YouTube "star" kicked off Delta flight for speaking Arabic

It's cool now to be friend with communists but definitely not to speak Arabic. How time has changed. Tragic
 
Well, when 90% of the world's terrorists stops speaking arabic then this won't be an issue. Surprised he didn't yell allahu snackbar to troll them even harder. SJW faux outrage, better safe than sorry. Go ask the poor people of Germany and France how things are working out for them.

Not even remotely close to being true, but then we know you don't give a shit about actual facts (unless you can try to twist them to support your sports beliefs, then magically data analysis becomes the only thing that matters to you, the irony obviously lost on you), just gets in the way of your bigoted opinions.

Shouldn't have tossed him for speaking Arabic. But I have not problem tossing him for being an annoying douche bag maker of prank videos.

yea, i can't see the video for some reason; but, when the article mentioned prank video, with the topic revolving around speaking arbic, all i thought about was the douchebag trying to make people think he's a terrorist bomber by throwing a briefcase or some object into a small group and running. If that's the guy, then fuck him for his videos, if he does other prank videos instead.... still. fuck him.

Instead of hurling insults, how about you show with your "actual facts" how he is wrong.

Because 30,000 Islamic terrorist attacks since 9/11 is a lot:

I can read, i just stopped caring after i read he made prank videos and moved on. As said, if it was done just because he was speaking arbic, that sucks, but if the majority of the plane didn't want him on there (from the small part i did read), it would make it worse to leave him on the plane and have them bitching or possibly worse.

His best course of action is to not use that airline again. I'm sure he has the money to make that choice.
 
This Youtube "star" is a self-professed idiot who is famous for FAKING anti-muslim videos. That's how he earns his money. This is just his latest attention-grab.

For starters, terrorist is a completely loose definition and heavily depends on who is claiming it. But even if you take a very US centric view, does it sound likely to you that Mexican drug cartels speak Arabic? What about North Korea's government?

And for some, the American government is the largest and most prevalent terrorist organization of the past 50 years.

So your "actual facts" are that you choose to define terrorist way more widely than most people? Gotcha.
 
I'm hoping that this is a case of a typical YouTube prankster trying to ham things up for views.

Because the alternative is America truly is moving backwards.

Thanks for proving my point exactly. So how exactly would you define terrorist?

Don't think the IRA qualifies? Khmer Rouge? Aum Shinirikyo? What about the various pro/anti nationalist groups (all over the world) over the years?

Don't care that we've actually used terrorist groups for our own personal gains over the years?

I'll have to wait to be outraged and disgusted until the full story comes out and not just one side from the alleged victims.

My best recommendation would be to prepare to be disgusted with just about all involved.

The reality is we were never as far forward as people deluded themselves into believing. Also this happened in England (although it was a flight to the US, and its not like modern England is much different from the US).
 
Its being discussed over at Flyertalk and at least one person was on that plane and has a different take on the issue that the supposed victim. Its a member only subforum but here is the post:

Hi all,

Am flying LHR JFK AUS today. Figured this may make Twitter or the news while we are airborne.

Waiting for the boarding door to close and then there's an altercation on my flight as a passenger is suddenly yelling he's being discriminated against...

A guy making loud claims of discrimination...and that a white guy cursed him out for speaking Arabic.

There was no loud altercation before the guy started yelling into his video camera. And there's always two sides to every story.

Red Coat said it had nothing to do with speaking another language...two young guys trying to get attention.

And they are not going to NYC on this plane.

Happy travels all.

Also:

Moreover, the source also told O’Brien that those aboard the flight were disputing the claim that he made a phone call to his mother, as Saleh claims in the video.

Edit - I thought this guy looked kinda familiar. He recently lied about flying in a cargo hold in Australia on Tiger Air. While they rank towards the bottom of my 'Preferred airlines' list I appriciate their responses:

"There are a few little inconsistencies in your production that don't line up with reality," a spokesperson wrote in an open letter on Saleh's social media channels.

"Anything over 32kg gets rejects and our friendly staff would have stepped in to assist with options, as indeed they did. We have the footage,"

"Had you been in the baggage hold, by the time you arrived in Sydney you would have been a popsicle,"

I'm not so sure it's right to be mad at Delta and blame them. They have rules saying if passengers feel uncomfortable then they (the captain) can remove a person, and I wouldn't be surprised if other airlines were like this.

If you wanna be pissed at someone (rightfully so in his case), be pissed at the knuckle dragging inbreds who are shitting themselves because he was speaking Arabic.
