This guy is apparently the third secretary at the Qatar embassy in DC.
I found his photo here.

I will never fly on an airplane. It’s become a joke. We need some major profiling first, and then I’ll consider. Also - reinstate cigarette smoking and stuff like this wouldn’t happen. BTW, I quit smoking a month ago, but still think all the Anti-Smoking rules are stupid.

I remember flying on airplanes long after they had banned smoking, but they still had working ashtrays. Usually they were filled with gum wrappers.

What a funny prank by this moslem.
Almost as funny as Omoslem’s “Spread the wealth” quip.

There is something called an 'electronic cigarette' and it's also known by the name 'smoke anywhere.' It's actually a nicotine delivery system that looks like a cigarette, but produces no smoke. If all diplomats would use smokeless cigarettes, there would be no need to dispatch F-16 fighter jets.

It was a funny joke....Maybe we could send him the bill for scrambling 2 F-16's, and see if he has a good sense of humor.

I suggest we return him to Qatar at 30,000 feet and terminal velocity with a note stating his diplomatic credentials are revoked....

I agree that this was a practice run. They assume that marshalls would be on flights TO Reagan National and not outbound. SURPRISE!!!!
But Denver is the home of Zazi and assorted other terrorist wannabe’s picked up right after 9/11.
We need to know more about this creep.

Diplomats can do pretty much anything a US citizen can’t....bump the line in a restaurant, park anywhere and not pay a parking fee or ticket- maybe he was under the assumption he could smoke on a plane.....and tested his Diplomatic rights.....
Wish I was a Diplomat.....;)

I’d haul him out on the runway and throw him into a turbine fan,...but of course, that’s just my form of personal justice.
