Hello, Habib...  I was not aware that the guy who hijacked the bus had weaposn or was Jewish.  What was he planning on doing?  I actually never heard the outcome of that story.  All I knew was that the man had hijacked the bus and he was later found in Maryland?  I think it was anyway.  I never heard the reason for why he hijacked the bus.  
     But you are right, had the man been Muslim, I think we definitely would have heard what happened.  It's just like the guy a few months back who attacked the driver on the Greyhound bus and caused the bus to overturn.  Since he as found to be mentally insane, or have mental problems, the media didn't care anymore...
     But if the man woudlhave been Muslim or Arab, the situation would have been much different.
     As far as Al Gore goes, I lived in Tennessee for a while, and I know a lot of people didn't like him, but I didn't know the man was racist.  If I remember correctly, he didn't even carry his own state in the Presidential elections...
     I, myself, did not vote in the last elections, my father was not very pleased with eitehr I or my brother, since none of us voted.  I had asked tog et registered, but had trouble getting transportation to register.  Maybe I should register here where I am living now...
