random musings

hold on a second. something slipped past me, something that was so obvious i can't believe i missed it. remember michelle malkin's book about racial profiling? why is "racial profiling" even relevant in the war against terror, and i suppose if you extrapolate, the war againt islamofascism? and i'm going to pull out the little p.c. disclaimer, because i know that word is thrown about by many conservative-bordering-on-scary blogs and it has a bad connotation - what i mean is that there are a few crazy fascist motherfuckers who pervert the idea of islam and use it to fuck with disenfranchised people's heads and teach them to do bad things to other people, not that islam in and of itself is bad, okay? it is a war of ideals - western ideals against really extreme, misogynistic, civil-rights hating, violent, and oppresive ideals present in islamofascism. any dope can join an islamofascist movement, regardless of race. john walker lindh, jose padilla - anyone. this isn't against any country that is comprised of one "people"; this war is without borders encompassing people of many nationalities.

so really, this is a war against a really really extreme and perverted form of an otherwise harmless religion. it is against a violent cult. what does ethnic or racial background have to do with this? if you simply do a little research and figure out who these extremist religious leaders are and find out who they are preaching to and go after suspect terror cells masking as "religious groups" - doesn't that make more sense? why would racial profiling even work? have an answer to that, michelle malkin?

p.s. yes, i know about the first amendment, and the obvious concerns if this solution were to be implemented - i'm merely just stating an observation.
