Default Re: pilot fired because he is muslim

Under the special circumstances of 9/11 and Islam extremists being behind the terror acts, it was probably appropriate.

Sorry Jace - I'm going to disagree. Using your SAME logic then, what if the 9/11 attacks were committed by white-Christian Extremists (believe me -they DO exist)? Do all white-Christian pilots then deserved to be fired from their pilot positions. No questions asked?

Think about that.

You do NOT violate a persons Civil Liberties based on their religion, color.... anything.

The airline has the burden of proof here. Seeing how most Muslm's don't drink - their reason for firing him is quite week.
