Townhall.com::If I were a terrorist::By Cal Thomas
Taking a page from the unpublished O.J. Simpson book, if I were a terrorist, what would be my domestic strategy for bringing America to its knees?
The recent incident aboard a US Airways plane in Minneapolis exposed one component of my strategy. I would have suggested that six imams shout "Allah" as they approached the plane for boarding and then not take their assigned seats once onboard. I would have told them to sit in seats where they could block every exit, including the one in first class, which is closest to the cockpit.
When a passenger raises concerns in a note to a flight attendant and authorities remove them from the plane in handcuffs, I would call a news conference and hold other media events, including an interfaith "pray-in" at Washington's Reagan National Airport. I would hurl charges of religious bigotry and racial profiling at cowering officials.
