One look at my last name in Tel Aviv and they detained me for 3 hours, didn't even ask any questions in immigration. Cut my beard off for them, too. Didn't work.

Where are you from Coombs?

You couldn't pay me enough to ever go to Tel Aviv. Hope I'll never have to go there for business, ironically if I tried getting out of having to go there I'd be called anti-Semitic

Qwiss

Is there dual meaning for Jihad when its used as a name like that?

Burnwinter

Yeah, it means your uncle Bob instead of a lifetime of spiritual struggle.

Qwiss

Maybe ill call my next kid Tiocfaidh ar la

Think this sort of thing has been primed for years, its beyond an extremist issue, its very much in the mainstream now. I'd hate to be a middle eastern or black guy getting on a plane these day. See something, say something.

i don't have a problem on planes, same for pretty much everyone i know. now walking around bloomberg's nyc, that was a bitch.

Burnwinter

I'm guessing the police probably take a special interest though right?

Meatwad

yeah special interest, that's an interesting way to look at it. i don't know anyone that respects the pigs. even my grandma hates them.

Biggus

But its not all bad he can turn racial profiling to his advantage.
If he goes shoplifting he should enter the store separately from his innocent looking accomplice, then while all the store security's eyes are on him browsing, his accomplice should fill her coat.
He may even be stopped and searched as he leaves providing the opportunity for a righteous indignant rant demanding an apology.

Jihad means struggle.

Going to Uni is jihad. Delivering a child is Jihad.
Trying to survive a family gathering with aunts and cousins twice and thrice removed is Jihad.

Biggus

Yeah yeah yeah but thinking for yourself is too much of a jihad.

Gurgen

Watching Arsenal is jihad.

Burnwinter

Reading your posts when certain issues are involved is the ultimate jihad.

So it's sort of like penance?

No, because there's a point to it.

jones

Watching Arsenal is more penance than jihad tbf.
