>>There you have it...nice job other passengers. Expose these inmates errr...Inmans or whatever they call themselves for who they really are!<<
Yeah but they shouldn't get thrown off fro praying... the guy with Bin Laudin and Hamas ties never should have gotten that far.

If that post was really directed at me I don't get it.
I said that somebody connected with Hamas and Bin Laudin never should have gotten far enough for the passengers to be involved - security should have stopped him. But that in general you should not get thrown off an airplane for praying.
Is that the post you really meant to criticize?
High Volume. Articles on Israel can also be found by clicking on the Topic or Keyword Israel. or WOT [War on Terror]

I guess you really don't get it - no problem - just let me know how "jihad on your street" works out for you.

Its certainly ok for us to disagree but I was trying to understand which part you had a problem with - the part where I criticiized security for letting somebody tied to Bin Laudin get on the plane in the first place or the part where I defended freedom to pray in public no matter your religion.
Now I understand. Best to you.
I like your idea! Excellent!
Excellent job.

I did the same.
Work-related accident victim?
Does he also have a hook where a hand used to be?
Dear C.A.I.R.,
I am not a racist, but when it comes to your friends, I am definitely a "bigot".
Sincerely...

Dear Valued Customer:
Thank you for taking the time to contact Customer Relations at US Airways. Your comments and perception of US Airways are very important to us.
We are aware of the situation involving six customers on US Airways Flight 300 from Minneapolis to Phoenix on the evening of November 20th, and are diligently conducting our own investigation. We are debriefing crewmembers and ground personnel as well as working with local law enforcement. We will cooperate fully with all of the appropriate law enforcement officials to determine the facts surrounding this incident.
We are always concerned when passengers are inconvenienced and especially concerned when a situation occurs which causes customers to feel their dignity was compromised. We do not tolerate discrimination of any kind and will continue to exhaust our internal investigation until we know the facts of this case and can provide answers for the employees and customers involved.
Thank you for sharing your comments and allowing us the opportunity to explain our position.
Sincerely,
M. Bartlett
Customer Relations

IMO, you CANNOT "discriminate" against people whose "religion" tells them they are entitled to enslave, mutilate , or kill to force conversions.In that situation, discrimination is just another word for survival.
I hope I'm wrong, but I think I can smell an official apology and mandatory "sensitivity training" a-comin'.
It's a 'form letter' - the reply I received is exactly the same.
Yeah, I gathered...But the phrasing of the form (to me) suggests they might have gotten a buncha complaints from the 'Professional Offendees'. But maybe not... I am just hoping that ONE company won't cave in to these 7th century thugs!
Exactly. My first thought on this.
The security people were correct in kicking them off the plane.
They were incorrect in their timing.
I wrote this back on the 19th - and it fits here too.
"The Achilles heel of the liberalized judeo-christian western world - where great freedom is untempered by great responsibility. Where it is given that our enemies will use our children and grandchildren to destroy us. As was stated, the ability to perceive an intrinsic threat from people who would use every tool of our selfish and petty obsessions with "civil liberties" that have no definition, no rulebook, nothing but an undefined righteousness of personal selfishness.
This is the fight for responsible freedom, or surely the path to self destruction, for the enemies of our freedoms and vices will use methods and tactics beyond our comprehension - beyond our willingness to die to prevent, Because they are born only to die for their beliefs, and sadly we are born only to enjoy the vices of freedom, with our minds in a tiny box, blissfully unaware of the impending waves of death - or worse at our doorstep."
