#1 I know it's no surprise to anyone here, but I wonder when/if the LLL will finally notice that these stories are never about Lutheran or Amish bombers.

Most likely, they'd rather die of terminal PC-itis that admit that, while most Muslims may not be terrorist bombers, 99.9% of all terrorist bombers are Muslims.

The LLL (and that includes the "mainstream" media) need a liberal Cluebatâ¢ application. Soon.

#2 Philippinos turning terrorists is the proof that Islam is the problem. Here in Saudi Arabia, a large part of the labor force are catholic philippinos. These people, in spite of being abused and exploited by their masters, the saudis, always have an smile in their faces and are the kindest, friendliest, gentlest and most generous people one can ever meet. They will never think of slitting their saudi masters' throats, as they very well deserve it. But, get them to read the Koran and they are ready to blow somebody up.

#3 A4617 - right on! Indeed, the "Flips" (as the American Phillipinos call themselves - now catching on in Saudi) are the good guys in Saudi. I dunno if you work for Aramco, but what you say is true of those who do. When you wanted something actually done and an American or Brit wasn't in a position to help you, you skipped the Indians and PakisWakis and Saudis -- and hoped a Phillipino was somehow involved, cuz that's who you could count on to assist you. I was very happy in my engineering Dept cuz we had Phillipinos in many key admin positions - and they were invaluable in being able to actually get shit done in a system that pulled out almost all the stops to prevent succeeding. Many of my efforts to drag the Saudis (kicking and screaming because I wouldn't cooperate with them in building massive Task Forces of sycophant Saudis, heh - that's what got me canned once) into the Information Age were aided by terrific Flips. I'd trust them any day.
