It seems odd that if whites become terrorists - no profiling is done. If nonwhites are terrorists, then minorities are effectively guilty until they can prove themselves innocent.
Arabs are NOT the only terrorists.
But in all of those situations the government agencies involved specifically targeted the white suspects and hunted them down until they were captured. Heck, in the Olympic bombing they knew the suspect was white but they arrested the wrong white guy anyway. I didn't hear any of you people on the Left complain about Richard Jewell's rights being violated.
Ever see how serial killers are profiled? Most of them are white males (heck during the DC sniper shootings the media had practically convicted every white male gun owner in the DC area of the crime). The same thing goes with child molesters.
I know that not all terrorists are Arabs, but the fact remains that most of the terrorists in this world ARE Arabs. It would be stupid for law enforcement and the military to ignore this fact. Maybe when Arabs stop acting like terrorists, people will stop thinking they are terrorists.
And yes, as someone who has the unfortunate luck of being of Arab descent (though I would never ever hyphenate MY nationality), I have every damn right in the world to say this.
