The Flying Imams' Cheap Suit

I touched on this topic about the Minnesota Imams who were denied access to an airplane after their “actions” worried some passengers than had to board the same plane. Well, they have reason to worry and it might be a good idea for them to find some counsel….

PC And The Flying Imams
Our enemies, both domestic and abroad, know political correctness and how it handcuffs speech and policy here in America. Thank God US Airways and their customers aren’t playing that game.

Remember, when you’re around 30,000 feet in the air and terrorists have taken over your flight, political correctness is the last thing that will bring the situation to a safe and peaceful conclusion. The usual conclusion is death.

The customers and flight crew of a US Airways flight decided to take their chances and removed a bunch of Muslim “holy men” from a flight. The Council on American Islamic Relations, as usual, screamed racism.

Now let’s look at this sequence of events reasonably. According to a US Airways spokesman, “There were a number of things that gave the flight crew pause. Witness and police reports claimed the Imams made anti-American statements, made a scene of praying and chanting “Allah” (which, when I fly, is the last thing I want to hear anywhere near a plane post 9/11), asked for seat-belt extensions even though a flight attendant thought they didn’t need them, refused requests by the pilot to disembark for more screening, and three of the men had only one-way tickets and no checked baggage.

As locals, we know that we can’t make any bomb jokes in an airport today. Most in the vicinity don’t think it’s funny, including airport cops. So, we don’t make those “jokes” in airports any more. No one has infringed on our rights. That’s just common sense. Getting into a group and publicly chanting to your God just before a flight is bad timing, especially when that chant was reportedly heard by some just before airliners were intentionally crashed by some on September 11, 2001.

In all my years of flying, I’ve never asked for a seat beat extension and wouldn’t know one if I saw one. These Imams knew enough to ask for them, and not use them once received. This is not “flying while Muslim” as CAIR is alleging. This is provocation knowing what the politically correct charge would later be.

This whole episode was a set-up from the moment those Imams entered the airport. The one-way tickets and no luggage by people chanting “Allah” is not illegal, but is now known as suspicious behavior. Instead of being considerate of today’s fears by the flying public, these Muslims incited this situation, knowing what the responses would be.

Although police forcibly removed the men from the aircraft, took them into custody, and found no weapons or explosives, this smells like the set-up that it was.

CAIR is now calling for congressional hearings to investigate supposed “flying while Muslim” incidents. According to Investors Business Daily, “Incoming Judiciary Chairman John Conyers, has already drafted a resolution, borrowing from CAIR rhetoric, that gives Muslims special civil-rights protections.”

So isn’t this special. Muslims now know they can go to any airport, scare the shit out of the flying public and flight crews, and can get a congressional investigation out of it. Everyone, who was minding their own business that day, will now have their lives turned upside down because of some creeps with an agenda. As I said before, some Muslims have no intention of assimilating into the culture they chose to enter. They want us all either Muslim or dead. We can choose.

Word is the Imams will sue the passengers in their own cute way of squelching future free speech, by warning future passengers snitching will get you in trouble.

I’ve written about major corporations adhering to the “separation of church and state” mantra where Americans are concerned, yet seemingly bend over and give Muslims everything they wan’t including time to pray during the workday.
