Muslim family kicked off United Airlines flight for how they looked'

April 2, 2016

New York, Apr 2: A United Airlines pilot asked a Muslim family of five to leave a plane before it took off, citing "safety" issues.

Eaman-Amy Saad Shebley, her husband and three young children were about to take off on a flight bound for Washington at a Chicago airport when the pilot asked them to get off the aircraft.

plane The family had enquired earlier whether the air stewardess could provide five-point harness safety seats for their children.

Two videos filmed by Shebley show the air stewardess and then the pilot asking the family to leave.

Ms Shebley asked the pilot whether it was a "discriminatory" decision. The pilot replied it was a "flight safety issue" but were not given any details.

The Council on American-Islamic Relations sent a letter to United Airlines on the family's behalf demanding disciplinary action against the staff involved.

"We are tired of Muslim-looking passengers being removed from flights for the flimsiest reasons, under a cryptic claim of 'security'," said CAIR-Chicago executive director Ahmed Rehab said in a statement. "Security means securing passengers, not harassing and humiliating them and booting them off their flight for, of all things, actually asking for security."

Shebley wrote on Facebook: "Shame on you ?#?unitedAirlines? for profiling my family and me for no reason other than how we look and kicking us off the plane for "safety flight issues" on our flight to DC for the kids spring break. My three kids are too young to have experienced this."

Another Muslim woman and a Northwestern University chaplain, Tagera Ahmad, was denied a can of diet coke onboard a United Airlines flight in May as the flight attendant said she "may use it as a weapon".

The airline apologised multiple times to Shebley's family after they got off the plane and were rebooked on another flight.

In a statement to BuzzFeed News, United Airlines said the family was rebooked "on a later flight because of concerns about their child's safety seat, which did not comply with federal safety regulations" and said the airline has "zero tolerance for discrimination".

Guyz take it positively. I mean think of it - we Muslims didn't do anything wrong, they accused us of terrorism, they set up the stage to create fear of Islam and it falls back on its own people - they fear us for nothing..!!

There was another news about the same United Airlines that a Man wanted to do Yoga (?) on flight, and threatened to kill passengers if not allowed.
Dear Muslims, please understand
#YOGA HAS NO TERRORISM ..!
#Not All YOGIs are Terrorists, But All Terrorists are SANGHIS..\

Ouch..that hurts :-P"

# 8 JOHN...

Please Read BIBLE...dear
1 Corinthians 11:5-6
-----------------------------
But every Wife who prays or prophesies with her HEAD UNcovered DISHONORS her HEAD, Since it is the same as if Her HEAD were SHAVEN. For if a Wife will not cover her HEAD, then she should cut HER HAIR SHORT. But since it is DISGRACEFUL for a wife to cut off her hair or shave her head, LET HER COVER HER HEAD.

Dear Ram,
This is called MEDIA mind wash... and U r a victim of it...
Many times cheddis were caught doing the same act which was blamed by the authorities who control the media. Many people like you are fooled to believe what is said in the Media.
When people like U, doesnt think and follow blindly what is said in the MEDIA .... it shows how your thinking lies..

Dear Suman,

Don't be afraid of MUSLIM, but afraid of GOD(ALLAH)...who created you & me..

Dear So called RAM ........if your RAM would live ...he would cruch united Airlines company in Bin...its people like you who follow Trum with saffron Trumpet..................who polluted RAM's name

We Muslims expect this ... cos the World all over are ignorant of the TRUTH and the GOD that created us and all.
The only thing they believe is what is said in the media...
Dear Mankind ...
ALLAH says in QURAN that he is the LORD of the heavens and the EArth which U are living...
QURAN : READ it, verify it and REsEARCH it...
When U believe the MEDIA why cant U look at what Our CREATOR says in the QURAN...JUST LOOK and try to understand what YOUr and my CREATOR says to US.
Believe only after U read it.. We are not asking you to believe just like what MEDIA does to U guys which forces U to believe what is said in IT.
ALLAH says mankind is the intelligent CREATION of his creation... It will be PROVED when we look WHO is our LORD... it is better to look once to QURAN rather than stay like animals without looking what our CREATOR says.

Mangaluru: 10-month-old corona patient recovers, discharged along with mother

News Network

April 12,2020

Mangaluru, Apr 12: A 10-month-old baby who tested COVID-19 positive on March 27 completed treatment and discharged from hospital on Saturday.

He was the youngest positive case in Karnataka, from Sajipanadu village in Bantwal taluk.

The child had been with his mother to a relative's house at Monetepadau village, situated on the Karnataka-Kerala border in the first week of March.

A few days later the child developed an acute respiratory illness and tested positive for the COVID-19 virus.

Treating the breastfeeding child was challenging for doctors as he had to be isolated. A team of doctors from Wenlock Hospital took up this challenge and successfully cured the baby.

Test reports on his mother and grandmother too have returned negative. They too had been under quarantine and were discharged with the baby.

Another positive development was that no COVID-19 case has been reported from the child's village.

The entire Sajipanadu village was completely sealed after the child tested positive and the district had provided all the necessary supplies to the villagers.

This would have been a false flag operation, if he was not caught, they would have been an explosions and Dr.police would have put muslim youths behind bars...or that was the intention/plan but due to unforseen reasons failed......i hope someone comes out with the truth..

if he were to be a muslim, he would have benn branded terrorist. revenge and all these expalnations are just excuses. investigate from where an dhow he got bombs.

Bomb has weaken once bomber name appears. Now time for fact finding, family emotions, personal attachments etc. If he was Muslim it would have connected to ISIS, Anti-CAA, Pakistan, Kerala..
