There was a black
sergeant
near the end of the movie.
Actually I think he was a captain, if you will recall Willis's line at the end of the film. In fact, it's not even a line. The entire quote is literally one word: "Captain!" Then the black soldier is the first we see and the first to raise his gun up against the agents. I'm not exactly sure if the black cap on his head represents any sort of rank.
In that same scene is a soldier in the army who looks to be of Hispanic or Middle-Eastern descent (ironically enough).

You're right, I just watched that scene again. But, when the conversation is over Bruce Willis says "Stand down, sergeant". Than the camera went to the black soldier and lowered his weapon. It's a little confusing to indicate wich rank he was but that really doesn't matter. I was just pointing out that the soldiers in the army aren't all white, but there are black soldiers too.

No, I got that. I just felt like making a funny correction that had nothing to do with the primary topic.
Also, that contradiction you pointed out is strange. I never noticed that. Hmmmm and I know this movie front and back too. Strange indeed..

Tony Shalhoub's character is a Lebanese Muslim. Thus we see his 15 year old son being included in the terror suspect's profiling and therefore detained.
The OP was way off.
There was no indication through the movie that Annette Bening's character was Jewish. That one's come from left field too.
