That is not what he is saying.  Saying we have certain behaviors or traits
that match those of other, known, terrorists, one of which is being Muslim,
it vastly different than saying all Muslims are terrorists.

How come people do not get all up in arms when the FBI uses profiling to
catch serial killers? Why is it OK in those instances, but not for trying to
stop terrorists?

Lets look at the guys who hijacked the planes on 9/11.  How many were
Muslims from the Middle East?  Oh yea, ALL OF THEM. Does that mean that all
Muslims are terrorists? No. It means tha ta commomnality between them is
that they Muslims from the Middel East

If you were a cop and wanted to stop a particular kind of crime, would you
begin by looking at everyone?  No. You would begin to narrow down the
suspect pool by finding traits and behaviors that match those of others who
have committed the same kind of crime.  In other words, you would develop a
profile.  Will it always be 100% accurate? No, but its a hell of a lot more
accurate than randomly looking at local church groups, boy scout troops, etc
in the hopes that you will stumble upon a group of gun runners.
