My old comrade Ezra Levant has a great nose for these kinds of stories, but even by his standards this one's a doozy. Meet Air Canada pilot Mostafa Ezzo:

Mostafa Ezzo is a pilot with Air Canada, flying their 787s.
That's the plane Air Canada flies to Tel Aviv.
They should probably keep him off of that route.
Just to be safe.
...
The suddenly sheepish Mr Ezzo has taken his social media offline, including the Instagram post where he says "F**k you, Israel. Burn in hell."
In its way, this is the perfect summation of the post-9/11 world:
You have to get to the airport hours in advance, shuffle through "security", semi-disrobe, have your medicines and toiletries examined, unpack all your electronic devices ...so you can be delivered onto a 'plane flown by a Hamas supporter.
The whole rigmarole of post-9/11 security theatre is endured by the citizenry because they assume that, if they're doing this to gran'ma, imagine what the background checks for the toilet cleaners and gate operators must be like.
Oh, and Mr Ezzo is also a flight instructor - which is where we came in, just twenty-two years ago, with a bunch of young Saudis telling their own instructor in Florida to skip the bit about how to land the jet as they didn't need to know that...

He probably is.
He shouldn’t be allowed on any airplane (as passenger or pilot) and probably not within a mile of an airport. Assuming the airline is aware of this guy’s actions, they’re liable should he go jihad mode.
Perhaps this pilot asked for this route.
