					<description><![CDATA[Libby Blanca Alon:  &lt;blockquote&gt; Two United Airlines pilots deadheading on a flight operated by Ibrahim Mossallam after his return from a leave of absence reportedly gave up their first-class seats and spent the entire flight in the cockpit instead.

Why? According to sources familiar with the incident, they did not trust him and wanted to keep a close eye on him throughout the flight.

Sources also say United wanted to terminate Mossallam’s employment, but the pilots’ union blocked the move.&lt;/blockquote&gt; https://x.com/libby_alon/status/2107517894238351727

and 

&lt;blockquote&gt; UNITED PILOT WHO DEFENDED OCT. 7 STILL FLYING

A United Airlines pilot who described the October 7 attack as “resistance by a brave people” and said it was “not unprovoked” is still flying passengers for the airline.

Ibrahim R. Mossallam was temporarily removed from flying duties after the post sparked outrage, but later returned to the cockpit. Since then, he has continued posting strongly anti-Israel statements.

Mossallam also serves as Vice President of the Board of CAIR-New York.

I asked United a simple question: Why is he still flying passengers?

As of now, United has not provided an official response.

Watch the full report below. &lt;/blockquote&gt;

					<description><![CDATA[And tomorrow’s October 7. 

Get ready.
A day of great joy and satisfaction for multitudes around the globe who can express their sheer pride in and unadulterated support of Hamas for murdering, mutilating, kidnapping and torturing its enemies while ALSO expressing their extreme hatred and virtuous rage towards those enemies for not only surviving that murderous attack but also daring to fight back. 

Wow! A two-fer (three-fer?)…

Can’t possibly get better than that for the oh-so-virtuous…]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[&lt;i&gt;Note that the heroic passengers on the FlyDubai plane felt that some of the crew members were acting suspiciously,...&lt;/i&gt;

Were they actually suspects?

I was watching the latest season of Reacher on Amazon last night. (Not an especially high quality drama, but OK.)  Wouldn&#039;t you know, they are tracking down someone equivalent to a suicide bomber (a suicide poison gas bomber) at a point in the show.

What was interesting was something like a 10-point checklist of things to look for that might give away the behavior of an actual suicide bomber.  I&#039;d never seen that sort of thing elucidated before.  It sounded real, and not like Hollywood nonsense, though I suppose it could have been the latter.]]></description>
