The Kansas City International Airport has added several foot-washing basins in restrooms to accommodate a growing number of Muslim taxicab drivers who requested the facilities to prepare for daily Islamic prayer, WND has learned.
The move concerns airport police who worry about Middle Eastern men loitering inside the building. After 9/11, the airport beefed up its police force to help prevent terrorist attacks.
“Why are we constructing places of worship for them inside our airports?” said an airport official who requested anonymity. “Why are we catering to their rituals? We don’t do it for any other religion.”
Other major airports also are dealing with increased demands from Muslim cabdrivers.

Yes, try it we will back you!
This Nation is made up of immigrants from many Nations. People that come to this Country to build their life for themself & their families AND to live FREE. I don't have a problem with that. But when they come into my Country to
kill, that's a different story!
The majority of our Military are/ either immigrants, or children of Immigrants. They came here for the above reason's mentioned and they serve our/ their Military with Pride and we are PROUD of THEM.
If they are such prideful people, and dedicated to allah, then WHY do they wear a rag over their faces?????
As far as I'm concerned they can go back to the Middle East.
They come into our Country to make war like it was discovered today. GO HOME!
No construction for wash-up to worship allah???
Islam means: Submission.
Let's increase our demands: GO HOME!!!!!

let them put their feet in the damn toilet bowls if they want to "cleanse them"
This is getting absolutely ridiculous. I seriously doubt that these wash basins will last very long...no doubt, they will be vandalized because it will piss people off.
the way people feel in this country today...I think it would take a lot of cahonies for a Muslim to do that in a public restroom. Someone might go off on him. I hope not, but I think this is just asking for trouble.
Let's see, us Catholics would like "holy water" put in at the airport gates so we can dip our fingers and bless ourselves before we get on the plane.

This is an outrage. Maybe it's some lame gesture of "goodwill" towards Muslims. I have no problem with people practicing their religious beliefs. But there is a time and a place. The privacy of ones own home or building of worship is good enough!
Who knows maybe it will be some ones "religion" to pee in those foot bowls:-)

Maybe they should take a lunch break and go home and wash their feet. Others would gladly take the fare and not have to stop for this. Christians pray all day long and keep going, heard of any christian cab drivers say to you wait I need to pray, then add your luggage to the trunk

This is pathetic liberalism at its worst.
Swear to God, If that happened here...
I'd get Blue 1000 flushes and spike their footwater!
They'd be running around with blue feet!
I'd put a chunk in a plastic wrapper, break up a chunk with a hammer, put it in my pocket...go to rest room...nobody looking...put it right in the water clauset...their foot washer flushes? Or they use the same water....dyes feet BLUE.
The authorities "should have explained that inside every stall in the men's room is a little foot washer just for Muslims...but do not take the white or black plastic home to make picture frames for that Muslim family!
