of terrorism in the air. Yet, you are so afraid to state the truth for fear, to a point now it seems, that you are putting the lives of your other fellow Americans at risk.
Utter stupidity on display again by the administration.
Bunni commented:
OMG is right! You can’t make this stuff up. THEY are the reasons we are having this crap forced on us! If this passes, I suggest we all take to wearing burkha’s. This whole bunch of loons

Sasja commented:
John Stanford, you are a fool. You people on the left have been trying to connect McVeigh to Christianity since his murderous acts. Farrakan was probably the first to do so. McVeigh was an agnostic at best. His deeds do not reflect those of a true Christian. Unlike Islam, which encourages murder, especially of the innocent, Christianity does not.
You people on the left have married yourself to Islam because of your shared enemy…America. We know who and what your aims are and we are ready for you. We will no longer remain silent when you try to spread your lies and we will not let you destroy this great land of ours.
Lance commented:
If they do this it will confirm one of my “extremist” theories. They want us angry and in the streets so they can declare us a danger. I wouldn’t believe it possible but I’m still shaking my head in disbelief over what they’ve done already.
The line in the sand was crossed a hundred times by our enemy and we just kept backing up. I don’t know what the call will sound like (I’m not smart when it comes to gauging tolerance) but I’m listening.

olm commented:
I hope she does give Muslim women an exemption.
Then people should refuse to fly with Muslim women. Sorry. This administration has totally gone off the deep end and people are not going to take much more.
TxBitty commented:
Mmm…the government is “preferring” one religion over others? If the point is, trying to keep us safe by groping everyone, how will this keep us safer?
gastorgrab commented:
In a democracy, the majority is supposed to rule.
In a republic, each separate interest is supposed to define its own culture.
Nothing justifies the tailoring of rules to religious or cultural beliefs of any subset in a society. The ‘cultural plurality’ promised by Social Justice is inherently discriminatory!
Congress should respect no establishment of religion, nor should it respect any establishment of culture. It should neither accommodate, nor restrict, ANY exclusive set of values.
Our values define us as individuals, and we alone have a sole right to them.
Joanne commented:
“If the point is, trying to keep us safe by groping everyone, how will this keep us safer?”
Bingo, the point has nothing to do with keeping everyone safer. You can’t actually think about exempting those who should be profiled, if you have the safety of everyone in mind. Let’s remember – pay back is a b*tch, and all those white Christian conservative and republican extremists and enemies of democrats/liberals/socialists are going to have to pay for what you’ve just done.
Gman commented:
Like Evan Sayet said, We are intentionally making ourselves dumb. We are pretending to not know what we know. We act like the 3 year old all American girl is just as much of a threat as Muslims from the Middle East. All in the name of political correctness.
Hey John, maybe you should get out of your cave and catch up on the news for the last 10 years. Let me know how many Christians have tried to blow up planes compared to Muslims. There is a reason profiling should be done. To not do it is idiotic. To not do it is saying you care more about hurting someones feelings than protecting lives. Wanting Muslims not intentionally picked out doesn’t make you a good person and doesn’t make you any less bigoted, all it does is make you a moron for having zero common sense.
shibumi commented:
All females who must travel should simply google “burka costume” and buy one. Then see what happens. Oh, and make sure that your traveling companion is around to tape it all.
If more people took video of special treatment, the special treatment would stop. And if it didn’t stop, well then, every single female in the airport should have a burka on.
Then let’s see how they handle it.

