One of the Muslim scholars removed from a US Airways flight on Monday today called for imams around the country to boycott the airline after employees refused to sell him new tickets for his flight home.
On Monday, Omar Shahin and five other imams had gone to Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport to fly home to Phoenix after attending a conference in Minneapolis of the North American Imams Federation. Shahin is president of the group.
But after passengers raised concerns about the imams — three of whom said their normal evening prayers in the airport terminal before boarding the Phoenix-bound plane — the imams were removed from the flight and questioned by authorities.

Scholars? Could I see some documentation? Some credentials that are meaningful? It would seem that when they get into some sort of altercation they are always scholars or musicians or religious practitioners of some sort. Geez! AND - could we get them to boycott Southwest and Delta?

Please please boycott, and please may all muslims join in boycott so that non muslim American "infidel" flyers can once again fly with some sense of well being.

Well, I guess when your faith is based on the demented ravings of a madman, it doesn't take a lot of effort to be a "scholar".
Or a "holy" man for that matter.
I mean, they venerate a blood thirsty child rapist as the most holy man in mohammedanism, how high could their standards be?

I may not know alot about islam but I do know that ALL the murders on 9/11 were islamic.Since MoHam thought of the scam, Islam has been at war with the rest of the world. There has been occasional truces called to allow Islam to regroup. You now know all you need to know about Islam.

An excellent idea! This will do more to secure our flights than all the efforts of the TSA's trolls combined.
