How Israelis Secure Airports

The federal government's ham-fisted approach to "security" betrays an intellectual bankruptcy.  We let anybody and everybody in, and then treat loyal Americans like suspicious criminals.

Independent foreign correspondent Michael Totten explains how Israel does it.  But first, he briefly describes the sinkhole our unimaginative security "experts" have fallen into.

While armies tragically tend to fight the last war, the TSA looks for the item the most recent terrorist used. 

Terrorists have yet to use the same weapon twice, and the TSA isn't even looking for whatever they'll try to use next. I can think of all sorts of things a person could use to wreak havoc on a plane that aren't banned. Security officials should pay less attention to objects, and more attention to people.

He goes on to explain how Israelis profile and categorize people, subjecting the more suspicious to polite but rigorous questioning.  Totten is all for this approach even though he himself falls into the suspicious category every time he travels through Israel because of his extensive Middle Eastern travels.

While we have had various terrorist incidents since 9/11, Israel has had none.

Stand With Israel

Israelis are also Western Heroes, standing guard on the Eastern frontier of tyranny, bigotry, murder, and ignorance.  And they refuse to surrender.  I'm proudly flying their flag on this blog to show my support

Israel is a tiny island of civility, completely surrounded by medieval torturers who still openly admire the nazis and seek to emulate their "final solution."  The 1.2 million Muslims living in the Jewish State enjoy freedoms their coreligionists in Muslim countries can only dream of.

Helen Thomas disagrees, which makes me even more sure that I am right...

Islam for Dhimmis: Flotilla of Fools

Jihad Jackassery is a virulent strain of the same brain disease that spawned Latte Leftism.  Self-loathing liberals who hate the culture that nurtured them are the most susceptible.

Latte Leftists
Starting from the 60's we have had a phenomenon I call Latte Leftism.  Sanctimonious lefties who got their Latin America experience from Taco Bell U belligerently defend all manner of socialist terror going on south of our border.  Murderers Fidel Castro, Che Guevara, and Hugo Chavez are their heroes.


Now, a new strain has broken out: Jihad Jackassery

Ignorant liberals loudly defend Islam and make serial excuses for its bloody predations on the civilized world. 

They have never experienced the displeasure of living day to day in a shit-smeared Muslim hell-hole.  A place where goats and dancing boys are the main attraction for men.  A very illiberal place, where speaking your mind or doing what you want can get you killed.

We should sponsor an international field trip for these ignorant dingbats.  Dump them off where sharia reigns supreme and women are draped head to toe and chained to the kitchen.

Let that stupid little mental midget Jew-hating girl who confronted David Horowitz go live in Saudia Arabia or the Pashtun Belt for awhile.  I'd love to hear her stories when she returned.  If she returned.  She's pretty mouthy, and 7th century misogynists don't tolerate strong women.  Just ask Hirsi Ali.

Beyond Entertainment and into the Danger Zone

With the Palestinian "Freedom Flotilla" incident, these self-loathing western patsies have gone from entertaining to dangerous. 

It was a deliberate, premeditated provocation. 
Israel allows aid ships to dock at its ports.  They inspect the cargo, then allow it to go overland to Hamas-istan.  The only reason for violating this legal Israeli and Egyptian blockade was to give Israel a black eye.

This convoy was nothing but leftwing international agitprop mixed with Muslim passive-aggressive provocation.  Violently force a confrontation, then cry and scream when responsible people step in and smack you.

A New, New World Order
This is about Turkey rejecting the west and becoming the Hero of the Muslim World.  Worse, European dhimmis played a key role, doing the bidding of their Muslim overlords.

Europe is dying, demographically, financially and culturally.  America is vulnerable, with a naive and callow cosmopolitan at the helm.  Enemies are drawing long knives...
