It is vital that we examine this piece of US imperialism critically, with our eyes wide open. The new ‘security’ measures, i.e. the no fly list, proposed air marshals on all flights to the US, and now the finger printing of visitors (with the notable exception of 29 European countries) are all part of the United States’ attempt to hold the entire world hostage and in effect exercise its own brand of terror. Just as the U.S is intent on treating all non-nationals and non-Europeans with suspicion and denigration, the world population has equal right to view the US in the same way. If these security measures are an attempt to secure a country’s national borders then indeed every country has a right to secure its borders against the worlds biggest terrorists to date: the United States of America.
