United States of America – Saddam Hussein and 14 of the 19 dead Sept. 11 hijackers are among the names on the U.S. no-fly list designed to stop terrorists boarding planes, on a secret U.S. government list of 44,000 people, used to screen airline passengers for potential terrorists.

Former FBI agent Jack Cloonan said, that the list was hastily assembled after the Sept. 11 attacks and was bungled. “When we heard the name list or no-fly list … the eyes rolled back in my head, because we knew what was going to happen,” he says.
While the list includes such unlikely would-be terrorists, the 11 British suspects recently charged with plotting to blow up airliners with liquid explosives were not on it, despite being under surveillance for more than a year.
A spokesman for the Department of Homeland Security had no immediate comment.
Yeah, but they pulled a religious jew off of the plane for saying tehillim and shukling zich back and forth, because he was A FANATIC!!!!
