NAKED aiport body scanners

[جوري]

:sl:

I guess westerners can never really get away from the porn and sadistic-exhibitionistic roots that they love so much (the sort we have seen at abu gharib) how far erased from memory?.. not only are these scanners in violation of child-pornography laws (just search google) but they are really basically aimed at Muslims and I am pretty sure they'll restrict it to profiled people (Muslims) or those they wish to see naked!

If you want to go make pilgrimage or whatnot, be prepared to nullify your efforts to the gawking eyes of dog ****s at the airports!

7asbona Allah wa'ni3ma alwakeel!

Im going to wear aluminium pants because to be honest its ridiculous, i believe they've been planning for this a long time it just needed something to sway the public

what will they do if the next time the terrorist puts explosives in places i wont mention here , what will happen then ?

a friend of my a very respectful elderly Syrian man and his wife were asked to remove the diaper from their granddaughter in the airport because elderly Muslims love to wrap explosives in children diapers...

you know what the problem is, we're are not defining the limits of what is acceptable..
from complete insolence toward the prophet and Islam,from framing innocent people, to abuse of civilians in foreign nations, kowtowing to them in our homelands, letting them strip us of our money and history while apologizing for crimes we didn't commit, and trying to coax them by actually accepting the bull**** they publish about us and apologizing for it..

why do we accommodate these [people] left and right trying to improve an image about us which they have already created in their head and they are here for no other purpose than to convince us of their beliefs...

Do you really want to be friends with these people? you want to extend da3wa to them? The thought of them burning in hell for all eternity is about the only sobering thing that keeps me going as I am filled with rage!

Sister, I read Muslims on Muslimmatters.org also arguing that Denmark must not be boycotted ..... some pathetic "enlightened" Western Muslims.

And that scanner is scary ....

[جوري]

Denmark must be boycotted along with the rest of them, it is actually the very least we can do. Not only are we not aiding out brothers and sisters who are suffering every where, we are actually silent as if approving, and now you want us to endorse it financially.. I am sorry but any thinking, discerning Muslims, should know that the least he/she can do is make a stand in any form possible, and this form has proven to hurt them insha'Allah!

they want to feel us up this is where its going to end up.....few weeks later we will here of a Burundian bomber who placed a bomb inside his posterior and to make security better all travelers will be subjugated to a ''feel up'' by the perverted officers

Travellers using London’s Heathrow airport will have to undergo checks by full-body scanners as soon as practicable, BAA, the airports operator, disclosed on Sunday.

The move came after Gordon Brown, prime minister, committed Britain to using the controversial technology, saying airports had to “go further” on security measures following the failed Christmas day terror attack on a transatlantic passenger jet.

[CosmicPathos]

mind you, the "elite" will not be subject to these rules as one regulatory document said.

[Alpha Dude]

To be honest, all this bodes very bad for muslims in western countries. There is so much religious profiling going on already and it is just going to get worse. If there's any new major 'terrorist attack', the non-muslim civilians are going to get more and more suspicious of us and our welcome will be worn thin.

Expect violence and discrimination against muslims to rise exponentially. Sad, but that's the way I see it happening in future.

[جوري]

'elite' = non-Muslims!

[Somaiyah]

Salam,
I simply believe it's horrible. And as far as I can avoid going to these airports I won't go. But so far I have never flied an airplane but inshallah one day I probably will have to. But alhamdulillah not many airports have this yet and inshallah we will all be able to avoid this. The stupid thing with the ones who are positive with this is that it's not about who can see you but that they can see you.

[Cabdullahi]

they know Muslims cover up and they know we travel back to the mother land often...they will be rubbing their hands to prospect of exploiting us :raging:

[cat eyes]

its not like there doing it on purpose its there job. they have to check everybody not just muslims.

[Cabdullahi]

they who?....this is a mass abu ghraib like exploitation and nobody is exempt from it, bums and bosoms is what we are talking about here so let them watch and enjoy ''its there job''

[Donia]

I had no clue that full body scanners even existed.

Wow. I really don't think it's necessary in my humble opinion.

[جوري]

This is all in light of the latest alleged botched bombing.. so yes, very much targeting and profiling Muslims!

[Grofica]

i dont know i travel all the time and other then london heathrow its really not that bad. (sorry dont mean nothing bad about london but the airport staff sucks) but its like that x-ray machine shows anything. it just shows a gray outline. granted not what i want either but the face is the same. i sort of think it would be nice then i dont have to wait for 900 people to take off their belt and shoes and hat and watch and blah blah blah because they cant do it while they wait in line. sorry that irks me. everything should be done by the time people get to the machines. thats why we have carry on.

[جوري]

They are not yet implemented but they will be, x rays show your bones and fat shadows and calcified areas, this will actually show your private anatomy!
and it will be in conjunction with the shoe taking off and watches etc..

so it won't be less of a hassle but more with humiliation!

I think you are not youselves today :).

These scanners though we may think are useless , these have been brought into use because of some idiots who tried to blow up planes.We are paying the price for some idiots decision :|. Anyway , Although i think there will be pervs everywhere lets just hope we wont have to go through this

[Dagless]

You can see example images on google. They aren't colour and you can only make out outlines. It might be amusing for the guy watching the first few times but there's only so much amusement to be derived from blue outlines; it'll be boring for them after the first 10 or so people.

If its a necessity in order to stop planes getting blown up then you have to just accept it. The pictures are not kept and are not taken in a sexual context. As for child porn... well how can it be child porn if there is no porn? So kids playing naked on the beach is ok but whoa don't you dare take a blue-ish outline of their bodies for a few seconds to potentially save a plane full of people :s

I would have thought a strip search or pat down was more intrusive. At least this way nobody has their hands all over you... or "the glove".

[Samiun]

:sl: Gossamer, wow your post counts are sky high in just an instant. I remember when entering this forum after a few days I saw someone congratulate you for your 10000 posts, now it has reach to 10000++ in just a few months......

Back on topic, I don't really mind this body scanners. I mean how could they be one when the person who is checking up on you is a male/female?As far as I'm concern, the airport always "checks" people for drugs/knife/etc but they usually do it by a male/female basis. So I don't think this is a pretty bad idea unless the person who's checking on you are in love with their own gender

i heard you can choose to never have them used on you.

[Vito]

Even if we fly naked, we still wouldn't be 100% safe from attacks. So I think it is a waste and I think it is only going to cause more problems for airlines because people have already stated they won't fly if they have to go through this.

[Vito]

i heard you can choose to never have them used on you.

