On the other hand, check out Final Call, the mouthpiece of that terribly nice chap Louis Farrakhan who, for some reason best known to himself, our beloved Home Secretary decided to allow into the UK recently despite a long ban for incitement to racial hatred.

If security want to make more detailed checks on Muslim travellers so be it. It is justified after what has happenned. However, being thrown off an aircraft because the Capt felt 'uncomfortable' is unjust.

Birdsong, nearly all muslims want Bin Laden to be found and handed over. There is no doubt about that. Your comment regarding proof by helping out is rather uneducated, as the problem is a little deeper than that.

Some of the postings are getting or are on the verge of racism. We must be all looking back and seeing if we trained with anyone Arabic or questioning passengers who don't look "normal" and having doubts about them... please stop this ,has we will be tarnishing everyone with the same brush.


Tim Mcveigh was the guy who bombed a building .... were all white men suddenly under suspicion of becoming terrorists...I don't think so.

Just think of the people who trained these sicko's and how they must be feeling . How in the hell must they have known. What has let them down is the CIA and FBI (Not to mention the sick Bas$%^ds who funded this act).

Please let's have sensible debates !

So now it's OK to offload any passengers with a different skin color? And if one gets on the flight anyway, he is likely to have 200 pairs of shoes hurled at him every time he goes to the loo. Because he wasn't chitchatting with the person next to him, and that (well almost) makes him a terrorist. The Captain said so, didn't he? Didn't he?

And meanwhile, in the cockpit, the flightcrew is busy shutting down the engines and pointing the nose of the aircraft straight into the ground. Terrorists trying to enter the cockpit! By God, they are not going to use my aircraft as a bomb!
Little do they know it's 82 year old Martha, who on her first flight has mistaken the cockpit door for the door to the restroom.

I realise the emotions involved, but can we all just lower our heartrates a little bit?

My god, there's been some crap with racist overtones written on this and many other bulletin boards over the past few days, but the narrow minded bigoted views of some the posts in this thread take the biscuit!

Ok, so on the basis that the IRA bomb London and else where in the UK, brands ALL Catholics as terrorists right?

So beware you rednecks, next time you venture into town for a nice ruby (curry to the yanks), watch out cos Ali in the kitchen, no doubt, will be lacing your Vindaloo sauce with arsenic!

Yep, just to make sure there are no racist overtones, please review the profiles of the suspects:
