“Yes,this may not be one of those cases where they deliberately make trouble and then scream-discrimination, but I hear its done quite often to harass the Airlines and Americans in general.”
So exactly where do you hear that? A reliable source would be good.
“how come no one can sue Saudi Arabia for not allowing Christians to step foot in Mecca or Medina (it’s against Saudi Law...)”
Well I guess we could make America like Saudi Arabia. Would that suit you?
Here is one link. There are others...

This is one case. You said it’s done “quite often.”
There are more cases on line. There were six college professors for example. There have been reports that this is a strategy used by CAIR. I can google and get you some more links. Of course many cases like this are over-reactions by security. Certainly, I don’t think all Muslims or Arab looking people should be hauled off of a plane.
After USAir 1549, nobody should ask what’s the safest seat on the plane. Bad example???? The answer to the passenger’s question is right by the exit.