Why bother to spend the money to implement it in the first place then? If they suspected someone to have something on them, they would usually pull them to the side and do a thorough search anyways. :hmm:

I know sister.. it is what I mean by not just kowtowing to injustice but approving of it.. I am so fearful of the day we have to account for all of this, the real insult to injury is how we justify it to ourselves so we can feel or cope better!

There are things that as individuals can do even though it might seem trifle.. as stated for instance boycotting danish products really proved fatal to their economy, we can try with charity and of course our prayers which at times is all we seem to possess!

Maybe it depends on your threshold for such things. With the media constantly bombarding images which are close to nude on adverts etc. I don't find an outline of a body in one colour all that concerning. It doesn't even make me look twice. That maybe a side effect for most people living in the west :(

Yes, I read the child porn thing in the guardian too before I posted my comment. I only meant that its taken a bit far because I would judge an airport scan like a biology textbook or journal. The intention is to gain knowledge; not sexual stimulus.

[جوري]

except there is no knowledge to be gained from subjecting your 70 year old grandmother or grandfather to full frontal and back anatomy with someone with a two week certificate if at all!

It isn't a matter of nudity on TV or in a clinical setting, rather individual harassment and singularly of Muslims!

Depends if they want to blow up a plane or not! Until its widespread you can probably just ask for a traditional patdown.
Its not just for Muslims though, its for all passengers.

[Nσσя'υℓ Jαииαн]

^^ They have a list of countries they specifically wish to use this for and they're all Muslim countries. That's at least what I heard. Outlining the shape of the body is just as BAD. Think of your fellow Muslim sisters who have to go through it. The shape of their bodies being seen, shape of their chest and other areas? How is that not of concern??

[Cabdullahi]

I think were desensitized to an extent and that's why some are not concerned but as a Muslim we all should reject these scanners because it violates our awrah

i 100% agree. i was going through the airport once and had the FEMALE gaurd doing the pat down grab me in inappropriate ways. i would much rather show a blue blob on the screen then get felt up by some freak at the airport and what can you say to them not a dang thing because they cacn hold you up and make you miss your plane if you try to report them.

but they are going to do with these just like they do the xray machines not every jack jill and harry will be able to see them walking by it will be up aginst a wall for some privacy and its not showing DETAILS... just shadows. modesty is a great thing but so is being alive and safe.

one... there is no way you can she her whatever whatever. i have seen the pics on google and they arent some nasty pictures it looks about as sexy as a snow man or woman.... and they are not supposed to have memory and if the airports show a little descretion with what we have in our bags then i am sure they will do the same with this and place it so the whole world is not viewing. i mean some people are acting like its going to be televised on football size screen.

personally... whatever they can do to make flying safer and faster and quicker through the airports rock on... make me safe. i want to make it to where ever i am going.

Yea you can SEE it. Why da heck do u think we're meant to wear loose clothing? I've seen the pictures on google. In the one picture of an old woman, you can see the shape of her breast, her private part and her rear! I didnt wna blunt but now I think I have too. I'm not forsaking my modesty for the safety of my life. It's just the same as when you don't compromise your religion for the safety of your life. Same with modesty, it's part of Islam.

You don't like it, thats your perogative, but i sure as hell wouldn't like some freako behind the screen looking at me like that and knowing he can see the shape of all my parts.

i never said you couldnt see the shape of the breast and tush. but its a shadow and the face isnt identifyable either. im saying its just different shades of blue. its like a giant blue blob. and its better then someone grabbing at private bits and peices.

this isnt much different then getting a scan from the doctors office

and there are still plenty of ways to travel that dont use the screening. car, boat, train, horse, biking, walking...

(not trying to be rude with the horse and walking comment just a lot of people still use horses where i was born.)

but it is not against your will. buying an airplain ticket is confirming you will agree to any BS they deside to put you through or you cant fly. there are 1 million different ways to travel and people have the freedom to choose which they prefer. life is all about choises.

Yes let me book my trip to Makkah from now, by the time I bike or boat there I should make it in time by next pilgrimage!

:w:

[Grofica]

you allow a doctor to examine you medically so he can use whatever scan to best diagnose the illness...the islamically valid excuse you have here is ''medical reasons''...so what excuse do you have if you want to travel to spain for a nice holiday offering the them to peep at your hardware

How can you guarantee that the person who's doing the peeping will be a female?

and plenty of people let cosmetic doctors look at them and its not for medical reasons. its pure vanity... (and i dont mean only in western countries.)

there may not be an islamically valid excuse but the whole point of covering was to be modest i dont believe modesty is comprimized by a 2 second look at blue on a screen the size of a GPS system... i hardley doubt thats enough to make someone go PeeWee Herman in the airport.

The whole point is that it is a violation a public ravishment really meant to force Muslims to do exactly what they don't want to do (expose themselves even if it be for two seconds). It doesn't matter who likes sex for hire, or who does a butt lift every two years or gets 750cc implants or what the Grecian section at the met shows. It is about the individual desire and it is against the will, because when one desires to travel one likes to keep their civil liberties and rights and if they are forcing you to do something you don't want to do or find some other mode of travel for some concocted reasons. Frankly I believe half of the crap they frame and pin on Muslims is done by them. on CNN this alleged bomber didn't even have a passport, so how did he get on unless someone wanted him to get on for a very specific purpose?

Safety sounds like a good excuse. It may even save lives (it probably won't stop the really determined but there are plenty of amateurs out there who might think twice).
Its a personal decision at the end of the day.

What's ur point ??? Why should men will see women's body like this even for 1 second ? In the name of security , what will they do next ? Not virtually , but practically they will force people to be naked in front of all. :omg:

ok i will agree with the part about half the stuff they do. but i honestly dont believe its against muslims. before it was russia and it was china and it was vietnam and it was north korea... its all about someone having something "big brother wants" and the media feeds the people into hysteria...

but lets face it this really isnt any different, it has been pretty much the same for a long time those guards do whatever they want to anyway. people CHOOSE to fly people must conform to whatever dumb idea they have next. Im not nessarrily pro-blue screen people but i am pro-me making it to where i am going.

Assalaamu alaykum wa rahmatullaahi wa barakaatuhu,

Let me just add one thing for our muslimahs - may Allaah assist you all as time and time again the kuffaar are trying to make you show your zeenah to the masses, to be like their women who show not an ounce of hayaa hence no need for them to even be scanned! May Allaah cover you with the modesty of hijaab and niqaab and make you among the precious preserved pearls of Allaah both in this life and in the hereafter. Ameen.

Now more than ever, we see that we Muslims need to make a stance to stand up against those crazed sexually perverted legislators that call upon stripping the honour of our awrah for the sake of some self inflicted security control issues they themselves could easily have plotted! May Allaah disperse their plans like Qaaroon and Abrahah, may the earth eat up their rotten bodies and rotten ideas ameen ya Rabb.

