Tampa, Florida -- An incident aboard a United Airlines flight to Tampa resulted in nine foreign-born people being removed from the airplane and left several passengers shaken. In fact, several thought the incident was serious enough that they asked to be booked on another flight.
At least 15 passengers who arrived in Tampa Monday on a United flight were supposed to be here Sunday night. However, the incident involving the nine men changed everything.

Nothing to see here.
Must have been trying to pray during ramadan. It's difficult to find East if you're not moving around the plane.
The airlines should have muzzie-mats throughout the plane to accommodate them during prayer times.
Thanks for posting this. I wondered if anyone had any more info on this. I read they were “foreign” - not sure what that is code for except Muslim.
“Luke says the fact that the men knew each other caused concern and police came on with their hands on their guns. Then, according to Luke, the police started escorting the men off the plane.”
The Force is strong with this one.....
Train Him, we must.
Did they remove their luggage?
A comment made the stewardess feel uncomfortable-like
how much are you getting on Social Security?
Second incident in as many days. I smell an Islamic rat.

Obviously, too many Americans have forgotten especially politicians in DC and in this Regime.
The airlines must be having “Book a flight, bring a terrorist friend” this week.
TSA has no problems with fake bombs in checked luggage...
Clearwater Florida...maybe they were scientologists
The Ramadan Aggression has begun, look at the incidents in Europe yesterday.
I would have a hard time not grabbing the nearest blunt instrument and laying into all nine of them.Therefore I do not fly.
No doubt!
The interesting thing is that they were able to board the aircraft. My guess is they checked in fairly late, which put their bags through the baggage x-ray machines close enough to push-back that they were able to board. But I doubt their bags were ever boarded...let me rephrase...I hope their bags were never boarded!
It worked in Spain
.
I know this is of topic but I’m staving.
Where was the picture taken?
My guess is that they deliberately let them board.
That way they can identify them by seat assignment, much simpler than asking everyone in the terminal to show their ID.
Also, little danger of them bolting and forcing an entire airport into lockdown.
Like an elevator, an airplane is a techno-trap...
We are not Spain.
Thanks for posting.
Qur’an (8:12) - “I will cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieve”
Jihad marches on.
Americans had better wake the f up. It’s time we start profiling, and quit building freaking mosques all over this nation. There is a reason why we had internment camps during ww2.
When do they file a lawsuit?
