Passenger Gets Kicked Off Plane For Speaking Arabic

By


Internet comedian, Adam Saleh, shared the footage of the heated confrontation on a Delta flight after other passengers reportedly became 'uncomfortable'.

Saleh tweeted the clip saying: "We got kicked out of a @Delta airplane because I spoke Arabic to my mom on the phone and with my friend slim... WTFFFFFFFF please spread."



The footage opens up with Saleh speaking to camera in the plane aisle while appearing to be ushered out.

In the video, He says:
"Guys we spoke a different language on the plane and now we are getting kicked out. Now we are getting kicked out. We are getting kicked out because we spoke a different language. This is 2016... 2016!"
Later in the clip Saleh suggests that other passengers complained to staff because they became "uncomfortable" after hearing him speak Arabic.

He also says the Delta staff asked him to step "outside" the plane but argues that that meant he was about to be kicked off the flight.

Delta has responded to the barrage of tweets saying that ‘allegations of discrimination’ are taken very seriously.

Never-Before-Seen Photos Emerge From Inside White House During 9/11

By
Thanks to the Freedom of Information Act, never-before-seen photos from inside the White House during the 9/11 attacks have been released. The photos, reportedly captured by a staff photographer, document the reactions of then President, George Bush and Vice-President Dick Cheney as they watch the horrific incident unfold on live television on September 11, 2001. The majority of the photos were taken in the secure basement of the White House, where Secret Service agents frog-marched top government officials following reports that more attacks were a possibility. In the photos, President Bush looks tense as he converses with top officials in the President’s Emergency Operations Center (PEOC), a highly-secure bunker situated below the East Wing, which can withstand nuclear hits and ‘other devastating attacks’. Other senior government officials also feature in the photographs, including National Security Adviser Condoleezza Rice, CIA Director George Tenet, Dick Cheney’s law...

'I Left My Husband For Him, But He Didn't Return The Favor'

By
Sometimes we screw up, but we have to find happiness and strength within to get back up again. If someone had walked up to me and told me a year ago I would be a 30-year-old single mom with two kids, I would have looked at them like they were batshit crazy. A year ago, I was THAT mom -- the one who seemed to have it all together, who had it all in some ways: two beautiful boys, a nice home, a good man and father to our kids. I cooked the meals and coordinated professional family photos, planned vacations, sent out Christmas cards, etc. I had a rigid schedule but made time to run and managed to be in decent physical shape. But something was missing. In my marriage, I felt alone. Why wasn't I happy? I met my ex when I was seventeen. He was four years older than me and I was smitten. He had a job, a truck, and a house. He had it all together. We got along great so dating him while I was in college seemed like the right thing to do. And of course, after college the next step w...
