(IsraelNN.com) MK (National Union) Uri Ariel on Tuesday released the names of rebellious former air force pilots who are now employed by El Al. They were among the 27 air force personnel who signed the letter refusing to carryout targeted counter-terrorism offensive strikes.

Ariel is calling upon El Al travelers not to travel with pilots who “prefer the lives of terrorists over the lives of Israelis”. He asks that passengers inquire at to the names of the flight crew and boycott flights operated by any of the five, adding if a plane is hijacked, they cannot be relied upon.

Interesting thought about the pilots. I know that Sharon is trying to make a point about loyalty, but I fear he might going a bit too far.

Yeah. The AM removed them. There was about 5 keywords added to this thread which were, if I remember correctly, "PrincipledPilots" "Zionist Terrorism" and things like that which glorify those pilots, say Israel commits terrorism, etc.

Anyone can add keywords.

This is not Sharon making these comments. I think you were confused because this parliament member's last name is "Ariel"
