To Melanie Morgan: Re Flight 300

I am very concerned over your remarks on a television show regarding the removal of six imams from flight 300. I am sure you understand your great responsibility that goes along with your spinning of mass media programming so I will not get into that. My concern, however, is based on your choice of phrases used during your appearance on Hannity & Colmes on 12/05/06.

While America wants to prevent heinous crimes like that of 9/11 your remarks towards the imams seems to resemble that of the mobbing of Muslims soon after the events of 9/11.

I don’t understand how you could say that they we're looking for a law-suit and doing this as a bit when they were simply being who they are and exercising their rights of freedom? I hope you understand that your remarks were wrong when you said they were doing a bit to get a law-suit.

I am sure you know that they are Muslim Imams which is equivalent to a preacher in Christianity. I would also like to tell you that Muslim Imams pray five times a day at set times and that was probably why they were praying. Seriously, it is not an act. The Imams really do pray like that five times everyday and they try not to make a public spectacle of it and that is probably why they prayed behind the wall.

Practicing ones rights is never a setup for a law-suit. It is however on the contrary to what you are saying; it is VERY American to practice one’s rights even if there is fear of retaliation. If praying publicly is labeled as insensitive and civil disobedience then I am glad they did it. It is their right to pray. You need to get used to the idea that some Americans are Muslim and they have rights to. If that scares you then you need psychological help.

Yes the people we are looking for prayed before they got on the plane and they also claimed to be Muslim but I would like to tell you that you can not lump all people who say they are Muslim together no more then you can lump all sects of Christianity together; the Muslim sects are as divided as the Christian ones with both having their share of cults. Hence, one collective idea of racial profiling Muslims would be like throwing the baby out with the bath water.

Did you know that they not only pray before they get on planes but before they start any journey?
