'Some fellow passengers are questioning why an Orthodox Jewish man was removed from an Air Canada Jazz flight in Montreal last week for praying. The man was a passenger on a Sept. 1 flight from Montreal to New York City when the incident happened.'

But this is the best bit ...

'The Jewish group B'nai Brith Canada has offered to help give Air Canada crews sensitivity training.'

That's like getting Saharan nomads to teach igloo construction.

That sucks but you know how hysterical some can get, people talking Hebrew in the way of a prayer might be seen as something else to an ignorant person... It's quite dreadful.

what they fail to mention was that customs officers later found explosive matzah balls in his carryon luggage

I suppose to some people one bearded man not speaking English is much the same as another bearded man not speaking English. Beards are one of the most well-known checks used by airport security to identify terrorists.

There was a gangsta appearing black dude of a recent flight I was on, obviously wasted or either retarded, cause he was talking real loud and used the word BOMB just a bit too loud.
They threw him off th eflight with airmarshals laughing

Another time awhite businessman said I am gonne go blow it up now, was talking about having to drop a shit but the wrong person misheard him and he got thrown off

I think that the Canadians are upset becuase their not sure what language to pray in.

ZOMG_Srsly

That's ridiculous...some people can be so paranoid about things go on around them that they'll prosecute a completely innocent man

I'm curious as to the religionistic/political bents of the passengers who complained.
