The Flying Dutchman Initiative

I love Christmas, everything about it. Celebrating the birth of Christ, Santa Claus, Rupolph, Elves, Snowmen in Top Hats, Christmas Trees and , of course, a terrorist setting fire to his underwear on a commercial flight. No need to worry, however. Head of Homeland Security Janet Napolitano has assured us that the"system worked" in preventing this second attack on our soil under the Obama Administration. The fact that this man was a known Muslim extremist, who was on a Federal watch list; and whose own father had warned the authorities about, doesn't really matter to Miss Napolitano , because , as she stated, the "system worked". I'm assuming the system she's talking about is the top secret anti-terror program known only as "The Flying Dutchman Initiative". Under this program, a Dutch film maker is placed on every commercial flight , to and from the U.S., in strategic seating positions. Then, once the terrorist gets through airport security with his underwear bomb intact and gets on the plane , he will quickly be subdued by this "Flying Dutchman" will a properly applied headlock. Well done Miss Napolitano. Hey, it's gotta work better than profiling muslims right? The real question is; why are these attacks happening on our soil under Obama ,and did not happen under Bush? The answer lies in one of my favorite books by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle; The Complete Sherlock Holmes" Profiling is the answer. Profiling is how you stop the terrorists. Profiling was the chosen method that Holmes used to solve crimes and catch killers. Sherlock Holmes would often determine who the perpetrator was by simply studying people. Their habits, their mannerisms, the way they were dressed, their manner of speech, and yes, I'm sure Holmes would have used religion, if he were looking for a muslim extremeist.There is nothing racist , or politically incorrect about this, it is simply good detective work.
