Chicken and the egg......
America has long tried to change the world into it's own vision. The
UK has been its Poodle, certainly since Thatchers time, and probably
before.The 'Special relationship' IMHO is something which exists only
in the minds of some British politicians.
I do feel however, that the time has come for 'profiling' at airport
security. The Authorities know who is a 'probable, and who certainly
isn't, based on the intelligence information which they possess - why
aren't they using it?


Ask the Dutch. They're the ones who let the NUB* onto the plane.
