6 Imams Will Sue US Airways (The Flyin' Imams!!)
StarTribune ^ | 3/12/07 | AP

Posted on 03/12/2007 3:08:46 PM PDT by ButThreeLeftsDo

Six Islamic leaders who were removed from a US Airways flight say they'll sue the airline for discrimination. The Council on American-Islamic Relations says it will provide details on the lawsuit tomorrow at a Washington news conference.

Six imams returning to Phoenix from a religious conference in November were taken off a plane in Minneapolis, handcuffed, and questioned.

They had prayed in the airport before the flight, and after they boarded, a passenger who considered them suspicious passed a note to a flight attendant.

Wasn't that the point of this little exercise to begin with?

dang..concoct a dry run where you scare passengers, crew, pilots and airport personnel in an attempt to check to see how good the security/awareness is, then sue because someone gets scared (as they should have)..it's amazing the way they use our political correctness against us..

BTW, this demand for money was called on FR way back when this incident first happened..

They are learning the system and emulating Jesse Jackson's shakedown techniques.

It is a win-win for them. They test the system. Then they sue and collect $$$$ if they get caught.

An attempt to intimidate airlines while planning future incidents. I hope US Airlines doesn't settle, I'd like to be on that jury.

Great news.

Put these camel humpers on the stand under oath.

First little whiff of perjury, throw their asses in jail

The Muslims are going to use the enclosed spaces of airports and airplanes to terrorize innocent passengers with their presence. Kick them off all flights, and keep them off. THIS IS A WAR. MAN UP, FOR GOD'S SAKE!

Just another frontal assault in their war on the US and Western Civ.

I can't imagine why people used to take the law into their own hand when confronted by a threat. It's amazing people sit back and just watch scumbags like these in the midst of their attack.

Something tells me this was all about money from the start.

They staged an event knowing they could sue over it.

Exactly. They get this ruled in their favor and then it's on to Step #2 of the terrorism list.
