Actually, Arabs are also known to follow Christian, Judaism or Druze religions. (Arabs Religion, n.d.) One U.S. policy that has recently been changed, since the attacks on America, is racial profiling. This tactic if often used in American airports to overt further attacks on American soil. The check-in process at American airports is a stringent procedure that many Americans and visitors are subjected to experience because he or she may resemble the Arab or Middle Eastern race. There have been laws put into place to prevent racial profiling based on an individuals religion or religious appearance in four states, Alaska, California, Massachusetts and Arkansas.
Americans know “racial profiling is both morally wrong and ineffective”, but they rather be safe than sorry (Chavez 563). Americans only get the idea that all middle easterners are terrorists because media has taken the role of portraying them in such a way to plants terror in Americans (Spurlock). People have gotten to the point of people being “singled out” because of looking certain way or because people around them feel uncomfortable (Chavez 569).
doesn’t have many things to go against it. One safe way to stop terrorism is the Visa Security Program. The Visa Security Program interdicts criminals, terrorists and others who would exploit the legal visa process to enter the United States. The program serves as the agency’s frontline in protecting the United States against terrorist and criminal organizations. While many security measures focus on screening names against lists of known terrorist or criminal suspects, the program relies on HSI special agents to identify potential terrorist or criminal suspects and stops them before they can reach the U.S. Another way to stop terrorism are scanners.
Such areas included: Egypt, North Africa, Armenia, etc. While many had tried to face the Islamic forces, they often fell to them in their bloody conquest to establish dominance. However, not all converts were forced into accepting the Islamic faith by ways of violence. Some people were converted through voluntary association because the religion and traditions appealed to them. On the other hand, others were forced to accept the faith through induced pressures.
Missionaries bridged differences throughout dar al-Islam. Educational institutes promoted Islamic values. They worshiped Allah as their only god. Pilgrims helped to spread Islamic beliefs and values to all parts of the Islamic world. Patriarchal society.
People from immigration started going to people`s houses especially Muslims to check if they are legal to live in this country or not. The United States also secured the American and Mexican border. They feared that the terrorists would have a great chance in entering America through the Mexican border. All this change had made it very hard for Muslim’s
Many individuals in the United States including Middle-Eastern males have been a subject to racial profiling. Racial profiling has increased dramatically since September 11th, 2001 and Homeland Security has deliberately wasted valuable time and resources when profiling ethic individuals of terrorist activities. As the director of the ACLU Washington Legislative Office Caroline Fredrickson once said, “Racial and ethnic profiling are not only wrong, but they don’t work. The time and resources spent by DHS rounding up, interrogating and investigating innocent American immigrants could have been spent dealing with actual threats to our country” (ACLU). Another type of racial profiling occurred when Homeland Security and law enforcement officials passed a law indicating U.S citizenship was one of a job requirement for certain job position.
In the landmark case, Gideon v. Wainwright (1964) which stated persons charged with a crime have the right to an attorney even if one cannot be afforded. The right to representation and speedy trial are critical to due process and limits government power to detain an individual indefinitely. This notion was challenged with the events of September 11th, 200l. Acts of terrorism have comprised civil liberties raising attention to how far the government can go investigating and prosecuting individuals. After the attacks Congress passed the U.S.A Patriot law to increase investigations on terrorist (Wilson, 2009).
Illegal Mexican Immigrants Raven Reed Dr. Stephen Kenealy PAD 590 D R P June 3, 2012 Introduction This section will detail how and what immigration laws and policies the United States are using to help reduce or control the problem of illegal immigration. There are many regulation, policies and laws in place to help prevent, limit or eventually stop illegal immigrants from migrating to America. The impetus of illegal immigration deterrence starts with efficient and effective of immigration laws and regulations. Senate Bill 1070 (Arizona), Proposition 187 (California) and Hammon-Beason 56 (Alabama) are just some of the controversial immigration bills designed to help stop the flow of illegal immigrants from migrating to America primarily focusing on illegal Mexican immigrants. Both articles are detailing laws and regulation on the issue of illegal immigration whether or not the laws are created by the state or federal government.
The key provisions will be identified along with their meanings to both governmental agencies and the average citizen. Section 203 (b) and (d) information sharing: allows information from criminal probes to be shared with intelligence agencies and other parts of the government. These provisions are at the heart of the effort to break down the barriers that used to separate criminal and intelligence investigations. The United States Justice Department has frequently blamed these barriers for the failure to find and detain September 11th hijackers prior to the attacks. CIA agents had information significantly prior to the attacks that some of the hijackers were in the United States and were suspected terrorists, but the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) claims they did not receive the information until August
