The overwhelming evidence that the
Flying Imams were the opposite of the victims the Democratic party and the mainstream media have tried to make them out to be continues to mount.
This article, by a blogger, spells out much of what IRIS posted at least a week ago. But there is one interesting new development. It turns out that another member of the spokesman's terror-linked mosque, al-Qudhai'een, was investigated for trying to open cockpit doors twice on one flight as a potential 9/11 "dry run." al-Qudhai'een also achieved mention in the 9/11 commission report for training in how to conduct "Khobar Towers"-type bombing attacks in Afghan terrorist camps in 2000.
Of course, al-Qudhai'een shared at least one practice with his better-known mosque leader: after being investigated, al-Qudai'een filed a lawsuit for racial discrimination along with a CAIR-led boycott of the airline:
The America West incident attracted national attention in 1999. In 2000, the two Saudis filed a lawsuit alleging racial discrimination by the airline. "What happened to us was based on racial and religious discrimination," al Shalawi told the Arizona Republic. CAIR hired the Saudis' attorney for them, and urged a boycott of the airline. America West won the lawsuit. Al-Qudhai'een was later deported to Saudi Arabia.
Amazing. Pre-9/11 America West was vindicated in expelling someone from a flight for attempting to open the cockpit door twice.
