I am still at a loss to work out how ID cards can assist in the 'war on terror'; Mohammed Atta and others connected with 9/11 were in the US as *legal citizens* before carrying out their attack. This is just an excuse to try to get everyone behind what is a blatant mass invasion of privacy.
To all the 'you must have something to hide' brigade - would you accept routine strip searches / private property searches on the basis that you should have nothing to fear if you have nothing to hide? Well, would you?
