US stops British Muslim family from boarding flight to visit Disneyland

Everything is history, it's just a matter of timescale
The Rwandan Genocide had many church leaders helping the Hutus slaughter Tutsi by the 100s of thousands
The Vatican's reluctance to confront the murderers in its midst is rooted in its refusal to face up to the church's complicity in mass murder. But as Rwanda marks the 20th anniversary of the genocide, the time has come for Pope Francis to follow his own lead on !!!!!phile priests and apologise for the part played by the clergy in turning churches into extermination centres. The Vatican should accompany a plea for forgiveness with a calling to account of priests complicit in the killing.

Do you know any Christians nowadays that would act in the same way ISIS acts? (and not talking about one or two crazy individuals)...
So you've deliberately loaded the question to make Islam look worse? Why?

I dont think the children are married...
But you're right, you've seen through the whole thing. They were on their way to a terrorist training camp in LA (Afghanistan is so 1999, all the cool jihadists are in California these days). If only they took a woman with them, it would have fooled us all.0 -

Blimey, is that how you think? Not what I was saying at all.
I have never in my life, not once ever, heard of a large family group going on a family holiday and leaving all the wives at home. It stands out, that's the point. Why did the US turn them back last minute? Probably because someone at check in thought it was a bit odd too and the authorities ran background checks, hence finding the facebook links to terrorist groups.
But obviously what I said about standing out went over your head.Pants0 -

That must mean something, right?
If warehouse has never, ever seen a large family group going on holiday without a wife, it's surely for a nefarious reason.... it must be.Change is inevitable, except from a vending machine.0 -

Did it go over my head, or did you just imagine you said that? Call me an idiot if you like but that still bears absolutely no relation whatsoever to what you originally wrote...
If you actually read the article you'd know the answer to that question. One wife was ill and one looked after a child who wasn't going.
And what's with the "all the wives" thing again - are you still thinking the kids have wives!?0 -
so Callum9999 what do YOU think the reason they were refused entry is?
Do you think it was because they were Muslim or something else?0
