Obama showing his hand and ankle a bit at a time.
The Secretary’s rationale is particularly unfounded because the flight at issue goes from New York to London; the fact that Israeli passport holders cannot enter Kuwait is wholly irrelevant. Moreover, if any entity conducts business in the United States, it must comply with U.S. law.
NOTE: Oh, btw, what would the sec-of-trans be saying, of and to, airlines refusing to allow Muslims to board their planes? (Thanks to Vlad for the thought)
Dem Politician Appointed by Obama Defends Muslim Airline that Bans Israeli Jews
Anthony Foxx was the Democratic Mayor of Charlotte. Obama called him an “impressive leader” when he appointed him Secretary of Transportation and he certainly is leading when it comes to defending Muslim discrimination against Israeli Jews.
In late 2013, a formal complaint was filed with the U.S. Secretary of Transportation (Secretary) alleging illegal discrimination by Kuwait Airways (KA) on the basis of national origin, in violation of federal law proscribing such discrimination by air carriers. The complaint concerned the airline’s refusal to transport Israeli nationals on nonstop flights from New York to London.
The Secretary denied the complaint earlier this year, asserting that KA had not violated any U.S. anti-discrimination law because the airline is required to comply with Kuwaiti law, which prohibits Israeli passport holders from entering Kuwait. As the attorney now pursuing this matter correctly articulated, “In essence, the Secretary determined that Kuwait Airways did not violate U.S. law because that airline was required by Kuwaiti law to discriminate against Israeli nationals.” The Secretary’s rationale is particularly unfounded because the flight at issue goes from New York to London; the fact that Israeli passport holders cannot enter Kuwait is wholly irrelevant. Moreover, if any entity conducts business in the United States, it must comply with U.S. law.
Its particularly galling that this kind of discrimination is supported by black Obama supporters, who are riding high on the race card. Unsurprising is that once again we see that whenever infidel law clashes with Islamic law, our law makes way for Mohammedan mores.
A sad state of affairs.
The west is becoming more and more anti-Semitic. Repulsive and despicable.
I do not know why an Israeli would wish to fly on KA anyway there are plenty of other airlines to fly with
