Dunno if you've discovered Orcinus yet -- you probably have -- but I just recently stumbled across the blog & it's rapidly becoming one of my favorite places to hang.
Anyway, here's an older post that's just excellent, a smack down of Malkin's reprehensible book defending the Japanese internment, which is, of course, actually just a bit of propaganda meant to argue that we should be rounding up Muslims (and probably all folks that are not-white Christians) and locking them in camps, you know, before they blow us all to bits.

Problem is, as Dave points out, "over the past 10 years, there have been many more acts of real terrorism planned and committed on American soil by white fundamentalist Christians than by radical Islamists of Arab extraction. If we're going to commit to racial profiling based on known terrorist threats, then whites, once again, would be the first logical choice."
Go read the whole post, though. It's great.
