Don't read the wrong book during a flight!

Doncaster Airport police quiz bride over Syrian arts book - BBC News

Not sure I'd be 100% happy with the flight crew for dobbing me in like that - winner of the 'only doing my job' awards?

My guess is that even the most basic lesson taught to would be hijackers is: don't draw attention to yoursel. The fact of openly reading such a book, makes it less likely that they mean harm.

Can anyone recall a hijacker, or other black hat, drawing attention to themselves before doing their dastardly deed?

excoriated ? that's a very interesting word ! But it appears not by the airline involved.

Well, if we didn't have Islamic murderers, law abiding Muslims wouldn't have to put up with this.
Don't blame the airline, lady, blame your own nutters.

A Little OTT I think. Like we donīt have murderers from Christian and many other so called faiths. Maybe Salvation Army members should be looked at more closely.
She was reading a book on art FFS.

Wow. Basil definitely voted for Brexit I reckon.

She was profiled horribly by some very ignorant people. Desperate stuff.

You are exceedingly perceptive; almost clairvoyant

Muslims are murdering Christians and 'the wrong sort of Muslim' all over the World.
Hardly surprising if WE adopt a bit of an attitude.
Not long since an Irish accent in the London Underground attracted attention, eh?

You are correct; we don't.
Not murdering wholesale in the name of The Caliphate.
