KSA/RADHABy: SANTOSH | Sunday , 4 Jan '09 15:56:25 PM Reply | Forward Radha is taking an opportunity to malign a country or countries un connected with this episode which is sad. You please go and ask other non muslims whether they experience any such behaviour as depicted Radha in Gulf Countries. Gulf Countries are home for many indians of different religious beleifs and if you propogate these studpidity, the local population will definitely turn against us.

Better safe than sorryBy: Dipak | Saturday , 3 Jan '09 11:16:27 AM Reply | Forward Better safe than sorry. These guys have only themselves to blame and actually deserve to be thouroughly interogated for links with Islamic terrorists
They will be sorryBy: Saccha Gujarati | Saturday , 3 Jan '09 15:21:50 PM Reply | Forward i assure you that the airline industry will come out with a sorry, I bet you. Jai Hind
SystemBy: Deepti | Saturday , 3 Jan '09 9:56:27 AM Reply | Forward U.S. system is not paralyzed as is the case with India. Here, they pay first attention to safety of people then soothing of religious preacher.
Securities did right, well doneBy: sk | Saturday , 3 Jan '09 9:40:07 AM Reply | Forward For the US, it is a right thing to avoid a tragedy might have been happened. No body sould question it. If anything would happened, the securities would have been blamed. Four or five people without arms may be sufficient to hijack a plane, God knows.
Secuity is prime importantBy: Bharat | Saturday , 3 Jan '09 8:30:55 AM Reply | Forward Expression of faith, language, culture are to be upholded at any cost. In the same time secuity would be full proof. At least this incident should make open moderate pople's eyes wide open, if they are thinking nothing wrong in supporting or hiding information about terrorists and their paths.
facistsBy: syed | Saturday , 3 Jan '09 8:28:55 AM Reply | Forward Absolutely correct action by the airline. These very muslims go and protest the israeli airstrikes in front of the white house. these patheticx rascalss dont care about who precipitated the current crisis - only concern is about muslims.....tibet, kashmir ethnic cleansing, godhra are non -issues...but palestine and gujarat riots are biggest issues...beat the hell out of these inhuman facists.
Don't blame!By: Ramesh | Saturday , 3 Jan '09 8:08:10 AM Reply | Forward Don't blame airport security. It is those Islamic terrorists brought Islam such a disgrace low.
Treat on parBy: Shiva Gopalakrishnan | Saturday , 3 Jan '09 7:16:25 AM Reply | Forward I do not have a problem with the extra safety check. The big question is, will they do the same thing if the 6 people looked full fledged American.
Muslims removed from flightBy: NR Srinivasan | Saturday , 3 Jan '09 7:04:35 AM Reply | Forward First of all I do not know why it is said that these are muslims of south asian origin. Was it difficult to say they were of Pakistani or Bangladeshi or Indian origin? I find the muslims taking a saddistic pleasure in saying south asian orgin (in order to implicate India also when it comes to bad publicity). Secondly, due to these muslim terrorists everywhere, people like me, who is a Hindu, is subjected to scrutiny in international airports, simply because these muslims also look like us. Lastly, I do not know why make a fuss about checking these people, about whom, we know nothing. Thank god they were checked and safety was ensdured. People prefer safety, even at the cost of some inconvenience.
