Munky, yes I did go back and re-read your posts. My apologies. You weren't saying that they deserve it just that that's the way the world works. However, I still think that evidence can be found that ppl of all ethnicities, or at least some other than just Arabs, collaborated together in the planning and execution of the 9/11 attacks. The black French Algerian guy is one, Jose Padilla is another. These are ppl off the top of my head that I know about. I'm sure Al Qaeda has received help from whites in the planning stages, especially when they were in places like Berlin and London. So when I mentioned ppl of other races that have committed terrorists acts, I wasn't describing crimes in general but rather the planning and execution of 9/11.
The funny thing is, however, that when whites do commit terrorist acts, nobody in the gov't decides that we should change around the way that we do security. Sure small changes may be made, but it is not a complete overhaul of the system. After the Oklahoma City bombing nobody suggested that angry white men should be thoroughly checked. After the Unabomber terrorized ppl, nobody suggested that our postal system should now start scanning mail for explosives or other harmful substances. It didn't even register in the minds of the media, public, or politicians because as a white society, we all just figured that these ppl are radicals that do not adequately represent how the rest of society behaves. Therefore, it is not rational to take away our civil liberties and spend ungodly amounts overhauling the system since we all know that events like these are tragic but unpreventable. Yet, when some Muslim men perform a terrorist act, there is great confusion among Americans as to whether or not they are radicals or rather represent their faith. We spend tons of airtime in the media holding politicians and agencies accountable since it appears in our mind that terrorist events can be 100% prevented. We overhaul the system and then overhaul it some more.
