The “Flying Imams” Want What???

If you thought you’d heard the last of the notorious “Flying Imams” you were just plain wrong. It seems there trial is now in the discovery phase and what the Imams are asking for might make your heart skip a beat.

I don’t have the strength to rehash the “Flying Imams” case point by point so you’ll just have to read about it. Suffice it to say that a group of disgruntled Imams represented by the New York Chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) is trouble with a capital T. As we’ve reported numerous times, the Justice Department has said repeatedly that CAIR is affiliated with Hamas.

So imagine the shock when attorney and CAIR President asked the court for this:

Omar Mohammedi, attorney for the imams, and President of the Board of Directors for the New York Chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations, went first. His motion was for the judge, Arthur Boylan, to compel US Airways to divulge its training manuals, and information on its security procedures, so that they could show that the security procedures were not followed down to the last jot and tittle when the imams were removed from US Airways Flight 300 on November 20, 2006.

That ladies and gentlemen is chutzpah in its purest form. Only in America could a group of Imams led by a Hamas linked organization demand the security and training manuals for a U.S. airline and do so with a straight face.
