Islam means 'submission.'

We're submitting already.

Just another way we are being forced to give a royal welcome to our replacements.

I am still trying to figure out from this story what is meant by “Pakistani monks”? I know of no monasticism in Islam! Has anyone else heard of a monastic Islam?

There’s plenty of room in the wheel well. Let them sit there.

It’s Islamic clerics but they CAN’T SAY “Islam” as it’s un PC.

So they rewrote the story courtesy of CAIR.

Just to prevent the ‘backlash’ y’know...

Pakistan is the @$$hole of the world. Nothing good comes from the place.

Following anything they believe is truly lowest common denominator territory.

They are Buddhist monks. There would no complaint from this harridan if they were Muslim.

"Apologize to every female that was on that plane, including their employees. Change their policy. Campos said if she didn’t get those things, she would do whatever she had to do to protect women’s rights."

She won't so she needs to sue, file a discrimination complaint, and organize female customers and shareholders to cause enough trouble that United Airlines changes its ways.

Not this woman.

Good for her.

We all need to stand against this kind of nonsense.

Well the color is right! But every Buddhist monk I met while traveling was very gracious and interesting pleasure to sit next to on a long flight. I also saw them sitting next to women many many times. Something is off about this story.

There was a coterie of monks in orange nightshirts at tne Salesforce.com “Dreamforce” conference in San Francisco last week. Marc Benioff, the CEO, seems to have brought them to the show to promote “mindfulness.” He is an ultra-liberal and about 80% of his keynote talk was nauseating blather about liberal pet causes like women in tech, equality, peace, love, evils,of white people, etc (the audience really did approve of the endless sermon).

How ironic if the monks that forced Ms. Campos to change seats were the same monks who were the props at Dreamforce to promote equality.

Yes, all the Buddhists I’ve encountered have been quite humble and genial.

There are Pakistani Buddhist Monks. The interesting thing is why choose the word Pakistani instead of Buddhist? Can’t just use the word monk?

Not very tolerant of others rights. Neither the monks or the woman.

We live in a time of “rights”, who is going to win?

If it was that important to them, they should have bought an extra airplane ticket.

We should not have to accommodate them.

This link talks about a Pakistani Buddhist some 1400 years ago. I don’t think he & his cohorts were on the plane. If they were, no wonder the women was upset!
