“I am not a terrorist”

In response to Iraqi blogger Raed Jarrar’s experience at JFK where he was stopped from boarding his plane because he was wearing a shirt with Arabic writing, Tim Murtaugh has created a shirt that says “I am not a terrorist” in Arabic.

I am not a terrorist (in Arabic)
"I am not a terrorist"

There are versions for men and women available (i.e. not stylistically, but translation-wise). Profits ($1.00 per shirt) go to the ACLU.

If you wear this shirt to the airport (and I’d encourage you to do so), be practical and keep a cover-up shirt in your carry on luggage — that is, assuming that missing your flight would be unacceptable.
