It's not that I doubt their training, because they have to pass American medical boards to practice here, but that given the situation in the Middle East and that a doctor was part of the round up in Texas after 911-it is entirely possible that some of them are in sleeper cells. Since so many of the mosques have been downright reluctant to vociferously protest the jihad philosophy and since outsiders are not privy to the message conveyed in most mosques, we have no idea what is being preached as fact. In my suburb we have three mosques. Muslim students in my classes have shown me notes, literature and books that are associated with their religion that in some regards are just as inflammatory as rhetoric being issued from Saudi.(You could say the same thing I guess about the Mormon temples, but I don't see any Mormons roaming around blowing things up!) I would love to be able to take everyone at face value and think that no one group has any more inclination for violence than another, but when you look at the facts-the "Asian" denotation of the =British press and NYT withstanding-all of these terrorists are Muslim.And what is doubly damning is that here, our powers of political correctness have us randomly inspecting everyone for terror, when Britain is having measured success finding terror suspects using that dreaded technique-profiling. <BR/><BR/>Oh and Darren,for the record, for anyone that wants to complain about the Scooter Libby commutation, I have the historic stats on my blog.Ellen Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02845981491726296767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10348701.post-90640391127476881822007-07-03T22:02:00.000-07:002007-07-03T22:02:00.000-07:00Could it be that they are protesting the state of ...Could it be that they are protesting the state of healthcare under the socialized medical scheme the Brits have?
