Ann Coulter, could be the least bothered with her. She not even good comedy like Pam.

Air security, Israeli style:

I am all for ethnic profiling. If Dutch people are more prone to drugs trafficing: target them. If statistically most (all?) passenger planes are blown up by Muslims: target profile them.
Ethnic profiling in marketing is very effective and nobody has a problem with that. With ethnic profiling for security, the PC brigade starts to march.

Well, the last US terrorist to use a plane as a weapon and fly it into a building (blowing it up in the process) was a white dude from Texas called Joe Stack - and he committed his terrorist act in February 2010.

His gripe was about paying taxes (and he was brought up Catholic it appears).

If we wilfully ignore the mountain/molehill issue, I guess we could argue that white Catholic dudes who are anti-government should be profiled in the US (or perhaps ex-Marines who want to blow up government buildings should be used as reasons for profiling all ex-Marines??)

But guys - I sense a collective sense-of-humour-failure. You do realise that most of the world just laughs at Anne Coulter (even though I agree with DDS that she doesn't have as much comedic value as Pam).

Cheers,
Shafique

Ethnic profiling in marketing is about selling the most number of products to a certain demographic.
Ethnic profiling in matters of national security is about finding 1 or 2 people amongst 10,000 and more.

That would'nt sound too feasible rit?

Anyways as Shafique accurately stated a terrorist can come in all shapes and colors, ethnic profiling would serve no purpose apart from causing discontent and further alienating the affected population.

I think I'll stick to El Al's track record rather than to the advice of google scholars.
