We tolorate so much bullshit to get on a plane. Here in the US, we allow our buttholes to be fingered and our balls to be fondled for our "safety"

Imo the real damage to society was done not by terrorists but by the politicians who enacted counter terrorist laws

Who funded those groups? who put them up to what they did?
