Iranian plane loon gets deuce and nine
  • Weeping and pleading for mercy, an Iranian immigrant was sentenced to two years and nine months in federal prison Monday for threatening to "kill all Americans" after he was caught smoking on a plane bound from Los Angeles to Toronto. Appearing in chains before a Los Angeles federal judge, Javid Naghani, a 38-year-old Canoga Park businessman, apologized for violating the no-smoking rule on airplanes, but denied uttering any anti-American remarks during the Sept. 27 flight.
    Ummmm... No. September was not a good time to pick to holler about killing all Americans, no matter how bad you wanted a smoke.
