    So you think there was no reason for the FBI to actually pull her off of the plane to be interrogated by an FBI agent? Don't you think there might have been some sort of intelligence information out there that might have triggered that, or do you think it was just pure Islamaphobia?

    Pure phobia.. I have seen air marshals do some really stupid stuff.. Flying out of Dulles after a long layover they took the car seat of a woman flying with an infant and a toddler.. Made her put it in checked baggage.. then threw her off the plane saying the toddler couldn't fly with out a car seat. .. and their attitudes.. They absolutely acted like bullies.

    So to be clear, you guys think that the FBI got involved because of a scarf?

    I did a quick search for this woman and her story and only the Al Jazeera article pops up. This story is totally one sided and she could have said anything. I'll wait until the other side comes out before I take her word as gospel.

    Once the FBI was called? Yeah.. They accused her of having a one way ticket.. She produced a round trip ticket.

    Turkey is an accomplice of ISIS and a common transit point for extremists looking to join the ISIS fight.

    sorry, but extra questions are valid

    No they aren't an accomplice of ISIS.. Turkey has taken in over 2 million Syrian refugees fleeing ISIS.

    There are thousands of examples of Muslims denouncing terrorism. All you need to do is a simple Google search, but I know that is beyond many on the rights mental capacity.

    Turkey is an accomplice of ISIS, helps Muslims travel through their country to help ISIS, and supports ISIS.

    its all well documented.

    So basically she was pulled off the plane for being Muslim that's nice, I see a good pay day for her. And for the guy who complained about her Hijba your a nitwit and coward.

    You were saying? Supporting Palestinians means you 100% support terrorism. Nuff said.

    Many on the right will not care about this because they don't care about the rights of anyone that they don't like. They are pathetic excuses for human beings who believe the Constitution only applies to them.

    sorry, but Turkey is a major transit route for Muslims joining ISIS.

    she had a one-way ticket.

    that justifies extra questions.

    It was an airport, so ya. Try saying bomb (as in the complainant) or pull out a plastic knife to open a stubborn bag at an airport or on a plane and bad things will happen to you.

    Agreed, hell even a head scarf gets people scared, I bet the complaints about her Hijab was that it scared people to much while on a plane. She appears to have been accused of having a one way ticket, and passed the TSA screening process, per the article. She also showed them the return ticket at this point I believe they should have apologized and let her go back on her plane, but no we couldn't do that she is a Muslim she must be a terrorist.

    Wow, such an injustice done to that poor woman; the United States (and of course Israel) are fast becoming a racist, intolerable, anti-Muslim states. Just look at the picture below what are US (and, of course Israeli) Muslims are being subjected to - on American (and of course Israeli) streets!!!

    Wait just one second... that's not American (or Israeli) street... (*)(*)(*)(*)ing Belgium!!!

    That's the real point of this story. The racists and bigots who applaud this are the sort of useful idiots that the terrorists rely on to advance their objectives.
    The terrorists win when the bigots turn their own country into an intolerant (*)(*)(*)(*) hole.
    They must be laughing their butts off at how easily they can stampede right-wingers.

    That's what happens when Nazis get elected as EUMPs.

    It is a clear example of harassment generated by Islamophobia and nativist bigotry. And you endorsed that behavior.

    - - - Updated - - -

    No, keep on doing what you're doing. Beat your chest, parade your jingoism as a disguise for cowering in fear.

    That's what ISIS wants you to do.

    You fell for it twelve years ago, and all it got you was a disasterous war in the wrong country.

    Now, you and your ilk are all ready to rush down the same path that you rushed down in 2002.

    Are you really suggesting that Stanford has a 100% guarantee that no one there will ever be a terrorist sympathizer who might act on that sympathy based solely on the assumption that no one, as far as we know atm, has prior to now?

    Why is it so hard for you guys to just say "I don't have enough info to render judgment, the FBI has access to a LOT more info, so given that nothing more was hurt that this woman's feelings, i'll give them the benefit of the doubt?"



    Uhh....check the airlines and see how you plan on getting on a flight from the U.S. to Syria. I'm sure you just misinterpreted "link up", as if I was saying ISIS was in Turkey. It is common knowledge many westerners joining ISIS travel through Turkey to get to Syria. I hope you are aware of that.
