A Muslim woman who claimed over the weekend–in a social media post that has since gone viral–that United Airlines discriminated against her because of her faith, has a history rife with deep connections to the Muslim Brotherhood and radical Imams.
31-year-old Tahera Ahmad, who serves as the Muslim chaplain at Northwestern University, claimed over the weekend that she was discriminated against because a United Airlines flight attendant allegedly refused to give her a full can of unopened Diet Coke. When asked for an explanation as to why she had been refused her unopened Diet Coke, the flight attendant allegedly told her that the Coke can could be used as a “weapon on the plane,” Ahmad stated in a Facebook post. After she complained, a passenger told her, “You Moslem you need to shut the f—k up,” according to Ahmad’s recounting of what happened on board. Ahmad’s Facebook page was taken down this afternoon.
Without any evidence (but for her firsthand account) that the incident ever occurred, many in the mainstream media have taken to reporting on Ahmad’s account as a case of “Islamophobia.”
Islamic supremacist groups such as CAIR (Council on American-Islamic relations) have condemned United, telling Al Jazeera that they have taken an interest in filing a lawsuit on behalf of Ahmad.
Ahmad’s claims of discrimination have not been corroborated by any passengers, and United Airlines rejects that any wrongdoing or acts of discrimination occurred.
United Airlines released a statement that the flight attendant “attempted several times to accommodate Ms. Ahmad’s beverage request.” However, her post has since gone viral, with many calling for a boycott of United Airlines due to its alleged mistreatment of Ahmad.

Good. Being a Muslim should be like being a Nazi. You have a right to be one, but normal people will loathe and hate you.
Muslims boycotting United Airlines. What’s the downside?
What was she doing drinking Diet Coke, anyway? It’s not halal, and there is a fatwa on it.
“When they step on the American flag, talk about tearing down our government and killing our people, it’s free speech.
When I say anything back to them, it’s hate speech.”
That’s why I keep a stack of korans next to the fireplace to use for fire starters. Never use them to start the barbecue because they stink up the meat!
If you’re on a short flight you only get a cup of coke. Unless the flight is empty and you schmooze the flight attendant.
“Good. Being a Muslim should be like being a Nazi. You have a right to be one, but normal people will loathe and hate you.”
Does this fly if we change one word -(of faith)- to - a ‘way of life’???
Well said.
“Its not like there was a hair on the can, right?”
Was Justice Thomas moonlighting as a flight attendant?
“Unless the flight is empty and you schmooze the flight attendant.”
Flew back from Hawaii on Christmas Day many years ago with my family. 5 passengers on the plane, Mom and Dad, Sister and me, and Ed Asner!
Ed came over to get some adulation, and my Father refused to even look at him. Mom was polite. I split to go “schmooze” the stewardesses. Wow! I sure had a good time!
I didn’t say “faith”. So what’s your point?
United doesn’t not give out the whole can for security reasons. They do it because they are cheap.
You mean Dad didn’t take the opportunity for Ed to explain why he is such a stupid, flaming-assed lib? Or why he hasn’t learned anything from the former President of the Screen Actors Guild, the fabulous Ronald Reagan?
Mrs. Hugin just gave him a look that could kill and said "It's your job". and he opened it and left.
There’s a poster on flyertalk who claims to have been seated near her. He says she was given a full can of diet coke with a plastic cup but demanded coke zero. The FA tried to find her one, but all she had left was an open can of Coke zero. The passenger claimed discrimination and whipped out her credit card to go online and commence the rabble rousing. Just an Internet rumor so far but you gotta know there’s more to this story,
“the mooslim scumbag was testing for a lawsuit”
Just tell CAIR they don’t have the standing for a lawsuit.
Any time I fly I locate potential islamic threats.
I then keep an an eye on them so I can do a UFC take down, ground and pound.
This Islamo beotch is offended? If she only knew...When she is in an airport, I guarantee that at least 100 people consider calling the police while calculating how they are going to take her down.
Without any evidence (but for her firsthand account) that the incident ever occurred, many in the mainstream media have taken to reporting on Ahmad’s account as a case of
cishetronormativematriarchy with stewardesophobia.
Maybe the attendent looked like Clarance Thomas???
If Muslims want to boycott United Airlines, go for it. Boycott the others too.
Do you have channel OANN on your cable, Dish, U-verse? 208 on U-verse.
They ran a program, likely will be run again, Jihad in America or something similar. Covers this exact type of incident and more.
A blood boiling program. Some of our idiot officials, undersecretary in Homeland Security up to his neck in appeasing these killers.
Show up at the gate with a big bag of Pork Rinds and make sure everyone sees them.
