Civil Rights Group Challenges Israel’s Airport: Does Not Use Logic

by Eric on March 19, 2008

A civil rights group claimed that Israel’s airport uses racial profiling to discriminate against Arabs. Duh. While not every Arab is a terrorist, every terrorist in Israel has been an Arab. It is sad that Israel’s security situation requires that anyone be scrutinized, but that is the way it has to be so people don’t die.

If I can choose between civil rights and discrimination, I will choose civil rights. If I can choose between safety and civil rights, safety comes first. No question.

See the story at the Mercury News.

    Unfortunatey, there have been a number of Jewish terrorists, including the recently arrested Jacob Teitel, just to name one (Baruch Goldstein, Rabin's assassin are two more).

    I wish it weren't the case, but we don't have a clean slate.

      Sadly true, however, none of them ever hijacked or blew up a plane.
