Six Muslim Leaders Removed in Handcuffs From US Airways Plane After Praying in Airport
After their release, US Airways denied them passage on any of its other flights and refused to help them obtain tickets through another airline.
It's simple: when the US mistreats Muslims, it aids enemies of the US by providing those enemies with a recruitment tool. Abu Ghraib. Secret prisons. Torture. And admittedly smaller scale- but still provocative- episodes like this.
Continuing to alienate the Muslim world is not a strategy for success.
