Lol. Here's a question which I'm not sure of. It seems CAIR was involved in this at a very, very early point. Question: at what point in time did CAIR have knowledge of this affair?
I have no idea, Cachelot. CAIR are perhaps the guy's only option to get the issue into the popular conscience.
Am I right in guessing SS agents can't talk to the press?
According to an LA Times article on 12/28/01:
The agent, a seven-year veteran, contacted the Council on American-Islamic Relations to express concern that he had been discriminated against because of his ethnicity."
The incident occured on 12/25, he didn't fly until 12/26, and the article appeared on 12/28.
