#2 Five 1/2 way tickets sounds like suitable compensation.

#3 How about five to twenty in a federal-pound-me-in-the-ass-prison for instigating a hijack scare?

Or would the Imams consider that a benefit?

#5 Straight out of Jesse Jacksons playbook. Maybe USair could give them some beer distributorships.
They got their money back shortly after they were "deplaned"... that quicker than any white businessperson would get a refund from USscare.

#6 If you have a chance, stop by and write US Air a thank you note to the crew for their actions. I also encouraged them to fight the lawsuit.

#8 Oh, and wait for the discovery process to begin. We're in for some interesting revelations about these people, their contacts and associates.

#11 I can't imagine US Airways will cave. Arsalan Iftikhar has got to be a household name by now, having threatened to sue just about everyone on the planet -- including me. A few years back, I wrote a column for a college paper that contained one sentence referencing CAIR's terror connections.

Six hours after it was posted online, at a university several hundred miles from DC, he e-mailed me and the editors with all kinds of demands and threats, and threats if we told anyone about the demands and threats. I presented a pile of evidence to the editors and counsel that my claim was true, and luckily, they had a backbone. They told him to piss off, and that was the last we heard of it.

And that's all anyone has to do to put an end to this shit.

#12 Oh yeah, funny side note. I forwarded Arse's threat letter to Daniel Pipes, and he sent a most interesting reply.

My column stated simply that five CAIR officials had been arrested, deported, or convicted on terrorism charges, without naming names. In attacking this claim, Arse did name names, mentioning a Rabih Haddad who had been a CAIR official in Michigan.

Pipes reponded that he knew Haddad was a jihadi player, but hadn't been able to confirm his association with CAIR. Until he read Arse's furiously dashed-off letter, that is.

They don't call em "jihadiots" for nothng, LOL.

#13 Like I mentioned in the other thread dealing with this, US Airways needs to file a countersuit.

It is clear these individuals conspired to interfere with their flight. As I recall, they occupied 9-11 seating positions with one of them in first class without any ticketing for it. I also seem to recall that their initial 9-11 positions we counter to their personal seating assignments as well. These simple points, along with how they managed to trigger so many other separate security threshholds with their actions should be sufficient to obtain a rather damaging settlement.

Any comments, exJAG?

#16 Shit I was in that airport that day. I should counter sue!

Clearly Arsalan Iftikhar is looking to buy a fresh goat to bugger.

I posted an early story today about the Imam's Mooslum terrorist connections printed in the Minneapolis Star Tribune. Wonder if it got posted...
