Earlier I talked about a ThinkProgress post regarding racial profiling based on the conservative myths "all terrorists look alike," and "by and large, all terrorists are Middle Eastern Muslims." With the recent arrest of "Jihad Jane," I can add another picture to show the differences.
Top row: Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab (Christmas Day bomber), Richard Reid (shoe bomber).
Bottom row: Colleen LaRose, aka "Jihad Jane". (American recruiter for Al Qaeda).
