Her brother Abed Ayoub, a lawyer who works for The American-Arab Anti-Discrimination, told news.com.au: “It may not sound like much at first glance, being told to move from your seat, but it fits into a pattern of discrimination against Arab Americans. This happens to our community on planes ...
“These women are mothers. These women are sisters. These women are wives. They are women whose lives are going to be impacted by what you’re saying to them. You don’t have a right to treat them that way.”
Ayoub shared details of the confrontation on Twitter as it was happening, with Hider’s husband relaying what was happening.
I think I found the source of the irritation ... her brother!
I thought that people with fevers couldn't fly ... or is that from before the time of protected diseases?
Really? I wonder why?
I wonder if Abed is one of the mysterious 15 who strategized with Obama in secret yesterday.
Not just any brother but a brother who’s a lawyer who works for The American-Arab Anti-Discrimination. Yep, ‘nuff said.
