[Henrik Öhrström]

Ethnic profiling have its own limitations, El Als security was very neatly

swedish newspaper) used persons who did not look like palestinians or arabic
but looked like "native" judes. They could waltz right through with
suitcases filled with plastelina, because nobody looked twice at them.