It is, like the social cohesion issue, like the ongoing onslaught against the hijaab, abaya and niqaab, a time for sisters to remain firm upon their deen and the sunnatil ummahaatul mu'mineen. We need to remain steadfast upon the beautiful advice given by Allaah, Lord of the worlds to both our brothers and our sisters. Remain in hijaab, remain in niqaab, remain guarded from leeches wanting to stare at the forbidden beauty Islam has protected. Remain respectable to Allaah and Allaah will preserve your honour.

And oh you Sisters that take this lightly, guard your chastity and pray that Allaah make you among the dwellers of Al-Firdaws, for Allaahs messenger sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam advised us that the woman who reveals her body shape shall not even smell the fragrance of Jannah though its fragrance reaches far distances. Remember the shar'i rulings as regarding your dress, your look, your actions and fear Allaah wheresoever you are. The woman who reveals a hair to one forbidden to see it, shall be hung from that string of hair, the one who shapes the eyebrows is cursed, the one who is dressed but naked is rebuked and only the righteous woman who fears Allaah and knows that it incurs the wrath of Allaah is on the correct Path!

I say as, our mother A'isha radhiallahu anha said. May Allaah bless the women, when Allaah revealed the aayah for covering they all came out looking like black crows. Ameen.

instead of taking such a negitive stance against the machine why not take a negitive stance against WHY these devises were implemented. if people spent more time protesting the men who do bad things and say they are in the name of god (regardless of relgion) then we would not have to impliment all these procautions.

all this energy is being spent protesting the wrong issue(s). stop the wrong-doers. instead of silence show the world a voice of out-raged muslims. not at the extra steps that have to be taken for safety but at those who commit wrongs in the name of god. the masses are scared not only at the wrong-doers but at the silence of our mass.

[BlackMamba]

I vote for safety over privacy. If the scanners keep us safe then use them.

And do you think that they have a pretty good excuse to use racial profiling at the airport? Most if not all recent airplane terrorist attacks have been carried out by "Muslims."

[Nσσя'υℓ Jαииαн]

No thanks, I dont wana be scarred with the thought that someone just got a peep at me.

Maybe I'm wrong, but I don't see anything wondrous about letting someone see me that way, for the safety of my life. If I die, at least I'll die with my modesty still intact...

SubhaanAllaah sis, why the ultra double negative bladed response?

Its amazing to see you would compromise any sense of your awrah and your deen with regards to the current so called "security threat" but to be honest you've pulled the trigger, russian roulette style on yourself. The problem is there is extremism amongst Muslims. By simply creating yet another issue for Muslims, removal of privacy, we are not tackling terrorism, we are simply breeding it. The main cause for such problems with Muslims is because of American Appartheid policies that support Israel against Palestine, UK against Afghans, US against Iraaqis. Stripping our women will only prove ever more that US is against Islamic principles! But where is your voice there? Are you speaking out against that too or just against your fellow Muslims who are disgusted with the attempts made to publicise their women? Can you not even say ameen to a dua which is calling upon Allaah to restore shariah? Do you feel that Islamic code of dress is not the greatest emancipation of the female population? I certainly do and there are many millions of Muslims who wont shy from proclaiming this.

If you consider the removal of shari'ah to be negative, then go ahead strip yourself for the Non-Muslim, what if next week the US claims that the Qur'an is the reason behind these attacks and reading it is a criminal offence, will you throw it away? Praying is something seen as extreme so leave it? Being Muslim is the cause so leave it? Sheltering legislation of this nature will only wash down any understanding of the real problem: the US GOVT. (Currently no.1 terrorist to date! Please refer to Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan, Palestine for further information)

We simply will not and shall not ever stand side by side with a policy that contravenes our right to privacy, constantly undermines our ummah and consistently is at war with innocents while trying to catch the supposedly guilty al-Qaeda forces. A government, highly questioned at all levels, to the legitimacy of its claims on 9/11, a government always blaming rogue agents for plots of innocent killings but then throws bombs on women and children, claims WMD's but takes the lives of millions for black oil. Does this remind you of a just nation or one of the biggest untried war criminals in existence.

I say again. To all my sisters, DO NOT let the kuffaar strip you, DO NOT disobey Allaah almighty for the sake of men and women who are clearly opposed to what you believe in. Remember the woman, who the Jew removed her garment and she became exposed, she cried "Yaa Mu'tasim" and when Mu'tasim heard, he said 100,000 troops to exact the revenge for the oppression done against her. Fear not the disbelievers but fear Allaah and surely Allaah is with the righteous. Whatever he has written for is better if we are but patient. Do not let apologetic Muslims confuse you about your duty to Allaah and remain steadfast upon al-Qawl as-Sadeed.

I make another dua for you sister as well as all the ummah, that Allaah makes you among the upright ones that call for truth, ones that are haafidh upon their chastity and those who are in the highest levels of Jannah ameen.

"Never will the Jews nor the Christians be pleased with you (O Muhammad Peace be upon him ) till you follow their religion. Say: "Verily, the Guidance of Allâh that is the (only) Guidance. And if you were to follow their desires after what you have received of Knowledge, then you would have against Allâh neither any Walî (protector or guardian) nor any helper. " Surah al-Baqarah: 120)

"It is not for a believing man or a believing woman, when Allaah and His Messenger have decided a matter, that they should [thereafter] have any choice about their affair. And whoever disobeys Allaah and His Messenger has certainly strayed into clear error." (Surah al-Ahzaab: 36)

SubhaanAllaah sis, why the ultra double negative bladed response?

its not an ultra double negative bladed response. everyone is complaining about the rain and wont open the umbrella to be dry. what i am saying is if you want NOT to go through the machine and you want NOT to be looked at in a negotive connotation then stop being silent about the people who are wrong for doing what their doing.

my family is of mexican decent, you dont think i get racial profiled for that too?!?!?! i get it everywhere. oulled over for brown while driving, followed in stores because they dont believe mexicans can pay for things, people think i jumped the boarder, people think i speak spanish what like every person who has hispanic blood just comes out speaking spanish or something. except i dont know what it is people everywhere think i am from somehwere close i have been called lebineese (spelling?) italian, bosnian, mexican, portarican, spanish, emeratie, iraqi, you name it i have been called it.

for a million different things. a million bad things happen to a million different people but instead of complaining about the bad thing people bond together and ferret out the wrong doers...

Stripping our women will only prove ever more that US is against Islamic principles!

Islamic principles and Christian princibles are not really that different... but no one knows that because no one hears what islam is about. when i read the koran i found out how wonderful it was but do you expect everyone is going to be so curious?

