One thing cannot be argued IMO. We currently are and should do MORE profiling in protecting American civilians in the war on terror.
I was not one that agreed, and I would argue their religion should just be one of several factors.
The other factors include profiling of age, race, traveling habits etc.

It hasn't been but a month or two ago since a US Army officer gunned down fellow soldiers in TX on an Army installation. He would have had to gone through at least one security clearance just as protocol to even access files as military personnel, and probably a fairly high level considering his rank and tasks. All check financial background, family history, criminal history, court history... the higher the clearance the more indepth. Some of those clearances even require personal interviews of persons who have known you... but he was not caught. I seriously doubt that general profiling of every person of a specific persuasion or genetic makeup would do one ounce of good.
