Six Muslim imams ordered off a US Airways flight at Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport last November want to hold the airline responsible for how it treated them, one of the imams on the flight said at a press conference today at the Council on American-Islamic Relations' office in Washington, D.C. The imams filed a discrimination lawsuit Monday against the airline and the Metropolitan Airports Commission, claiming they were removed from the plane because of their race and religion.

Respected? I doubt it.
The ACLU is probably all over them right now and many judges are salivating for the case to take the airline down a peg and make America more tolerant.

GET OVER IT!
Yes, all I need to know about these six "respected (sic) community leaders" I learned on 9/11..... and in their dismal failure to take a strong and comprehensive stand against the terrorists and terrorist-supporters post-9/11.
Imams moving the entire US muslim populace that much closer to being interned in the Japanese WWII model.
Exactly - and THEN question him about how he feels. And then find someone who cares that he can complain to. If all these "peaceful, moderate moslems" would have been standing up since 9/11, putting it to the hoodlums they say hijacked their religion of peace, they most probably would not be suffering these indignities now. But the way things are now? It looks good on them.
It's about getting us to drop our defenses and fear lawsuits so that the terror can resume, here, in America.

Yes...and to make a few bucks to boot.
Oh give me one small break.
Do they ever consider the harm that Imams do on a daily basis?
FReep this poll at the Star Tribune.....

Ummm...guys? If being jostled off an airplane caused you "extreme harm", how come knowing that 19 of your own faith slaughtered 3000 innocent men and women didn't seem to impact you in any way at all?
Let US Airways know you support them.

Muslims Protest Arrest of Iraqi at L.A. Airport
A man wearing wires and concealing a magnet inside his rectum triggered a security scare at Los Angeles International Airport. The man, identified by law enforcement officials as an Iraqi named Fadhel al-Maliki, set off an alarm during passenger screening.
"He was secreting a suspicious item in a body cavity and that was a great concern because there were also some electric wires associated with that body cavity," said Larry Fetters, security director for the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) at the airport.
The Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR) denounced the arrest as “one more example of anti-Muslim hysteria.” “The police are saying Maliki’s behavior was bizarre,” said Irun Amuk, a vice-chairman for the California chapter of CAIR. “This just shows their ignorance and insensitivity. These are customary accessories for the modern Muslim man.”
The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) has offered its services to Maliki should he desire to sue the LA Airport and/or the TSA. “This is another case of knee-jerk racial-profiling,” ACLU spokesman Bertram Petty said. “How a person chooses to carry his personal possessions is no business of the state. Many people believe that magnets have healing powers. Perhaps Mr. Maliki has a medical reason for putting a magnet in his anal cavity.”
“And I see many people walking around with wires hanging from their ears,” Petty continued. “The fact that Mr. Maliki had wires hanging out of his pants cannot excuse his being singled out. There might be many valid reasons for a person to hot-wire his underwear.”
Petty declined to offer any examples of a valid reason for such wiring, saying “We will reveal these reasons if and when Mr. Maliki’s case goes to trial.”

I called and emailed my support. I suggest others do so as well.

These six should have been taken off the plane, taken to the end of the runway, given the saddam treatment, then left to rot, as a warning to others of their vile cult.
sorry for the dp.
They respect themselves, and of course the democrat party respects and admires them.
