What criteria do you believe needs to be met, before an alleged
terrorist group is believed dangerous enough to warrant action by the
authorities?

Hard to say exactly, as the issue is very complex with many variable
and extenuating circumstances. Certainly a real threat is pretty
objective. Simply being Muslim is not. According to the definition
of a terrorist in the "Patriot" Act an abortion clinic bomber clearly
fits the description yet you never hear them referred to that way.
These days, being Muslim appears to be adequate to get you that label
regardless of the evidence against you. That is just plain wrong.
It's plain and simple racism. We should know better.


More double talk from Hal. He can't tell you when the government
should act because that is too complex but whenever the government does
act the only motive is "plain and simple racism".
