Protecting Us from Suicide Bombers

Ace of Trump wonders whether Britain or the U.S. would be willing to implement the same types of policies as Israel in stopping suicide bombers. Thus far, I think the answer is clearly no, since suicide bombers have not struck often enough.

While the U.S. has been particularly fortunate in the absence of suicide bombers, it is much too easy for a European Islamofascist to enter the U.S. with a passport and blow himself up on a bus or in a restaurant. I believe the real surprise is that it hasn't already happened. Sadly, until it does, we won't take the precautions that will be necessary.

Meanwhile, some imams in London are still saying that certain suicide bombings are justified.
