A Muslim criticizes the stupidity of the six flying imams, though he gets several jabs at “Islam-phobic” and “paranoid” America. I prefer to think of it as common sense rather a phobia and paranoia. Still, he has a few common sensical things to say himself, such as:

In this post-9/11 era, when I travel, I am always clean-shaven; I leave
my prayer rug and my nail clippers at home along with my feta cheese
and cans of fava beans. I don’t even pray at a mosque, let alone at the
airport. My biggest concern at the airport is not connecting with God
Almighty but connecting with my flight.

He says these six imams were just dumb, but I think they knew what they were doing: trying to scare the infidels.
