BECHARA 'MUSALMAN' KHAN?

The huge hue and cry with headlines in the print and electronic media over King (self appointed?) Khan’s recent experience at a US airport sadly reflects the false sense of superiority and total lack of respect for rules and regulations by the celebrity crowd.
Indian celebrities assume that democracy gives them the right to be treated as special persons for whom rules, regulations, systems and laws can and have to be bent.
(Un) fortunately in USA - no one is above the law - and the guy mandated to apply the law and implement rules executes it in letter and spirit without fear or favour.
The pathetic quality of statements made by SRK (also amusing) and his sundry buddies in Bollywood along with a Minister is a shame and totally unwarranted. Their reaction confirms shallow understanding of facts related to the episode and the need to appreciate results obtained by strict adherence to security protocols laid down by USA after 9/11.
Highlighting 'religious profiling' to portray one self as a victim is becoming a style statement!!
It is an undisputed ugly fact that the only religion which is used as the reason by terrorists to kill, maim and destroy innocents around the world is used by other Muslims as a veil to hide themselves and keep silent without protesting against the monsters amongst them.
The majority of Muslims (especially celebrities like Mr. Khan should take advantage of their ‘religious profile’ status) have a duty and responsibility to openly rally against the Musalman terrorists/Taliban to ensure their capabilities are compromised. Islam should not and cannot be allowed to be abused by these lunatics.
The zero tolerance attitude of USA for homeland security is a lesson which Indian security authorities should consult Mr. Khan about!!
