Muslims removed from flight sue fellow fliers
Passengers sued over imams' dismissal from plane; chilling effect feared
Updated: 4:40 p.m. MT March 30, 2007
MINNEAPOLIS - Six Muslim men removed from a plane last fall after being
accused of suspicious behavior are suing not only the airline but the
passengers who complained — a move some fear could discourage travelers
from speaking up when they see something unusual.
The civil rights lawsuit, filed earlier this month, has so alarmed some
lawyers that they are offering to defend the unnamed “John Doe”
passengers free of charge. They say it is vital that the flying public
be able to report suspicious behavior without fear of being dragged into
court.
“When you drive up the road towards the airport, there’s a big road sign
that says, ‘Report suspicious behavior,”’ said Gerry Nolting, a
Minneapolis lawyer. “There’s no disclaimer that adds, ‘But beware if you
do that, you might get sued.”’
The six imams were taken off a Phoenix-bound US Airways flight on Nov.
20 while returning home from a conference of Islamic clerics in Minneapolis.
Other passengers had gotten nervous when the men were seen praying and
chanting in Arabic as they waited to board. Some passengers also said
that the men spoke of Saddam Hussein and cursed the United States; that
they requested seat belt extenders with heavy buckles and stowed them
under their seats; that they were moving about and conferring with each
other during boarding; and that they sat separately in seats scattered
through the cabin.
The plane was cleared for a security sweep, nothing was found, and the
jet took off without the imams.
The Muslim clerics say they were humiliated, and are seeking unspecified
damages from the airline, the Minneapolis airport and, potentially, the
John Does.

That happened. Last year, I think it was in Spain, a group of tourists
demanded a swarthy, bearded man be removed from their flight because
they feared he might be an Islamic terrorist. He was a Sephardic Jew.

I don't condone that but OTOH, Israel is a terrorist nation and has been
for decades. Jews scare me a lot more than arabs.

This guy thinks only bigots oppose terrorism, that all enlightened
folks believe that terrorists should have free reign to strike with
impunity.

Neither Catholicism nor Judaism currently legitimizes and validates
terrorism.

The bigots on the plane were not opposing terrorism.
They were making a bigoted assumption about other people on the plane.

You have proof that the passengers were "terrorists"?
Suppose they demanded catholics or jews be kicked off the plane.

Islam no more legitimizes terrorism than Catholicism or Judaism does.
But then you have made your religious bigotry rather plain now, haven't
you? So persuading you of the truth or reality will be marked down as a
waste of time.

I guess we are going to have this shoved into our faces enough times to
convert it from an imaginary thing to absolute truth.
But, I am curious as to the exact number of times a lie has to be repeated
before it acquires the mantle of veracity. Just as a matter of curiousity,
mind you.
Would it be 50,000 times? 100,000 times? Millions of times?
What does it actually recommend in the liberal ***** Propaganda Manual?
