It got hardly any notice in the mainstream media, but the New York Post
did report on June 24 that "a JFK Airport terminal had to be evacuated
and hundreds of passengers marched back through security screening all
because one dimwitted agent failed to realize his metal detector had
been unplugged." The Post called this an example of "the TSA's
bungling," but actually it was a telling indication of what is wrong
with our airport security procedures, and it shows why the TSA should be
shut down altogether.
"The chaos at Terminal 7," the Post reported, "was caused by screener Alija Abdul Majed, who had manned Lane No. 1 during the morning shift with no idea his metal detector had no juice, sources said."
A Muslim TSA screener, Alija Abdul Majed, left his screener unplugged for hours. This was no accident. This was a dry run. Majed, said the Post, failed "to realize that alert lights never flashed once as streams of passengers filed through the dead detector." Yeah, right.
We have devout Muslim screeners screening for devout Muslims? This defines insanity. Nor is it the first such incident. The Post reported in June 2011 that "chilling Islamic graffiti found in the bathroom of a jet due to take off from Newark Airport was inexplicably erased by a cleaner after the Transportation Safety Administration waited 47 critical minutes to contact cops."
