All those questions were part of an email that went around 2 years ago about racial profiling. At the time it wasn't set up like a history test...

We do need racial and religious profiling. Sure anyone could be a terrorist but we are at war with muslims; specifically the war fighting age group of men. Profiling germans and japs in WWI and WWII wasn't wrong and we won those wars so..why is it so bad in WWIII? If people(liberals) won't wake up we might just lose this one.