#46,shibumi…..Oh let’s not restrict burkas to women only, let the men wear them too. Let everyone wear a burka.
One enterprising comment was to open up a “rent a burka” shop near airports. This would work very well. Rent in one city and return in the arrival city. Think of the employment that Big Sis would create if she follows though with this.
This administration is stupid enough to give a pass for the very people who are the reason we are doing all of this screening.
apodoca commented:
To all of you nuts who think muslims should be exempt, why is all of this necessary in the first place? What happened? What caused us to need all this vigilance? Don’t hand me any of your blame-America-first BS. Do we have just cause for profiling in this matter, yes or no?
nobama commented:
All of these airline terrorists were muslims 100%. If the muslim women are going to be able to refuse xray or pat down then we all need to get burkas to wear just to the airport. Why should a muslim woman be able to refuse and still get on a plane but a
Christian woman can’t? Sounds like discrimination and this will not stand. The airlines will find few people flying that do not have to, and more Americans will lose their jobs. If a muslim refuses to be checked they cannot fly just as they are doing to the rest of us. We aren’t at war with Islam. Islam is at war with us.
jainphx commented:
The terrorist are winning, they use our own fear of being called a racist against us. The fruit of the loom bomber never should have got on the plane, No luggage, one way ticket, paid in cash, was ushered on plane by a third party. Yet who pays for their stupidity? Why we do of course. The left has us all in their dirty grasp of political correctness. Can’t profile, and yet that is the most effective way to fight terror. Check out Elal, they know how to fight air terror. You are robbed by a oriental, but the police not being able to profile, search for a Hispanic. Does this make any sense at all. The left is just plain insane and we pay.
mark commented:
The fact that Napolitano even said or even thought about considering it means she should be immediately fired for incompetence. My recommendation is to send letters to the CEO’s of the major airlines. You want to see her removed? Then they will do it if business suffers as a result of her idiocy. Obama won’t do anything.
jainphx commented:
Muslim men have been behind 100% of the terror attacks so we search 3 year old blond girls. We search an old man and take away his metal of honor because they thought it could be used as a weapon, the man was in his eighties and was coming home from a convention of Medal of Honor winners. Yeah these are the ones to search. Grandmothers, children, everyone but the obvious muslim! these people make me sick.

…………………………………………
You reek hard-core racist. “Christian” is not a synonym, and never has been for”White.” North Africa was Christian before Europe was, before it was conquered and sacked by Muslims.
Timothy McVeigh was not a self-described Christian, and since he grossly violated the Commandment “Thou shalt not murder,” he proved he was not a follower of Christ.
But you call him “Christian” because he was “white.”
So Africans can’t be “Christian” because they aren’t “white” by your disgusting racist world-view. Ethiopians were CHristian before North Africa was Christian. Why do we have to put up with such narrow-minded, historical ignoramouses in this so-called “information age?”
Why is the US government even considering preferential treatment for one religion over all others? Hindu men, women and children can expect to be groped, too, even though no Hindus have carried out any terror attacks against the USA. Hindus have died at the hands of Muslim terrorists, many many over the past twenty years, and many more the past ten years, the Gudjarat riots were started by Muslims, attacking Hindus. Partition, the act that divided India so Muslims could have their own state, refusing to live in a multicultural society, ignoring Ghandi who called for a united India, pluralistic and tolerant, no — booting out families whose ties to that land went back a 1,000 years and more.
But, oh! Look! The bigot whines “bigotry!”
Marsh commented:
It’s a very dangerous popular misconception that only poor, uneducated, oppressed, foreign, young, arab, males carry out islamic jihadist attacks. Several studies on the demographics of islamic jihadists has actually shown that islamic jihadists are more wealthy and more educated that their peers. They’re usually doctors, dentists, engineers, computer specialists, etc. And they usually have attended Western universities or are here in the West as students.
And most are homegrown these days. That’s right. They’ll be born in the West in normal middle class neighborhoods. Wear stylish Western clothes. Listen to rap music. Drink alcohol. Smoke. Etc. Then they’ll usually go off to places like Pakistan or Yemen to get jihadist training in al qaeda training and then come back home to plan, organize and plot. Or they’ll just surf the web to learn how to wage militant jihad.
They can also come from any age group. And I mean ANY age group. Yes, even small children no more than 10 years old have been used as suicide bombers quite frequently. They have entire schools dedicated to churning out suicide bombers. No joke. And they can be elderly men as well. Also, arabs are a minority (although a dominant one) in the “islamic world”. Most muslims are asian and tons are black and white as well. Islamic jihadists come from all ethnic groups. And there’s tons, and I mean tons, of female islamic jihadists. So you can’t let them off either. You gotta check them.
The only common trait that runs through all these islamic jihadists is obvious – they’re all muslims. We have to profile muslims. There’s no getting around it.
centra commented:
Terrorists attacks committed by muslims 16,500 and still counting. Terrorist attacts committed by Christians, Hindus? Yes it is time to profile. Muslim women are also suicide bombers.