But where is your voice there?

Im not outraged. its not a perfect system but they are trying their best.

Do you feel that Islamic code of dress is not the greatest emancipation of the female population? I certainly do and there are many millions of Muslims who wont shy from proclaiming this.

I am not saying there is anything wrong with it. and am not flashing or showy with my clothes but i do wear jeans.

If you consider the removal of shari'ah to be negative, then go ahead strip yourself for the Non-Muslim

so because i am in agreement to be as safe as possibe in a crazy world and crazy time i am basically a heratic is what your saying? a blue non-identifiable picture is not striping for the masses. its a simple safety procaussion. should there be anarchy?

what if next week the US claims that the Qur'an is the reason behind these attacks and reading it is a criminal offence, will you throw it away?

its always the music that does it not the books.

Praying is something seen as extreme so leave it?

christains pray. you think this is an assult on you but its not.

I make another dua for you sister as well as all the ummah, that Allaah makes you among the upright ones that call for truth, ones that are haafidh upon their chastity and those who are in the highest levels of Jannah ameen.

and Allah also sees whats in our hearts.

[PersiaBeFree]

From the article Gossamer skye linked:

"As the passenger stands in the scanner, the naked image of the passenger is transmitted to a sole, remote operator who is stationed in another part of the airport and will not see the face of the person inside the scanning machine.

The operator will then mark any objects present on the passenger and send a schematic diagram of the person's profile to the officers operating the scanner for further examination"

I think it would also be possible to have two remote operators, one male and one female and a system of sending images to the correct one based on gender. That should rule out most of the concerns, no?

[Dagless]

SubhaanAllaah sis, why the ultra double negative bladed response?

Its amazing to see you would compromise any sense of your awrah and your deen with regards to the current so called "security threat" but to be honest you've pulled the trigger, russian roulette style on yourself.

How exactly is she compromising her deen? Its not a so called "security threat", there are no inverted comma's about it, haven't you noticed that there have been quite a few attempts on aircraft over the last few months?
One person searching for a bomb or a weapon on an almost anonymous airport scanner does not constitute a removal of privacy.
You are saying protect your awra but don't worry about bombs. Does your life come first or awra?

The main cause for such problems with Muslims is because of American Appartheid policies that support Israel against Palestine, UK against Afghans, US against Iraaqis.

This is true but doesn't change the current situation. Shall we put our lives on hold until there are no threats anywhere?

Stripping our women will only prove ever more that US is against Islamic principles! But where is your voice there? Are you speaking out against that too or just against your fellow Muslims who are disgusted with the attempts made to publicise their women? Can you not even say ameen to a dua which is calling upon Allaah to restore shariah? Do you feel that Islamic code of dress is not the greatest emancipation of the female population? I certainly do and there are many millions of Muslims who wont shy from proclaiming this.

This is overkill in the extreme. Look at the words you're using "stripping your women", "attempts to publicise their women". Obviously you're thinking of the airport scanner which forcefully restrains the woman, takes a full colour hd picture, and then uploads it to the Internet.

If you consider the removal of shari'ah to be negative, then go ahead strip yourself for the Non-Muslim, what if next week the US claims that the Qur'an is the reason behind these attacks and reading it is a criminal offence, will you throw it away? Praying is something seen as extreme so leave it? Being Muslim is the cause so leave it?

We are given the intellect to work out which claims are correct (have proof), and which are incorrect (have no proof).

People trying to smuggle bombs on board aircraft - Lots of evidence, it happens in all countries, and many have been successful. Scanning a person seems a reasonable means by which to detect for such material. If you have a better method then please share!

The Quran being the reason behind the attacks - No evidence.

See the difference?

We simply will not and shall not ever stand side by side with a policy that contravenes our right to privacy, constantly undermines our ummah and consistently is at war with innocents while trying to catch the supposedly guilty al-Qaeda forces. A government, highly questioned at all levels, to the legitimacy of its claims on 9/11, a government always blaming rogue agents for plots of innocent killings but then throws bombs on women and children, claims WMD's but takes the lives of millions for black oil.

When there is threat of death we are allowed to eat pork and delay salah if that will lower chance of the threat.

Am I losing haya in the process of eating pork or delaying salah? No.
This is stated within Islam, not giving up your haya for your life...

I'm not gunna go through life knowing someone got a peep at me...and this is my personal opinion. That's all.

As for salah, I'll choose Shahada whilst praying than delay my salah. At the end of the day, it's Allah who will Protect me...we don't die unless He Wills that. So hell, I'm not worried in the least bit.

[Billal-A]

Assalaamu 'alaykum wa rahmatullaahi wa barakaatuhu,

I thought that maybe our sisters would have some sort of brainstorm over the ideals that are being pushed after my response but it seems like yet again we have missed the point. The point isnt personal to start with, I am not assuming that Grofica, you are in any way a bad person or someone against hijaab or of the sort nor do I say that you are someone washing their principles, but what I am re-asserting is that there are things that will always exist in our society because of actions the US, UK, Israel is responsible for. If your stating that it is an "everyone complains about the rain and wont open the umbrella to dry" issue then even more so in your case.

The reason I say this is because as I have mentioned earlier, the problem is foreign policy, Muslims are not attacking planes and civilian posts because they just simply want to remove non-Muslims from the earth but because they hate the US govt and what it represents. They hate the fact that the US has orphaned Iraq, stole its assets and claimed to seek WMD's from a man now six feet under with no recovery of these weapons. Without a doubt the biggest lie of this decade-past is the claim that Saddaam had WMD's and could set them off in 45 minutes, this was the whole basis for the war in Iraq! Why cant we Muslims be outspoken for the many innocents who have been killed unjustly in this case? Why are people who march against the US oppressors labelled fanatics or extremist Muslims?

The answer is simple, ever since 9/11, the Muslims have split into two factions; one that tries to be apologetic and appeasing to the Non-Muslims, condemns all acts of Jihaad as "violent extremism" and is "allied with the west against the scourge of terrorism" but at the same time does not speak up against the evil atrocities the US and Israel are responsible for; the other sticking to what is in the Book and the Sunnah and not allowing any sense of allegiance with kuffaar especially ones with a track record like the US. One man does a crime, the entire populus has to be stripped? There is no logic behind this. Systematically over time the West has been deconstructing all of its democratic values but claims to be a model of democracy. Freedom of speech, freedom of religion, right to privacy, right to fair trial, all seem clouded and non-existent. I mean, sister please, we cant align with a government that places our people into orange jumpsuits and makes them bow in cages in Cuba to avoid International law breaches. They dont give trials, they torture, they force confessions how much more do they need to do before we make a real stance against that!?

