.. The security rep said right away
that the airports and security services need to start observing the
likely people by body language and by using common sense instead of
imposing restrictions upon everyone. Let's face it, if you had two
guys at the checkout desk - one of them is a ginger haired Scot in a
kilt and the other is a middle-eastern looking guy with shifty eyes
and a slightly nervous disposition, then which one do you think is out
to drop the plane?

It might be pointed out that in this case racial profiling based upon "a
middle eastern looking guy with shifty eyes" would not have been fruitful in
this case. What SHOULD have kept this guy off a plane was his own father
notifying authorities that he could be trouble..

Exactly. They got as far as "Nigerian banker"...
