Guest guest Posted August 21, 2006 Report Share Posted August 21, 2006 first there was a fellow who wasn't allowed on a plane in NYC last week because he had a shirt which had Arabic script on it and, now in the lovely UK... Mutiny as passengers refuse to fly until Asians are removed By CHRISTOPHER LEAKE and ANDREW CHAPMAN - 19/08/2006 20:29:48 British holidaymakers staged an unprecedented mutiny - refusing to allow their flight to take off until two men they feared were terrorists were forcibly removed. The extraordinary scenes happened after some of the passengers overheard two men of Asian appearance apparently talking Arabic..... ok...i'd like to get off this ride now... " Naturally the common people don't want war: Neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, it is the leaders of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. ... Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in any country.

Guest guest Posted August 21, 2006 Report Share Posted August 21, 2006 Hi Fraggle > British holidaymakers staged an unprecedented mutiny - refusing to allow their flight to take off until two men they feared were terrorists were forcibly removed. > The extraordinary scenes happened after some of the passengers overheard two men of Asian appearance apparently talking Arabic..... Unfortunately this is getting more and more common. An MP has today commented that one of the new rules Tony Blair wants to introduce concerning passports would " make it a criminal offence to be travelling while Asian " ... and I don't think he's far from the truth.

Guest guest Posted August 21, 2006 Report Share Posted August 21, 2006 HiPeter Things are getting really bad. There was a chap talking on the news. He was stopped from going on the Eye - taken away and had his bag confiscated - it contained two bottle of water and a carton of orange. He and his family once again joined the end of the queue and when he got to the front of the queue he was stopped again by the same security guard and searched for knives! It is hard to believe that this is all happening.
