Yes, you use *intelligence* (which could be *supplied* by the innocent members of the Muslim community who may have suspicions of one of their members) to investigate that person.
Of course if you've ******ed off the members of that community by treating them *all* as potential terrorists, some who may have come forward might, instead say "to hell with them".

And the same principle could be applied to any group. If you had reason to believe that Spaniards were goint to cause an outrage, you wouldn't just seek out the ones that "look like" they belong to ETA?

So, based on this, you would treat *every* Spaniard as a potential threat?

And I suggest you do a search in these groups for posts with my name and the words "presumed innocent until proven guilty" included for a multitude of arguments for why this is an extremely short sighted and foolish statement.
