Ever since the Muslim imams were removed from a plane after the big Islam-o-conference last week, we have repeatedly been subjected to the notion that they were “profiled” or that Islamophobia has taken over America. Well, here’s a bit more information for you from the Washington Times:

Passengers and flight attendants told law-enforcement officials the imams switched from their assigned seats to a pattern associated with the September 11 terrorist attacks and also found in probes of U.S. security since the attacks — two in the front row first-class, two in the middle of the plane on the exit aisle and two in the rear of the cabin.

“That would alarm me,” said a federal air marshal who asked to remain anonymous. “They now control all of the entry and exit routes to the plane.” [emphasis added]

Wonder why there was concern?
