Title: Antisemitism on Boeing 737?
Post by: Rational Jew on June 04, 2013, 08:57:45 PM
I don't like throwing 'antisemitism card', but something about this case seems very suspicious to me. Imagine if the students were not Jewish (or heck, if the students were black, hispanic, or muslim)

I agree but let's not forget how TERRIBLY some students behave these days: Jewish or not Jewish.  I remember my own behavior 20 years ago and it was not great.  I was a good kid, but with my friends I have no doubt that I could have been a brat or a**h**ish

Seriously? You really think that if a large number of non-Jewish teenagers refused to listen to the crew of an airliner, the captain would just shrug his shoulders, say "kids, what are gonna do?", and continue the flight? It was only because of antisemitism that the teenagers were thrown off the airplane?