Unfortunately for us, all we have to see is our fellow Muslims arguing with one another over this issue, when the blood of our ummah is more honourable than all of this! There is no disobedience to Allaah for the sake of creation and we should not allow legislation like this which is unislamic, once it is introduced and we are forced, then matters take a different direction but for now we speak against this infringement upon our rights! We fight against falsehood in all its paths, be it extremism, killing of innocents, unlawful acts in the Name of Islam, and this issue also. We cannot wash down any of our principles for the sake of a threat that is too untangible to ever detect. The worrying thing is, where do we go from here? Should we have cameras in our homes which are viewed by the government too? That would be a safety precaution! Should we remove ayahs about Jihaad? That would be a safety precaution! The list is endless.

I pray yet again, that Allaah makes us like Ibraaheem alayhis salaam, who did not remove his tawheed to please his community, to be like Nuh alayhis salaam, who gave up his son to the evil his son was upon for opposing Allaah, we be like Moosa alayhis salaam against the Fir'awns of our era, and that we are among those who sacrifice everything they have for the Sake of Allaah's pleasure ameen.

"Do you think that you will be left [as you are] while Allaah has not yet made evident those among you who strive [for His cause] and do not take other than Allaah, His Messenger and the believers as intimates? And Allaah is Acquainted with what you do." (Surah at-Tawbah:16)

"Say, [O Muhammad], "If your fathers, your sons, your brothers, your wives, your relatives, wealth which you have obtained commerce wherein you fear decline, and dwellings with which you are pleased are more beloved to you than Allaah and His
Messenger and jihaad [i.e., striving] in His cause, then wait until Allaah executes His command. And Allaah does not guide the defiantly disobedient people." (Surah at-Tawbah: 24)

[Billal-A]

[/QUOTE]It might be worth finding a scholars opinion since a lot of strong feeings flying around now :p[/QUOTE]

"I know that haraam things may be permissible if it becomes necessary to do them. Are there conditions governing this ruling so that it may be applied correctly?."

Praise be to Allaah.

Among the basic principles of Islamic sharee’ah, on which the scholars are agreed, is that cases of necessity make forbidden things permissible.

There is a great deal of evidence to support this principle in the Holy Qur'aan and the Prophet's Sunnah, for example, the verses in which Allah says (interpretation of the meaning):

“Forbidden to you (for food) are: Al‑Maitah (the dead animals — cattle — beast not slaughtered), blood, the flesh of swine, and that on which Allaah’s Name has not been mentioned while slaughtering (that which has been slaughtered as a sacrifice for others than Allaah, or has been slaughtered for idols) and that which has been killed by strangling, or by a violent blow, or by a headlong fall, or by the goring of horns — and that which has been (partly) eaten by a wild animal — unless you are able to slaughter it (before its death) ‑ and that which is sacrificed (slaughtered) on An‑Nusub (stone‑altars). (Forbidden) also is to use arrows seeking luck or decision; (all) that is Fisqun (disobedience of Allaah and sin). This day, those who disbelieved have given up all hope of your religion; so fear them not, but fear Me. This day, I have perfected your religion for you, completed My Favour upon you, and have chosen for you Islam as your religion. But as for him who is forced by severe hunger, with no inclination to sin (such can eat these above mentioned meats), then surely, Allaah is Oft‑Forgiving, Most Merciful”

[al-Maa’idah 5:3]

“And why should you not eat of that (meat) on which Allaah’s Name has been pronounced (at the time of slaughtering the animal), while He has explained to you in detail what is forbidden to you, except under compulsion of necessity?”

[al-An’am 6:119]

Examples of this principle include the following:

1. Eating dead meat for one who cannot find anything else and fears that he will die of hunger.

2. Speaking words of kufr when subjected to torture and force.

3. Warding off an aggressor even if that leads to killing him.

See: al-Ashya’ wa’l-Nazaa’ir by Ibn Nujaym, p. 85

Necessity means cases in which a person will be harmed if he does not take the haraam option, in which the harm will effect the five essentials which are: religion, life, honour, reason and wealth.

With regard to the conditions of a haraam thing becoming permissible in the case of necessity, Shaykh Muhammad ibn ‘Uthaymeen (may Allah have mercy on him) mentioned two conditions for that and he explained them in abundant detail with examples, as well as mentioning some objections and the response to them. Hence we will limit ourselves to quoting his words. He (may Allah have mercy on him) said:

This principle is one of the basic fiqhi principles which are indicated by sharee’ah: Everything that is forbidden becomes permissible in the case of necessity.

So what is forbidden becomes permissible in the case of necessity, but there are two conditions.

The first condition:

We should be compelled to do this specific haraam thing, meaning that we cannot find anything with which to meet that necessity except this haraam thing. If we can find something else, then it does not become permissible, even though it could meet our necessity.

The second condition:

The necessity should be met by that haraam thing; if that is not the case, then it remains haraam. If we are not certain whether it will meet the necessity or not, then it also remains haraam. That is because doing something haraam is definitely wrong and meeting necessity by means of it is something concerning which there is doubt, so we should not transgress by doing that which is definitely haraam for the sake of something concerning which there is doubt.

Hence the ruling varies concerning a starving man who cannot find anything but dead meat. In this case we say, Eat the dead meat. If he says that this is committing a haraam action, we say that it has become permissible because of necessity, because you have nothing else to eat apart from this and because if you eat it you will meet that necessity.

It was said to a man: If you drink alcohol, you will be cured of sickness. In this case we say: It is not permissible for you to drink alcohol even if you are told that it will heal you from sickness. Why is that?

Firstly, because there is no certainty that he will be healed by it; he may drink it and not be healed of sickness. We see many sick people taking beneficial medicines that they do not benefit from.

Secondly, the sick person may recover without any treatment, by putting his trust in Allah and praying to Him, and by means of people’s prayer (du’aa’) for him and so on. This is from the point of view of reason.

From the point of view of evidence, it is narrated in a hadeeth from the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) that he said: “Allaah does not put your healing in that which He has forbidden to you.” The rationale behind this hadeeth is clear, because Allah only forbade it to us because it is harmful to us, so how can that which is haraam be a healing and a remedy?

Hence it is haraam to use haraam things as treatment, as the scholars have stated, and it cannot be said that this is a case of necessity, as some people think.

If someone were to say that a person is choking and he has nothing except a cup of wine, so is it permissible for him to drink this cup to stop him choking?

The answer is yes, because the two conditions are met in this case. He is compelled to use this exact thing and we are certain that the necessity will be met by it, so we would say: Drink the wine. But once the choking has stopped, he should stop drinking.

