10 Years Later: 9/11 Ticket Agent Let Hijackers Board b/c “I’m Not Prejudiced”

Debbie Schlussel  "One of real lessons of the 9/11 Islamic attacks on America continues to go unheeded because so many Americans would rather die or sacrifice their fellow Americans’ lives, rather than be accused of prejudice. "....
"And while the ACLU files lawsuit after lawsuit every time a Muslim gets a paper cut or breaks a nail."
....

They seem so nice.

"Remember, political correctness–especially PC pandering to Muslims–kills. It didn’t just kill 3,000 Americans on 9/11. It killed plenty before and plenty since, including the 13 murder victims of Islam at Fort Hood.

"Sadly, the U.S. Government contradicts itself in its absurd message. On the one hand, it tells us, “if you see something, say something.” But, then, it tells you that if you say something, you are prejudiced against “innocent, peaceful Muslims.” Don’t believe it."

 DOROTHY RABINOWITZ :  A Dark Day's Enduring Life   "A note about CNN's "Footnotes of 9/11," which takes up the subject of people who are mentioned in the "9/11 Commission Report." They were part of the history of the day, if peripheral figures, though in one or two instances they emerge as more. One of the more memorable of the eight subjects here is the Dulles Airport ticket agent who checked in two of the hijackers—Middle Eastern men whose look and demeanor immediately raised his suspicions. The agent followed the men, he reports, then stopped himself from alerting anyone. He didn't want to be accused of prejudice, of harboring suspicions because of racial feelings. A vignette from a footnote—but one that has much to tell about some of the underlying reasons for the ease with which the hijackers were able to board the planes and fulfill their murderous mission."
