What in all hells?

I feel sorry for her.

Just because someone is Muslim doesn't mean they're out to get all Americans. The majority are good people. It's the fundamentalists that give any religion a bad name.

That's .. scary.

But it couldn't have been just because she was muslim could it? If it was, wouldn't a huge number of other people have also been arrested?

One of the most unsettling points in this problem is that there's been no real reason given for their incarceration.

I don't know much about the happenings in the US, but there has been news reports in Australia since 9/11 of Muslims plucked up by police with no real explanation presented, too. Granted, not teenagers, but reports nonetheless.

If these people really are terrorists, I hope to God that they're punished for their actions. However, I really don't see the sense in holding sixteen year olds and not informing the media as to why.
