A reader called me, then sent me an email Wednesday morning about an incident that occurred Nov. 17 on an AirTran Airways flight.
According to an Atlanta Journal Constitution story, the flight was delayed two and a half hours after a confrontation between some passengers and the flight crew.
The AJC story quoted a passenger sitting toward the back of the airplane who recounted what she saw. That passenger thought it was just a problem with miscommunication.
But there's an email circulating, apparently going viral, from a Texan on the flight, who describes what appeared to him to be a practice run by a bunch of 11 terrorists:
* A guy in the front section talking by phone to a guy in the back, and both refusing to shut off their phones.
* Two in the back watching a porno on a camcorder.
* All 11 got up together to walk in the aisle.
According to the story and/or the emailer, Transportation Security Administration officials and police officers boarded the airplane. A group of 13 people were taken off. After a time, 11 reboarded the airplane, and the newspaper said . Then the pilots and flight attendants walked off the airplane and were replaced with a new crew. Some passengers, including the emailer, decided to take a later flight.
Very curious.

I didn’t know that Tariq is a pali - they’ve left that out of ALL the news reports. I figured he was a turk or something. Frankly, that makes the story even more interesting. A message sent, indeed.
I LOVE your tagline. and , me too!!!!
All the info on Tareq is here on FR. He has been involved in various Palestinian issues all along and has been part of a cabal that includes our dear leader.
See if you can find info about him on FR. I’m too untech to know how to search.
Another source claims that he was Israeli. I know some "Palestinian" arabs are Israeli citizens; has anyone trustworthy verified his status yet?
I searched, but missed that thread!
Here’s another article on the same thing.

It appears this is not just an urban legend so as many cross-references to the story the better.
thanks for the ping :)
Sounds to me like they may well be gearing up for Christmas “festivities.”
PLEASE LET ALL THOSE TRAVELING THIS CHRISTMAS KNOW OF THIS INCIDENT.
MAKE CERTAIN
THAT EVERYONE TRAVELING BY AIR THIS CHRISTMAS HAS THEIR WILLS MADE OUT AND THEIR GOOD BYE LETTERS WRITTEN.
Thanks for the link and THANK GOD FOR TEXANS!!
Hope their are still adults in charge keeping an eye on all this.:(
their=there
Do either of you have the flight number? Jim Quinn (on his radio show this morning) was asking about a recent flight (that he had received emails on) that he didn’t want to discuss until he got further information. His site is Warroom.com (there is a link on the FR homepage) and his shows are accessible by podcast (might be able to find out if this is what he was speaking of).
never mind...(should have read the whole thread) CedarDave posted the flight number...and yes...this IS what Quinn was mentioning.
Oh. My.

Here’s my thread from last night. Interesting comments.
Same story via an email today. It is evident that we have terrorist sympathizers in our government that must be voted out in 2010 and 2012. Wake up America.

FOR ANYONE WHO FLIES, READ THIS IMPORTANT ARTICLE ABOUT A FLIGHT FROM ATLANTA TO HOUSTON WHICH WAS CANCELED AND WHY. THESE TERRORISTS ARE NOT BEYOND TRYING TO TEST TSA OR HOW PASSENGERS WILL REACT TO THE THREATS AND THEIR OUTRAGEOUS BEHAVIOR. STAY ALERT STAY ALIVE.
“Where are the photos and videos of this?”
This happened during the time that electronics MUST BE OFF. Anyone taping would be in jeopardy of being removed as if they were terrorists themselves.
As much as I’d like to learn more, I doubt much taping occured.
