"(U.S.)Federal law ....a "living" concept if I ever saw one.... says an 'air carrier or foreign air carrier may not subject a person in air transportation to discrimination on the basis of race, color, national origin (emphasis added - UP), religion, sex or ancestry.'" ....but I doubt the equality-minded folk now in the WH will see a need to do anything about this....too busy trying to (clandestinely) stir up racial division in Cmdr. Zeros own backyard.... |

#3 Actually you can't blame the carrier. I think all Saudi flights stop in Saudi Arabia, where Israeli citizens are not admitted, not even in transit. You can't force an airline to take a passenger to a destination where he will be refused. So the culprit is the Saudi government, not the airline. |

#1 “No city in the world has closer ties to Israel than we do, and yet Israeli citizens are being discriminated against right here at JFK. It’s not only illegal; it’s an affront to who we are,” said public advocate, and mayoral candidate, Bill de Blasio, Reason for Outrage explaned. |
