UNDERWEAR BOMBER OR COKE BOMBER? - Just this week I was a party to a conference call on airport security which was conducted by a high ranking member of the Homeland Security Committee. The Obama Administration, just as did the Bush Administration, is concentrating on passengers, and new high tech devices are promised, which will be capable of finding "underwear bombs." The problem is, there is no piece of equipment that can find liquid explosives hidden in a bag of Coca Cola syrup. Every day tens of thousands of pounds of food, including large metal canisters of carbinated water, are moving past airport security. Most of is examined with a quick look and virtually nothing is run through x-ray machines. At the same time, Muslims have gravitated to airport service jobs across the country. Virtually all aircraft cleaners working for Delta Airlines in Minneapolis are Somali Muslims. Meanwhile Mikey Hicks, an 8 year old New Jersey Cub Scout and frequent traveler, is constantly hassled by TSA because he shares the name of a suspicious person. He was first patted down at the gate for weapons when he was just two years old. Bottom line: Security at the airport is a show process to make us feel good and provides virtually no protection.

RALLY AT UN TO PROTEST MURDERS - Seven Coptic Christians, including some children, were killed and fifteen others injured during a Christmas mass in Eqypt. Three Muslim gunmen were attempting to assassinate Bishop Kirollos of the Nag Hamadi Diocese. The media reported the attack was revenge for an alleged rape, but it turns out it was a government approved attack because Christians had refused to participate in a forced "reconciliation" with Muslims from the last murderous attack in November. The bishop called the attackers "Muslim radicals" and said "This is a religious war about how they can finish off the Christians in Egypt." Information on the rally can be found here.
