Seven-year-old Muslim boy stopped in US on suspicion of being a terrorist

For seven-year-old Javaid Iqbal, the holiday to Florida was a dream trip
to
reward him for doing well at school.
But he was left in tears after he was stopped repeatedly at airports on
suspicion of being a terrorist.
This kid - isn't the first one this happened to. There were some
American's - I believe a few to have been "political" figures - who were
stopped under the same conditions - their names matching names on a watched
list. So - what's the point?
Yes, it is a system with a few quirks - but it isn't like "he" was the only
one - stopped. And I DOUBT it was for being a "terrorist". His name as the
story said - "matched" another on that infamous list. He was no more a
terrorist than those above - mentioned. I do feel for the child, but again,
he isn't alone in that having happened.
Let's hope he "doesn't" grow up to be one of the assholes who helped create
the situation - to begin with.
