Profiling the Muslims do you agree Y/N
Please read this and reflect!
The paper stated today that some Muslim doctor is
saying we are profiling him because he has been checked
three times while getting on an airplane.
A Letter From An American Airlines Pilot. This well
spoken man, who is a pilot with American Airlines, says
what is in his heart beautifully....read, absorb and pass
on....it's time to get answers from those who claim their
terrorist members do not represent them why are their
leaders not LOUDLY AND FIERCELY AND CONTINUOUSLY
condemning their visible murderous brethren.
YOU WORRY ME!
By American Airlines Pilot - Captain John
Maniscalco
"I've been trying to say this since 9-11 but you
worry me. I wish you didn't. I wish when I walked down the
streets of this country that I love, that your color and
culture still blended with the beautiful human landscape
we enjoy in this country. But you don't blend in anymore.
I notice you, and it worries me.
I notice you because I can't help it anymore.
People from your homelands, professing to be Muslims, have
been attacking and killing my fellow citizens and our
friends for more than 20 years now. I don't fully
understand their grievances and hate but I know that
nothing can justify the inhumanity of their attacks.
On September 11, nineteen ARAB-MUSLIMS hijacked
four jetliners in my country. They cut the throats of
women in front of children and brutally stabbed to dea th
others. They took control of those planes and crashed
them into buildings killing thousands of proud fathers,
loving sons, wise grandparents, elegant daughters, best
friends, favorite coaches, fearless public servants, and
children's mothers.
The Palestinians Celebrated, The Iraqis were
overjoyed as was most of the Arab world. So I notice you
now. I don't want to be worried. I don't want to be
consumed by the same rage and hate and prejudice that has
destroyed the soul of these terrorists. But I need your
help. As a rational American, trying to protect my country
and family in an irrational and unsafe world, I must know
how to tell the difference between you,and the
Arab/Muslim terrorist.
How do I differentiate between the true
Arab/Muslim-Americans and the Arab/Muslims in our
communities who are attending our schools, enjoying our
parks, and living in OUR communities under the protection
of OUR constitution, while they plot the next attack that
will slaughter these same good neighbors and children? The
events of September 11th changed the answer. It is not my
responsibility to determine which of you embraces our
great country, with ALL of its religions, with ALL of its
different citizens, with all of its faults. It is time for
every Arab/Muslim in this country to determine it for me.
I want to know, I demand to know, and I have a
right to know whether or not you love America. Do you
pledge allegiance to its flag? Do you proudly display it
in front of your house, or on your car?
Do you pray in your many daily prayers that
Allah will bless this nation, that He will protect and
prosper it? Or do you pray that Allah with destroy it in
one of your "Jihads"? Are you thankful for the freedom
that only this nation affords? A freedom that was paid for
by the blood of hundreds of thousands of patriots who
gave their lives for this country? Are you willing to
preserve this freedom by paying the ultimate sacrifice?
Do you love America ? If this is your commitment, then I
need YOU to start letting ME know about it.
Your Muslim leaders in this nation should be
flooding the media at this time with hard facts on your
faith, and what hard actions you are taking as a community
and as a religion to protect the United States of
America. Please, no more benign overtures of regret for
the death of the innocent because I worry about who you
regard as innocent. No more benign overtures of
condemnation for the unprovoked attacks because I worry
about what is unprovoked to you. I am not interested in
any more sympathy... I am only interested in action.
What will you do for America - our great country -- at
this time of crisis, at this time of war?
I want to see Arab-Muslims waving the AMERICAN
flag in the streets. I want to hear you chanting "Allah
Bless America " I want to see young Arab/Muslim men
enlisting in the military. I want to see a commitment of
money, time, and emotion to the victims of this butchering
and to this nation as a whole. The FBI has a list of over
400 people they want to talk to regarding the WTC attack.
Many of these people live and socialize in Muslim
communities. You know them. You know where theyare.
Hand them over to us, now! But I have seen
little even approaching this sort of action. Instead I
have seen an already closed and secretive community close
even tighter. You have disappeared from the streets. You
have posted armed security guards at your facilities.
You have threatened lawsuits. You have screamed
for protection from reprisals.
The very few Arab/Muslim representativ es that
HAVE appeared in the media were defensive and
equivocating. They seemed more concerned with making sure
that the United States proves who was responsible before
taking action. They seemed more concerned with protecting
their fellow Muslims from violence directed towards them
in the United States and abroad than they did with
supporting our country and denouncing "leaders" like
Khadafi, Hussein, Farrakhan, and Arafat.
If the true teachings of Islam proclaim tolerance
and peace and love for all people then I want chapter and
verse from the Koran and statements from popular Muslim
leaders to back it up. What good is it if the teachings in
the Koran are good and pure and true when your "leaders"
are teaching fanatical interpretations, terrorism, and
intolerance?
It matters little how good Islam SHOULD BE if
large numbers of the world's Muslims interpret the
teachings of Mohammed incorrectly and adhere to a
degenerative form of the religion. A form that has been
demonstrated to us over and over again. A form whose
structure is built upon a foundation of violence, death,
and suicide. A form whose members are recruited from the
prisons around the world. A form wh ose members (some as
young as five years old) are seen day after day, week in
and week out, year after year, marching in the streets
around the world, burning effigies of our presidents,
burning the American flag, shooting weapons into the
air. A form whose members convert from a peaceful
religion, only to take up arms against the grea t United
States of America, the country of their birth. A form
whose rules are so twisted, that their traveling members
refuse to show their faces at airport security
checkpoints, in the name of Islam.
Do you and your fellow Muslims hate us because
our women proudly show their faces in public rather than
cover up like a shameful whore? Do you and your fellow
Muslims hate us because we drink wine with dinner, or
celebrate Christmas? Do you and your fellow Muslims hate
us because we have befriended Israel, the ONLY FRIENDLY
CIVILIZED SOCIETY in the Muslim/Arab area, that thinks and
acts like most Americans.
And if you and your fellow Muslims hate us, then
why in the world are you even here? Are you here to take
our money? Are you here to undermine our peace and
stability? Are you here to destroy us? If so, I want you
to leave. I want you to go back to your desert sandpit
where women are treated like rats and dogs. I want you to
take your religion, your friends, and your family back to
your Islamic extremists, and STAY THERE! We will NEVER
give in to your influence, your retarded mentality, your
twisted, violent, intolerant religion.
We will NEVER allow the attacks of September 11,
or any others for that matter, to take away that which is
so precious to us: Our rights under the greatest
constitution in the world. I want to know where every
Arab/ Muslim in this country stands and I think it is my
right and the right of every true citizen of this country
to demand it. A right paid for by the blood of thousands
of my brothers and sisters who died protecting the very
constitution that is protecting you and your family. I am
pleading with you to let me know. I want you here as my
brother, my neighbor, my friend, As a fellow American.
But there can be no gray areas or ambivalence regarding
your allegiance and it is up to YOU, to show ME, where YOU
stand." "Until then you worry me"
