Ironically, the two men were headed to a North American Imams conference discussing Islamophobia or fears of Islam and discrimination against American Muslims.

Yeah, ironically. No mention of their pre-flight behavior in this article. Were they minding their own business, or were they acting loud and agitated, like the Six Flying Imams incident?

Maybe the passengers thought they were sending those Allahu Akbar signals.

And notice, they're always ready at the switch with the press conference, so they can tell us how deeply hurt and offended they are.

It will be really funny when the passengers start demanding they be thrown off of every flight.

Somehow, the pilot must have been made aware of the two passengers. It says they had already left the gate, which means both pilots were busy with pre-flight checklists, and the stewardess would have been doing the briefing.

The pilots would have been watching people board the plane, and if they had problem with the dress, they would have acted at that point, right?

So something must have happened during the time they were taxiing. And it had to be something big, because pilots don’t like to lose their space in line.

Did these men refuse an order of the flight crew in order to get kicked off to make a point? Did some other passenger start something and get them thrown off?

I haven’t found a report that mentions anything the pilot said.

No issue if all non-citizen Muslims had been deported starting on 9/12/01, and all citizen Muslims put on probation or under surveillance.

Islam is a religion not a race! To be truthful it is more of a 'cult' than a religion.

I prefer to call it a seventh century socio-political system masquerading as a religion.

No credit due to me; I’m pretty sure I heard it somewhere else, maybe on talk radio. I’d attribute it if I could remember where. It is the most accurate I’ve heard.
