Arrhh - Is there censorship on PPRUNE??

My last post was deleted, perhaps by accident?

If not, let me clarify. I'll start out with a quote from ironbutt57:

and now being hypocrites (the Chinese) by refusing to carry passengers from certain countries, the vast majority of whom are just ordinary travellers....

I don't find this hypocritical at all. The problems is that the terrorists look just like "the vast majority".

Political correctness is not what is going to prevent further terrorist attacks. I still say "great move, I whish the western world had the stregth to do so aswell" (is that so bad that it has to be sensored? If so please give me an explanation instead of just deleting my post).

For the record, I'm not advocating a ban of muslims, but a ban of passport holders from terrorist contries (such as the Chinese has imposed) would in my opinion be appropriate.
