Paranoid mom freaks out over Iraqi passengers, delays flight
As an Arab American, stuff like this really ticks me off.
But, I don't blame her - she acted mostly out of fear and indoctrination.
I blame the zionist propaganda that's aired around the clock on our mainstream media, drumming into American minds the racist lie that all things Arabic or Muslim are a threat . . .
She was simply “protecting my tiny little family,” she insisted, adding that “all I could think of was 9/11.”
Nevermind that even Bush admits that Iraq had NOTHING to do with 9/11.
But yesterday, Leigh Robbins offered an apology to seven Iraqi men who were passengers on a plane scheduled to fly from San Diego to Chicago on Tuesday night. Robbins was also on the plane but was so terrified the men might be terrorists that she demanded to get off, causing a delay that prompted the airline to postpone the flight until the next morning.
The Iraqis, as it turned out, were consultants working with Marines at Camp Pendleton. They say they were humiliated when airport security, reacting to Robbins' concerns, took them aside and questioned them. They have hired a lawyer.
“I know they're upset, and they have every right to be,” [party admission] said Robbins, 35, a Richmond, Va., homemaker. She said she was traveling with her two young sons that night and decided to err on the side of caution.
“How can you overreact when it's your children?” she said.
American Airlines Flight 590, with 126 passengers on board, had been scheduled to depart Lindbergh Field at 11 p.m. Tuesday. In an interview yesterday, Robbins said she was sitting in the back of the plane with her children, awaiting the departure from the gate, when one of the Iraqis walked by to use the restroom.
She heard him “clunking around” inside the bathroom. When he came out, he had a suspicious look on his face, she said.
“He looked so mean, the way he was looking at everyone,” Robbins said. “It was very frightening, like something out of a movie.”
Precisely - right out of a movie - where we find our culprits.
Robbins gathered up her sons, ages 9 and 4, and demanded to be let off the plane. The crew complied with her request, but the resulting delay meant the plane couldn't take off by Lindbergh Field's 11:30 p.m. curfew. The airline was forced to postpone the departure until 10:15 a.m. the next day.
Meanwhile, airport security officers questioned the seven Iraqis and determined that they posed no threat.
One of the men, David Al Watan, 30, of Dearborn, Mich., said the experience was mortifying because they were singled out for questioning based on their appearance.
He and the other Iraqis are employed by an Alaska-based defense contractor that works with the U.S. military. Watan, who fled Iraq in 1991 and said his mother was killed by Saddam Hussein's regime, wants an apology from American Airlines.
“While they sit in their air conditioning, I was out in the desert helping to save Marines' lives,” Watan said. “I am an American. I love this country. I would die for it.”
Here is this guy, risking his life to collaborate with Zionists to plunder his nation of birth because he hates Iraqi leadership, and along comes a paranoid American to show him - by proxy - exactly what zionists think of Arabs. How ironic.
Lawrence Garcia, a lawyer for six of the Iraqis, accused the airline of acting improperly by questioning the men.
“They can't just assume someone has a bomb strapped to them just because they are Arabic,” Garcia said.
Sure they can. The mainstream media does it all the time.
An American Airlines spokesman didn't return several phone calls requesting comment yesterday.
Robbins hasn't been able to reach the seven Iraqis to apologize personally. She feels terrible about the whole thing, she said.
“I'm very sorry, but I'd do anything to protect my kids,” she said. “If people want to put me down, that's their right.”
I feel bad for her. But, lamestream media must be held accountable for their lies.
You're beginning to believe the illusions we're spinning here.
You're beginning to think that the tube is reality and that your own lives are unreal.
You do whatever the tube tells you [to do].
You dress like the tube.
You eat like the tube.
You raise your children like the tube.
You even think like the tube.
This is mass madness - you maniacs.
