Two-year-old Emirati boy held as airport threat
Bureacracy runs amok again with mindless watch lists.
You have to wonder: if this is how incompetantly governments deal with their citizens, how effectively can they deal with an actual terror threat?
Incidents like this happen every day in US airports. People, who happen to share the same name as someone on the list legitimately, are detained for hours even if they are of a different age, height and race than their namesake.
And this has been the state of affairs for FIVE YEARS! That is what your three trillion dollars is buying for you.
