Well if the police are right ... then may he suffer a long and painful death.

If the police are wrong, however, then for the sake of the continued survival of the flight training industry I hope he throws the book at them and utterly destroys them in court and manages to salvage some shred of his reputation.

I think wannabe's who are Islamic or of Arabian descent are probably feeling quite justifiably more pessimistic than everyone else about their employment chances this week. We certainly don't need that sort of thing being reported in the papers, before the guy's even been charged with anything.

One of the most upsetting things I've seen to come out of this disaster has been some of the daft scenes on TV, of normal Arab-Americans being attacked on the street and causing outbreaks of hysteria at US airports and so on. What a sad indictment of society
