Giving away the store
On June 21, a senior DHS official from Washington personally guided Muslim officials from the Council on American-Islamic Relations on a behind-the-scenes tour of Customs screening operations at O'Hare International Airport in response to CAIR complaints that Muslim travelers were being unfairly delayed as they entered the U.S. from abroad.
Wow. First off, I don't care who wants to see backstage. No one should get to see how we do Customs Operations, except for Customs, any governmental oversight bodies, and third party security assessors under NDA. Period. But CAIR? Let's be frank. Even in the most positive of all worldviews, you can't call CAIR sympathetic to the plight of the average American. In a more cynical worldview, you'd have to wonder if any of the tricks used by customs will be discussed with someone who might possibly be connected to a terrorist organization.
Whoever set this up on the part of DHS needs a little reprimanding.
