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?

The point is .... are your immigration etc really stupid enough to imagine a seven year old on holiday
is a terrorist ?

Could be wired and wrapped in C4, you know.

I could entirely forgive the first time it happned but for it to be repeated and repeated again ?

_You'd_ forgive?

You're nothing but a judgmental, self-righteous, arrogant son of a
bitch, so *** what you'd forgive and what you wouldn't.

Are your databases that incompetently run ?

I'd say it's better to have a few bad hits and err on the side of
caution. YMMV

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.

He's expressed a desire never to visit the USA again so I guess you guys left your mark.

Do you believe in Santa Claus, dumb ass?

Innocence lost. Oh, well...
