WTF!
Apparently this country has forgotten where exactly the 9/11 terrorists came from:
"Thousands of students from Saudi Arabia are enrolling on college campuses across the United States this semester under a new educational exchange program brokered by President Bush and Saudi King Abdullah. " (H/T Captainsquarters).
And President Bush is brokering a deal to let more potential terrorists in? This has got to be one of the stupidist things that I have seen all day (although the day is young) and perhaps all week. Let me be clear on one point: I do not consider all Saudis terrorists. However, considering the lax monitoring of student visa's and considering that daring probe beyond the usual questions apparently constitutes harrassment of practitioners of the Religion of Peace, this seems to me a very stupid policy!
CaptainEd (http://www.captainsquartersblog.com/mt/archives/008028.php#trackbacks) attempts to argue that allowing 15,000 young Muslim men into this country can somehow serve to "moderate" the radical elements of Islam. Sorry, sir as much as I appreciate and admire your opnions, on this you are dead wrong.
Admissions offices across the country are probably jumping for joy at the thot of all those full-tuition students. And we know well the whorish nature academia. In what fields do these students study? Almost universally real (hard) science. Let me speculate for a minute: Aside from the symbolism, why did the terriorists of 9/11 choose the World Trade Center? The WTC was a uniquely constructed building with a central structural core and with cantilevered floors. I suspect that someone (hint: these weren't philosphy or poli-sci majors) did their homework and determined how to inflict maximum damage. Was the 1993 attack benchtest? Was it an attempt to destablize the building and collect information? I don't know for sure, but it seems logicial and would one way I would approach the problem.
My opinion: keep the Saudis out, at least until they manage to "earn" their way back.
Note to self- Pick up another couple of boxes of .308.
