Unhappy Were They Right To Object?

We all know about the recent incident where some passengers on an aeroplane demanded that they be allowed to leave the plane because of the actions of two men, who just happened to be of Asian extraction or have those men removed?

Without a shadow of a doubt – YES! They were right to object but not, as has been suggested, because they were Asian or Muslim but because of their behaviour prior to boarding and on board.

According to an eye witness who was on the same flight, they spent most of the time prior to boarding wandering around and starring at the other passengers. As the passengers started to board they hung back so that they were the last two to board. They spoke to each other bilingually both off and on the plane.

Once on board, again according to an eye witness and a RAF pilot, the two men had no hand luggage but wore heavy coats fully buttoned up. In short they were inappropriately dressed for the warmth of an aeroplane cabin.

Prior to take off they both visited the toilets and when finally seated they continued their bilingual conversation in a rowdy manner kept looking under the seats and behaving rather oddly.

No terrorist is going to draw attention to himself by such actions, as he would try to appear as normal as everyone else, so I think that these two guys’ actions were a deliberate attempt to disrupt the flight.

Their actions were the modern equivalent of the UXB in WWII.

As someone wrote to the Ceefax letters pages, on the one hand we are asked to be vigilant and report any suspicious packages or actions yet now when the general public do just that the PC brigade are up in arms.