If someone were to say that a man found some meat that had been slaughtered in the halaal manner and some meat from an animal that had died a natural death, can he eat the dead meat because he is forced to do so by necessity?

The answer is that he cannot do that, because the necessity can be met by something else, so it is not permissible because the first condition is not met.

If a person were to say, I am thirsty and I have nothing but a cup of wine; can I drink it?

The answer is no, as the scholars said, because this is not a case of necessity; rather it will only make him more thirsty, so there is no benefit in transgressing and doing something haraam, because necessity will not be warded off by it and the second condition is not fulfilled.

If a person were to say: If a sick person has no choice but to drink blood as a remedy, is it permissible for him to do that? The answer is that it is not permissible for him to do that, because the two conditions are not met. End quote.

What if there is no female operators at that time ? Flight won't wait for female passengers ; so they will be forced to go through the process operated by men. Also not even women should watch other naked women .

ok but we have already seen the list of places they are putting them and i was told today that they have a few in the states already too... EVERY airport has female security gaurds and especially in the middle eastern countries because men can not inspect women. its not a matter of IF there will be women its just a matter of switching the women already there to a new duty

Tamim al-Dari in the prophets time met dajjal and he was on an island with another being called jassassa in a monastery

al jassassa is spy in arabic

the hadith :

''They landed on the island, and were met by
a beast who was so hairy that they could not tell its front from its back.
They said, "Woe to you! What are you?" It said, "I am al-Jassasah." They
said, "What is al-Jassasah?" It said, "O people, go to this man in the
monastery, for he is very eager to know about you." Tamim said that when
it named a person to us, we were afraid lest it be a devil''

@ some point they'll just start implanting chips in people and justify it by the usual scare tactics!

[MSalman]

a friend of my a very respectful elderly Syrian man and his wife were asked to remove the diaper from their granddaughter in the airport because elderly Muslims love to wrap explosives in children diapers...

you know what the problem is, we're are not defining the limits of what is acceptable..
from complete insolence toward the prophet and Islam,from framing innocent people, to abuse of civilians in foreign nations, kowtowing to them in our homelands, letting them strip us of our money and history while apologizing for crimes we didn't commit, and trying to coax them by actually accepting the bull**** they publish about us and apologizing for it..

what ****s they are (I am so angry and livid today) like that piece of **** atheist who is trying to convince us that boycotting a poor little country like Denmark is really not the right way to go about it..

why do we accommodate these ****s left and right trying to improve an image about us which they have already created in their head and they are here for no other purpose than to convince us of their beliefs...

Do you really want to be friends with these people? you want to extend da3wa to them? The thought of them burning in hell for all eternity is about the only sobering thing that keeps me going as I am filled with rage!

:sl:

sister, i understand your rage - the problem is that we have build defeatist mindset with our defensive and apologetic approach. We are too much concerned about what people think about us and improving our image to fit in. We shouldn't give d@mn about kuffaar think about us and our religion. We know that they will continue to hate us and not accept us until we give up our beliefs.

[AlHoda]

:sl:

I just saw the body scanners on google, and ..May Allah protect all Muslims, it is just disgusting and provoking , I am just out of words. :raging:

:wa:

[Dagless]

The reason I say this is because as I have mentioned earlier, the problem is foreign policy, Muslims are not attacking planes and civilian posts because they just simply want to remove non-Muslims from the earth but because they hate the US govt and what it represents. They hate the fact that the US has orphaned Iraq, stole its assets and claimed to seek WMD's from a man now six feet under with no recovery of these weapons. Without a doubt the biggest lie of this decade-past is the claim that Saddaam had WMD's and could set them off in 45 minutes, this was the whole basis for the war in Iraq! Why cant we Muslims be outspoken for the many innocents who have been killed unjustly in this case? Why are people who march against the US oppressors labelled fanatics or extremist Muslims?

Nobody is disagreeing with you. The US has had many unjust wars. However, we are discussing whether airport scanners are a valid answer to the bomb threat. The overall solution is obviously for the US stop supporting terror in the world, but if you want to wait until that happens you'll be waiting a long time.

Unfortunately for us, all we have to see is our fellow Muslims arguing with one another over this issue, when the blood of our ummah is more honourable than all of this! There is no disobedience to Allaah for the sake of creation and we should not allow legislation like this which is unislamic, once it is introduced and we are forced, then matters take a different direction but for now we speak against this infringement upon our rights!

If the blood of our ummah is so important why doesn't the bomber say to himself "oh no I can't do this now, there are Muslim families on this plane... maybe I should ask them if they are willing to sacrifice themselves and their children". Having a decision like that made on your behalf is a bigger infringment on your rights.

The worrying thing is, where do we go from here? Should we have cameras in our homes which are viewed by the government too? That would be a safety precaution! Should we remove ayahs about Jihaad? That would be a safety precaution! The list is endless.

Once again you confuse the issue. Camera's in our homes would be unacceptable because they are OUR homes. The airline is a service, it is not YOUR airline, the airport is not YOUR airport. They are owned by others and by using them you have to agree to THEIR terms and conditions.

One question -

Lets say you own a Muslim airline and there are attempts being made to blow up your planes by an unknown group.
You have been given the solution of an airport scanner. These will not cause passengers any delay or inconvenience by having them remove clothes. They may not stop all the attempts but lets say 15% of threats are stopped.

Would you accept this solution? Bearing in mind that 15% would equate to something like 500 lives saved per year.

It's easy to keep saying no, but what other solution would you suggest?

...Blame the terrorists for trying to blow up passenger jets. The more they try to attack us, the more action our government will take to prevent it from occuring again even if it means stripping you completely to make sure that you carry nothing. In the good old days prior to 9/11 the airport security was relaxed, laid back and an attack on an airline was unthinkable. The "muslim extremists" are making it tougher for other muslims in the West.

the good ole days prior 9-11? you imperial terrorist, history didnt start on 9-11, in the 'good ole' days you had already attacked iraq, supported israel with their money and weapons used to occupy Muslim land in Palestine, Lebanon, Egypt, and Syria, not to mention the thousands of civillians they killed with your blessing. you have been bombing and killing Muslims far before 9-11 ever came into being, so dont bring up 9-11 as if history began on this day, but then again, you are an imperial terrorist, and its in your blood to not care about your crimes and victims, you only take note and start opening your mouth when the shoe is on the other foot.

