The bomb in question seems a bit lame to me, I would consider it more of an incendiary device than a "Bomb". Maybe I have it wrong, but the word "bomb" as used here, implies high explosives to me.

However I feel the major concern here is that they were not only building this device, but trying to spread their ideas to others, this is a concern no matter how "low tech" it may be, as it can always be improved upon by others with more resources.

But that would be racist.

It's a double edged sword.

It's called "Profiling" and is not racism. and I think it should be done. I am for it. Even if I am going to be profiled, I have no problem with it.

I agree totally.

But You weren't very happy about it a few posts ago when someone said something to the effect that "That's OK because you are an Iranian"

That's what I meant when I said "It's a two edged sword".

Personally I am in favour of some form of "profiling", but where does profiling end and racism begin? That is the $64 question.

Racial Profiling goes aginst the Equal Protection Clause of the United States Constitution.
