Ragheads Kicked Off Of Phoenix - Bound Flight...
x-posted rec.travel.air,alt.gossip.celebrities
[WHEN will these stinking ragheads stop the cry - babying and take some responsibility for their obviously provocative behaviour...!!!???] 6 imams removed from Twin Cities flight By STEVE KARNOWSKI, Associated Press [November 21, 2006] "The Council on American-Islamic Relations called Tuesday for an investigation into the behavior of airline staff and airport security in the removal of six Muslim scholars from a US Airways flight a day earlier. A passenger raised concerns about the imams three of whom said their normal evening prayers in the airport terminal before boarding the Phoenix-bound plane, according to one through a note passed to a flight attendant, according to Andrea Rader, a spokeswoman for US Airways. "We are concerned that crew members, passengers and security personnel may have succumbed to fear and prejudice based on stereotyping of Muslims and Islam," Nihad Awad, the council's executive director, said in a news release. The six were returning from a conference in Minneapolis of the North American Imams Federation, said Omar Shahin of Phoenix, president of the group. "They took us off the plane, humiliated us in a very disrespectful way," Shahin said after the incident. Shahin said Tuesday that three members of the group prayed in the terminal before the six boarded the plane. They entered individually, except for one member who is blind and needed to be guided, Shahin said. Once on the plane, the six did not sit together, he said. "We did nothing" on the plane, Shahin said. The six were among passengers who boarded Flight 300, bound for Phoenix, around 6:30 p.m. Monday, airport spokesman Pat Hogan said. Police were called after the captain and airport security workers asked the men to leave the plane and the men refused, Rader said. Shahin said no one asked the six to leave until police arrived, when the group complied. "Unfortunately, this is a growing problem of singling out Muslims or people perceived to be Muslims at airports, and it's one that we've been addressing for some time," council spokesman Ibrahim Hooper said. Hooper said the meeting drew about 150 imams from all over the country, and that those attending included Rep.-elect Keith Ellison, D-Minn., who just became the first Muslim elected to Congress. Shahin said they went as far as notifying police and the FBI about their meeting in advance. Shahin expressed frustration that despite extensive efforts by him and other Muslim leaders since even before the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks so many Americans know so little about Islam. "If up to now they don't know about prayers, this is a real problem," he said. Shahin said the group spent the night at the home of a local imam and was waiting for a phone call Tuesday from US Airways. Hooper said US Airways refused to put the men on another flight. The airline did not immediately respond to a message seeking comment on that aspect Tuesday. The other passengers on the flight, which was carrying 141 passengers and five crew members, were re-screened for boarding, Rader said. The plane took off about three hours after the men were removed. / |

A passenger raised concerns about the imams three of whom said their normal evening prayers in the airport terminal before boarding the Phoenix-bound plane, according to one through a note passed to a flight attendant, according to Andrea Rader, a spokeswoman for US Airways. I wonder what the note said that persuaded staff to ask them to leave. If it was because the writer had seen them praying before boarding wouldn't he or she have said something then, rather than wait until they were on the plane? "We are concerned that crew members, passengers and security personnel may have succumbed to fear and prejudice based on stereotyping of Muslims and Islam," Nihad Awad, the council's executive director, said in a news release. With all due respect, fear and prejudice is based on the history of Muslim terrorism not "stereotyping." The six were returning from a conference in Minneapolis of the North American Imams Federation, said Omar Shahin of Phoenix, president of the group. "They took us off the plane, humiliated us in a very disrespectful way," Shahin said after the incident. Like what? Shahin said Tuesday that three members of the group prayed in the terminal before the six boarded the plane. They entered individually, except for one member who is blind and needed to be guided, Shahin said. Once on the plane, the six did not sit together, he said. "We did nothing" on the plane, Shahin said. The six were among passengers who boarded Flight 300, bound for Phoenix, around 6:30 p.m. Monday, airport spokesman Pat Hogan said. Police were called after the captain and airport security workers asked the men to leave the plane and the men refused, Rader said. Shahin said no one asked the six to leave until police arrived, when the group complied. Huh? How long was the plane with all its passengers sitting before the police arrived? I'm not sure about this at all -- don't staff, stewards, captain etc. usually say there's a problem and ask people to leave? Maybe, since there were six and sitting in different parts of the plane it was decided not to 'tackle' them without the police. But what about the airport security staff? "Unfortunately, this is a growing problem of singling out Muslims or people perceived to be Muslims at airports, and it's one that we've been addressing for some time," council spokesman Ibrahim Hooper said. Try addressing it with a massive series of anti-Muslim terrorist activity in every town and city in the country. Protest loudly and often. Hooper said the meeting drew about 150 imams from all over the country, and that those attending included Rep.-elect Keith Ellison, D-Minn., who just became the first Muslim elected to Congress. Shahin said they went as far as notifying police and the FBI about their meeting in advance. But this happened when they were going home *after* the meeting. Presumably different destinations for all attendees at the meeting. Shahin expressed frustration that despite extensive efforts by him and other Muslim leaders since even before the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks so many Americans know so little about Islam. "If up to now they don't know about prayers, this is a real problem," he said. Does this mean that they were seen at prayer and that was what the passenger *waited* until he or she was on the plane to notify someone about? Sorry, that doesn't make sense to me. If I was worried about something I saw before I got on a plane I sure as hell wouldn't wait until I, a few hundred others and a group of what I thought were "suspicious" people were all on the enclosed, claustrophobic inducing airplane. Would you? Shahin said the group spent the night at the home of a local imam and was waiting for a phone call Tuesday from US Airways. Hooper said US Airways refused to put the men on another flight. The airline did not immediately respond to a message seeking comment on that aspect Tuesday. The other passengers on the flight, which was carrying 141 passengers and five crew members, were re-screened for boarding, Rader said. The plane took off about three hours after the men were removed. Hmm any of them complaining at the stereotyping here -- all on a plane, after all, with "suspicious" people and so *they* had to be rescreened? yD / |