[alcurad]

if the security officials had done their job correctly then the attempt would have been foiled without need of scanners, and anyway, security measures nowadays are so tight in the first place that any would be bomber can only resort to devices that don't really cause much harm and that are clearly not enough to blow up airplanes, notice how the passengers were the ones who subdued the last attempt, and that it wasn't going to work anyway., which leads to the question of how marginal the benefit would be from the scanners as opposed to officials actually doing their job correctly?

the scanners themselves pose no problem if certain safeguards were in place, such as blurring the faces for example, and the images being deleted right away after being checked plus the operator being in a separate room so he wouldn't be able to see who was being scanned etc. but the point is, they're not going to be that effective against current threats to the extent that they're toted to be.

hence they'd be a huge waste of money, a great cause of discomfort for many people as well as have a potentially negative impact on security by imparting confidence in the safety of airplanes and so on but not actually addressing the threat more meaningfully.

in fact, there's speculation on whether the Christmas attack perpetrator would been detected at all using the scanners ...

Its like you suggesting speed camera's to stop speeding. They are already in place, but if a person removes his number plate he can get around them.
What you suggested is already in place. The passenger just found a way to get around this measure.

Nobody is trying you and we are not "having" anything. As a brother mentioned before; nothing is meant personally. This is a civilized topic with the hope of reaching a common solution :p

Airport Security: Is Israel the Answer?

Well, Alex, there's one obvious solution to the rampant dysfunction you so colorfully describe in that hilarious recap of your recent journey from India back to the United States. And I can sum it up in one word: Israel.

Over the past week or so, much ink has been spilled over the pros and cons of airport security techniques as diverse as body scanners (child porn?), passenger profiling (racist or just plain smart?) and the prohibition on bathroom breaks during the last hour of the flight (cruel and unusual punishment?). Surprisingly, what people aren't talking so much about are the methods employed by the country that pioneered and perfected aviation security, Israel. Get the new
PD toolbar!
Israel has lived with terrorist threats since its inception as a nation-state. A fascinating article in The Toronto Star last week provided a detailed explanation of the multi-tiered, incredibly effective and -- by all accounts -- remarkably efficient system that the Israelis have devised to both detect and manage security threats at Tel Aviv's Ben Gurion Airport. Despite facing dozens of potential threats each day, that airport's security has not been breached since 2002, when a passenger mistakenly carried a handgun onto a flight. The kicker: There aren't even long lines.

Here's how it works: From the moment you drive into the parking lot of the airport from one of two entrances, armed guards are there to monitor your car and ask you two questions: How are you and why are you here? Once inside, more questions follow as you wait in line to check in, accompanied by hand inspections of your bags when security personnel deem that wise. Finally, there's a layer of scanners and metal detectors. At all stages of the process, the Israelis employ profiling, but it's not profiling based on race, but on behavior. They are looking for things like body language and profuse sweating and other signs of unease. Crucially -- and in contrast to the United States -- your bag remains with you until your security check is complete, and you do the security checkbefore you obtain your ticket, not after.

What really distinguishes the Israeli security measures, however, is the extensive use of questioning. It's not just the casual "Have your bags been with you since you packed them?" sort of thing. It is, instead, detailed and probing and -- significantly -- once the security official starts asking you questions, s/he will never once take his eyes off of yours. This can, of course, be disconcerting. When I attended a wedding in Israel a few years back, a friend of mine -- young, single, male and traveling with two different passports, one British and one Australian -- was detained for several hours by the airport security team. Among other things, they asked to see all of the photos he'd taken on his trip and asked him why he didn't appear in any of them. (Answer: He was taking the pictures). Another friend was asked to give the security officials a pair of her jeans . . . to keep. They never told her why.

There are several reasons to think that moving towards the Israeli model would be superior to the sorts of measures that the U.S. and the U.K. have begun to implement in recent weeks. For starters, as Ria points out, profiling people by country is not a sure-fire way to screen all would-be terrorists. By enflaming the embers of anti-Islamic sentiment, this tactic could actually incite more people to commit acts of terror out of sheer resentment, rather than contain such acts.

It's also not clear that the best measure of the effectiveness of our airport security apparatus is the number of thwarted attacks, as is often thought to be the case. The best measure of our security is actually the number of attacks that aren't even attempted because would-be perpetrators fear being caught. That's counter-factual, and so it's impossible to know for sure. Still, looking at the ratio between the number of people who've said explicitly that they'd like to wipe Israel off the face of the earth and the number of attacks occurring at Ben Gurion over the last few decades, you'd have to say that the Israeli strategy seems to be working in this regard.

There are, to be sure, a number of costs to so-called Israelification. The difference in scale between the size of Israel and the U.S., for example, is enormous. By American standards, in terms of passengers served, Ben Gurion is like a busy regional airport on the order of Sacramento. So implementing Israeli-style security measures nationwide would be quite a feat.

For one thing, retraining employees at the Department of Homeland Security and the Transportation Security Agency along the lines of the Israeli model -- and both entities are already organizationally challenged -- would be both labor-intensive and expensive.

Finally, if Jan thinks civil liberties issues are involved in America's newest watch lists and security measures, those pale in comparison to the kind of liberties you'd need to give up were this scenario enacted (see above on photos and jeans). "Intrusive" would get a whole new meaning, something Bonnie got a taste of two years ago.

To be clear, I'm not advocating a full-scale Israelification for the United States' airports (although the U.K.'s smaller size makes it a much better candidate). But if we really want to talk turkey where airport security is concerned, we should certainly be at least considering it.

A Convenient Bomb Plot

By Finian Cunningham

So, just when the US public is growing increasingly weary of these trillion-dollar wars that are killing young Americans and innocent villagers with no end in sight and for no credible purpose, and just when Washington wants to expand its regional war into Yemen - we conveniently have the "Christmas Day bomb plot" with a Yemeni connection.

Now, that is a gift for US war aims.

[Amanda]

I hate the idea of being subjected to such a scan, but at the same time, safety comes first. As others pointed out, when safety is an issue, the regulations of Islam can be relaxed, so long as you never renounce your faith. Also, it's not just the idea of "I'd rather die than get a scan"... would you want your family to be at risk, children, parents, loved ones? Just because people disagree with the idea of the scan? Besides, from everything I understand, you can always ask for a body pat down instead, although I personally feel that is more invasive.

Having said that, I do respect those who are against it and your right to your opinion. And I hope that after asking the question, no one gets upset at others for sharing their opinion.

These body scanners are ALREADY in place at Manchester airport -they produce 'naked' pictures of the body right through the clothes using electromagnetic waves

This is totally haram as awrah - body figure/shape, flesh etc can be seen (not like x-ray)


We need to pick a fuss and do something about this -many Muslims aren't even aware

when it came in US the Muslims picked a fuss and so they gave them a choice but now they've already put them in place here in UK and Muslims aren't even aware!!

they are coming in Heathrow in a few weeks time if not already in place (on the net it said they are picking people at random for it at Heathrow at the moment..random...Muslims?)