I’m going to refrain from calling you names and sinking to your base level, but let me tell you this: if you think that watching Diane Sawyer and her ilk will make you infinitely ‘smarter and more worldly’ than those watching Fox news, you’re mistaken. Those news outlets purport to be unbiased but they are not. Their intent is to pretend to be unbiased while spewing their Socialistic dreams for America.
This country is not in big trouble because of them, those ‘Fox viewers’ but more in trouble because of people like YOU. Utilize some degree of skepticism. Try doing some more in-depth research of those ‘news’ items you are being spoon fed. Do not just sit there and become a sponge for the Progressive Libs, but THINK. Understand this: Fox news may not be unbiased, but at least they’re not hypocritical to their audience. Your news comes from people depending on your inability to think and process critically.

The Department of Homeland Security needs to be shut down. It’s an agency used against the American citizen. We have the FBI and CIA that is all we need.

No Janet, we will not tolerate this. All of you aren’t long for your jobs. You should all be arrested and charged for committing fraud and treason. They are letting a Keyan born foreigner ride roughshod over the Constitution and citizens. If we have to physically remove you all, we will.
Arch commented:
John Stanford’s #8 comment is either a spoof or the most clueless I have seen on this blog. It’s either very funny or stunningly stupid.
We should stop terrorists where ever we find them. If we are looking for explosives, pat downs, X-rays, mm wave and metal detectors won’t do it. Dogs will. For $6,000 you can train a beagle to find anything from C4 to binary components. Dogs can also screen 100% of luggage and cargo in the terminals. As an added benefit, they are usually brighter and more likeable than TSA agents and smarter that the Secretary of DHS for sure.
John needs to take this little test. Who flew those aircraft into the WTC, Seventh Day Adventists? Who shot that recruiter in Little Rock? Who tried to blow up the NYC subway system? Who tried to detonate a bomb in his underwear over Detroit? Who killed 14 people at Fort Hood? Who tried to blow up his SUV in Times Square? I’ll give you a hint, all of these people were males between the ages of 19 and 45 and they were all muslims.
If the police are looking for a 25 year old 6′ tall black man who just robbed a bank, they don’t stop 5′ tall white grandmothers. That’s not racial profiling, it’s rational law enforcement.
What DHS is doing to everyone is a violation of the Fourth Amendment:
“The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.”
For people who howled at the moon over wire tapping international calls from known terrorists or stopping Mexicans in rental cars driving the speed limit, they have been uncharacteristically silent on the DHS gross violation.

As Americans learn more about Islam, the aspect they find most objectionable is not its theology (such as whether Allah is God or not) nor its symbolism (such as an Islamic cultural center in lower Manhattan) but its law code, called the Sharia. Rightly, they say no
to a code that privileges Muslims over non-Muslims and men over women and contains many elements inimical to modern life.
we are wading knee deep in Islamism aka: Socialism.. yet the powers that be are not only deliberately ignoring that obvious fact, but are gainfully employed in promoting Sharia’s ascendancy..
No previous single press release or statement by CAIR more clearly reveals its ideological ties and service to the Saudis, and their Wahhabi ideologues – and its willingness to use word games, deception and moral equivalence to avoid revealing its true objectives.
much more here..

@John stanford
What you say about McVeigh is complete garbage. McVeigh was emphatically not a Christian and if you weren’t so ignorant you’d know that he disavowed religion generally and Christianity specifically. Just because you join a crazy militia doesn’t mean that you’re a Christian.
You might want to read his prison interview and quit getting your talking points from Rachel Maddow or Keith Olberman because they’ve got their facts wrong.
Marine commented:
If one person has to be subjected to search, pat downs and screening then all people should be.
Fair is fair….dont like it – dont fly.
Muslim or Christian, white or black, tall or short – makes absolutely NO DIFFERENCE. People should be treated equally – if we require somebody to show their picture when they get an I.D. then everyone should have to – if they refuse – then NO I.D.
If we require anbody to get searched then all should be searched. True equality means the same treatment for all.
Any variation of treatment (for or against) based on the color of skin or differences in beliefs is racist and separtist whether it is based on favor of or on discord with that section of society.
