Dr. David Dao, United Airline passenger, was "disruptive and belligerent" and "defied" the cops. Airline staff treated him "politely" and were "left with no choice". He will need reconstructive surgery after he suffered a significant concussion, a broken nose, a sinus injury, and lost two of his front teeth. Fortunately for him, the airplane was still on the ground, otherwise...
It is difficult to imagine how things could be any better. The recent news reports show our country at its best. As proof of our tremendous power on the world stage, we dropped the largest non-atomic bomb ever to be dropped... on ISIS which is our own creation... in a country with whom we have maintained the longest war in our history and we still haven't been able to win...
Bombs away !!!
Middle East correspondent Robert Fisk reports, "The Saudis are bombing Yemen because they fear the Shia Houthis are working for the Iranians. The Saudis are also bombing Isis in Iraq and the Isis in Syria. So are the United Arab Emirates. The Syrian government is bombing its enemies in Syria and the Iraqi government is also bombing its enemies in Iraq. America, France, Britain, Denmark, Holland, Australia and – believe it or not – Canada are bombing Isis in Syria and Isis in Iraq, partly on behalf of the Iraqi government (for which read Shia militias) but absolutely not on behalf of the Syrian government.

The Jordanians and Saudis and Bahrainis are also bombing Isis in Syria and Iraq because they don’t like them, but the Jordanians are bombing Isis even more than the Saudis... The Egyptians are bombing parts of Libya - the same so-called Islamic State, as Isis refers to itself. The Iranians have acknowledged bombing Isis in Iraq.
The Sunni Saudis are bombing the Shia Yemenis and the Shia Iranians are bombing the Sunni Iraqis. The Sunni Egyptians are bombing Sunni Libyans, it’s true, and the Jordanian Sunnis are bombing Iraqi Sunnis. But the Shia-supported Syrian government forces are bombing their Sunni Syrian enemies... And then, of course, there are the really big winners in all this blood, the weapons manufacturers. Raytheon and Lockheed Martin supplied £1.3bn of missiles to the Saudis only last year. But three years ago, Der Spiegel claimed the European Union was Saudi Arabia’s most important arms supplier and last week France announced the sale of 24 Rafale fighter jets to Qatar at a cost of around £5.7bn. Egypt has just bought another 24 Rafales. It’s worth remembering at this point that the Congressional Research Services in the US estimate that most of Isis’s budget comes from “private donors” in – you guessed it – Saudi Arabia, Qatar, the UAE and Kuwait... It amazes me that all these warriors of the air don’t regularly crash into each other as they go on bombing and bombing." |
A Morning Consult poll winks at me from my inbox: 57 percent of Americans support more airstrikes in Syria.
My eyeballs roll. Hopelessness permeates me, especially because I’m hardly surprised, but still . . . come on. This is nuts. The poll could be about the next move in a Call of Duty video game: 57 percent of Americans say destroy the zombies.

That's on the international scene...
ISIS seems to grow stronger and stronger... membership seems to increase and increase... let's bomb 'em some more and make them even bigger and stronger
Domestically we are equally powerful...
Dr. David Dao, United Airline passenger, was featured in exciting videos demonstrating corporate control in the USA... The dystopian video of Chicago aviation cops viciously ripping a 69-year-old doctor out of his seat on an overbooked United flight, slamming his head on an armrest and hauling his limp, bloodied, evidently unconscious body down the aisle like a bag of trash.
There can be no disagreement, American is great again.
'Flying while Muslim' is like driving while black and we know how that is handled by 'law enforcement'... many innocent people are beaten, jailed and/or killed.
In 2006 six Muslim imams were removed from US Airways Flight 300 to Phoenix, Arizona, at Minneapolis-Saint Paul International Airport.
The legal process is slow... in 2009, U.S. District Judge Ann Montgomery allowed a discrimination lawsuit filed by the imams to proceed, saying, "The right not to be arrested in the absence of probable cause is clearly established and, based on the allegations ... no reasonable officer could have believed that the arrest of the Plaintiffs was proper."
2015, in two separate incidents, passengers at Midway Airport were not permitted to fly aboard Southwest Airlines flights because they were speaking Arabic, or appeared to be Muslim.
In 2016 Southwest Airlines removed a passenger from a flight at Los Angeles International Airport for speaking Arabic. The FBI detained the passenger, searched his belongings and questioned him for several hours.
Also in 2016 Southwest removed a Muslim passenger from a flight at Midway Airport after she traded seats with several other passengers.
there's no need for feelings of sympathy - here or anywhere, 'Just Go On And Shoot', that's what the police do !!! Dr. David Dao is lucky the cops only beat him up... and dragged him off -- to give his seat to someone else