Please make people aware -some Muslims are aware but don't think it so serious -if you search online and take a look at the pics you'll understand -

the other thing is you cant tell just by looking at them what they show so many Muslims are probably going right through without even knowing anything

pics can be saved too...

[Rialah]

Hmmmm

Touchy matter yes yes yes :hmm:

The thing is the last time I went to Africa with my child on a long haul flight which detoured through Europe, we had a hard time.

To be honest we were practically naked or at least I felt so by the time we went through the security area.

You have to put your bag, your coat and your shoes in one plastic bowl, your handluggage in another, your watch, jewellery, toilet bag, babybag, belt and any outer jacket or cardigan in another.

Basically I was left holding my skiet which was a belt up skirt gingerly to prevent it from falling to my knees and with the cold my teeth were chattering. Then off to the other side where I had to take a huge swig of milk and juice from the baby's bottle and they tested the toothpaste and checked the soap box, opened the nappy bags, rifled thru all the things in the bag and then left us to pack ourselves together with as much dignity as we could muster and go find our flight. We had a repeat session by the time we got to europe and stopped for our transit flight.

I would say,....... patience patience, cos you see at Lagos Airport, there are around 5 security points and they go through your bags holding up your delicate items one by one before you can even check in, then they make you go out into the hold to ' identify' your bags then you come back in and you have to go to security check where they scan your passport and ticket into a pc and then they let you go to be stamped out, then you have to go and be cleared to depart before you can go on the long walk to your flight.

In England at least if you protest, they may humour you, In Lagos, if you don't learn to try to smile and say yes sir thank you sir no problem sir okay sir alright sir, you will go nowhere and could end up with a ride in a black maria.

May Almighty Allah put out the fire of fear of Terrorism and terrorism itself before it consumes us all. Amen

Inverted Body Scanner Image Shows Naked Body In Full Living Color

Claim that devices did not show details of genitals exposed as a lie

[DISGUSTING IMAGE]

Paul Joseph Watson
Prison Planet.com
Friday, January 8, 2010

The full body scanners that President Obama last night authorized to be rolled out in airports across the country at a cost of over $1 billion dollars not only produce detailed pictures of your genitals, but once inverted some of those images also display your naked body in full living color.

And you don’t need to be a graphics wizard using a $600 software suite like Photoshop to pull off the trick – inverting a photo is a simple process that takes one click and is an option available even in the most basic image editing software.

We were sent examples of the process by readers and then tested it for ourselves to confirm that simply inverting some of the pictures produced by the body scanners creates a near-perfect replica of a naked body in full color.

[ANOTHER DISGUSTING IMAGE]

It is important to stress that this is a low resolution image. Airport screeners will have access to huge high definition images that, once inverted, will allow them to see every minute detail of your body.

The inversion trick doesn’t work for all the sample images produced by body scanners, but with or without its application, every image will still show details of your sexual organs. Even without being inverted, the images already break child porn laws in the UK.

Reassurances that airport screeners won’t be abe to save the images will provide little comfort to parents who know that the crystal clear image of their naked son or daughter being ogled by a TSA thug can merely be snapped with a handheld camera for their enjoyment later.

Apologists for the scanners have routinely described the images they produce as “ghostly” or “skeletal” in an effort to downplay the intrusion of privacy they really represent.

As we reported yesterday, claims that the body scanners did not provide details of genitals were disproven after a London Guardian journalist who was present at a trial for the machines earlier this week reported that the devices produce an image which make “genitals eerily visible.”

German Security advisor Hans-Detlef Dau, a representative for a company that sells the scanners, admits that the machines, “show intimate piercings, catheters and the form of breasts and penises”.


Indeed, as was admitted when the scanners were first being rolled out over a year ago, they don’t function properly if areas of the body are blurred out.

A report from October 2008, when the naked body scanners were first being introduced at Melbourne Airport in Australia, detailed how the X-ray backscatter devices don’t work properly unless the genitals of people going through them are visible.

“It will show the private parts of people, but what we’ve decided is that we’re not going to blur those out, because it severely limits the detection capabilities,” said Office of Transport Security manager Cheryl Johnson.

“It is possible to see genitals and breasts while they’re going through the machine,” she admitted.

TV news reports have been deliberately misleading viewers by blurring out faces and genitals of people in images produced by the scanners. When it comes to the real thing, your sexual organs and those of your children will be on full display to officials sat alone in back rooms, and with a simple inversion trick, your daughter’s naked body in full living high definition color will be there to be enjoyed by screeners.

Israeli mind-scanner may take over US airports
Fri, 29 Jan 2010 08:41:02 GMT

Font size :

As part of stringent measures to beef up airport security, US authorities may use an Israeli-made mind-reading scanner that allegedly predicts whether a passenger is a potential threat or not.

The Transportation and Safety Administration (TSA) and the Homeland Security are considering the installment of a controversial mind-reading system, that was recently developed by the Israeli-based WeCU Technologies, in all American airports, AP reported on Thursday.

The device, which functions by blending high computer technology and behavioral psychology, is essentially designed to "get inside the evildoers head" without the subject's knowledge and prevent him or her from placing the lives of fellow travelers in jeopardy.

According to WeCU Technologies CEO, Ehud Givon, people cannot help reacting mechanically to recognizable images that suddenly appear in unfamiliar places.

With that in mind, the system aims to project images onto airport screens, such as symbols affiliated with a terrorist group or signs only a terrorist would recognize.

Givon said while the WeCU system would use humans to do some of the observing, it would rely largely on concealed cameras or covert biometric sensors that can distinguish a rise in body temperature and heart rate, however slight it may be.

“One by one, you can screen out from the flow of people those with specific malicious intent,” Givon claimed.

The controversial device has sparked an outcry among civil rights groups, who argue that a system that combs through your brain to look for evil intentions is "Orwellian" and akin to "brain fingerprinting."

The groups note that the US should not follow in Israeli footsteps with regards to Airport security. At the Ben-Gurion Airport in Israel, Jewish Israelis pass through smoothly, while Arab Palestinians are taken aside for closer interrogation or even strip searches.

The US is already subjected to wide-spread controversy over the appliance of full body scanners, which according to critics, are in violation of child protection laws as well as the right of travelers to privacy.

LOL, those will work, very stylish;D.

We have those at my company. The law made them mandatory for working on any electric or motor control systems over 480 volts, they are called "Arc Flash" suits(and there really expensive!)we use them when working on 10,000 volt und up services for safety.

God bless.
