Star Tribune ^ | 11.21.06 | Bob von Sternberg

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.

Boycotting airlines (laughing).....shows how much they are in touch with the outside world, gauging by the thread response here.

The propaganda coming out of these Islamofascist people is hilarious if it wasn't so crazy.

Tell you what guys, kidnap people from every country on earth. Have everybody wanting to pile on you. It's getting to that point.

Great!


All hostile Islamofacists in America should boycott every airline, train and bus.

Then the rest of us can travel with less concerns and hassle.

Doh! The only thing "more logical" than that would be if we all were offended by this suggested boycott.

"That's like that old joke about the Mexicans. 'The Americans stole half my country.' "Which half?" "The half with all the good roads!"

Or the half with all the jobs.
