Sources inside American Airlines tell me that the airline has no intention of settling last week's lawsuit filed in U.S. district court. David Al-Watan, Talal Cholagh, Ali Alzerej, Hassan Alzerej, Hussein Alsalih and Mohammad Al-Saedy are seeking "hundreds of thousands of dollars" in damages for racial profiling.
This 12-page police report explains why American Airlines should never pay these men a dime. It also explains why several names should be added to the 800,000+ name no-fly list if they haven't been added already.
Aviation security is a national security issue. There should be a zero tolerance policy in effect for anyone who acts like a bully in airports and on airplanes. Shame on the attorneys who represent people like this and shame on the journalists and news organizations who belittled the female passenger who opted out of having her kids bullied by a drunk actor named Dave Al-Watan. (Each flight attendant interviewed by the police felt the behavior of Al-Watan and his cohorts was belligerent, as did at least one other male passenger interview by police).
The men, it turns out, had been hired by the U.S. Military as "authentic Iraqi" actors in Iraq-war, "role-playing scenarios." I asked a U.S. Federal Air Marshal what this meant: "Most likely these guys were at Ft. Irwin playing terrorists and insurgents," he said.
They should have left their role-playing at the army base. Instead, they tried auditioning for FOX news (see police report page 3).
Yeah for American Airlines. Don’t surrender to these wannebe terrorists thugs!
PC liberal-speak is going to get us killed. The term ‘racial profiling’ has been made to be a worse ‘sin’ to the PC religion than flying planes into the WTC and killing thousands.

When o when are we going to stand up and shout, “ENOUGH.” And be willing to stand behind what we say, Pc madness will be our end if we don’t correct the problem.
Muslim is a race?
Yeah, this muslim sure is straying a little. I wonder what means these persons have to, no doubt be able to afford travel etc.?
In short what productive work do they do?
Someone has to make a stand. The airline appear to be doing that.
“It also explains why several names should be added to the 800,000+ name no-fly list if they haven’t been added already.”
If the 800,000 on the list constitute a risk to airplane travel, they are also a risk to the security of the country. Deportation of the 800,000 is the only rational solution.
(are Americans), I meant “are in America”. Not sure of their status.
Well said.
