While we’re busy arguing over whether or not to racially profile, these guys will be murdering us.

Police in southern Serbia’s Sandzak region last month arrested six local Muslims and accused them of belonging to a fundamentalist Wahhabi sect - an austere brand of Sunni Islam promoted by extremists, including the Taliban, Osama bin Laden and his al-Qaida fighters.

Recently leaked Western intelligence reports allege that the tense, impoverished area, along with Muslim-dominated regions in neighboring Bosnia, are rich ground for recruiting so-called “white al-Qaida” - Muslims with Western features who could easily blend into European or U.S. cities and carry out attacks.

Al-Qaida and other radical Islamic groups, the reports warn, may be trying to increase their influence in the Muslim-populated regions in the southern Europe to penetrate deeper into the continent.

Many of us have seen this coming for a while. I only hope that the FBI, RCMP, DHS and others have also been tracking it.

I had to shake my head the other day when a colleague was talking about a friend of hers, and how “old world” and “traditional” he was. I asked her if he was Muslim. Her answer?

No, he’s Serbian!

Honey, that wasn’t what I asked.

I admit, it’s easier to keep my eye on the brown men with the beards on the subway platform. It’s easier for the cops to do it, too. And while we’re doing that, some white Mohammed in a three piece suit is pulling a cord on his briefcase.

We’re just not safe anywhere so long as we have Islam, and allow it in our midst.
