And if we were worried about Ireland attacking us, every Meagan and Sean would be interrogated too. And I agree terenz, that some FT's (or anyone) thinks this is OK. This is a false sense of security as the energy will be used up with lots of dead end leads. I thought the same thing. Mean spirited people could express "suspiciousness" over someone they just don't like - based on a "look" they don't like - colored hair, ring in nose, long hair or shaved head, or three piece suit. Since these hijackers used their real names - comparing all names to a "list" of criminals would be fine. They certainly had this list for draft evaders during the Viet Nam was. My brother was on that list.
