    Hmmm….. the goalposts seem to have shifted somewhat here. Racism is another matter altogether, and a bit of a red herring in the context of the original subject.

    Are you saying then that because Louis Farrakhan is a black American racist anti-semite, then all Moslems are black American racist anti-semites?

    He’s got more in common with the KKK than with anyone else after all, IMHO.

    TTP – please take your xenophobic slurs elsewhere. We normally get on fairly happily on this forum without that sort of thing.

    Thank you.

    Since you support the refusal of admission of Yusuf Islam or Cat Stevens (or whatever he’s called this week) despite the fact (a matter of public record, not supposition) that he has spoken out against acts of terror against the USA, would it be reasonable to deduce that you would seek to bar all Moslems from entry to the USA – just to be on the safe side?

    That’d be sure to win hearts and minds……..for the extremists. 🙁

    Hmmm…. wasn’t EC-DVE was it? It ended up as EI-CJE of Ryanair.

    Ancient, is it? Good job I didn’t mention Air Spain Britannias and DC8-21s, then. :diablo:

    What did you have for your lunch?

    I remember all of the above and I’m surprised that you didn’t mention Hispania and Aviaco Caravelles and Spantax Coronados.

    Are you, perhaps, not quite as mature in years as you would have us believe? 😉

    Oh well………….see you in November. 🙂

    I should be around on the 28th….. let’s see nearer the time. 🙂

    Sorry chaps, no pictures today – I’m stuck in the house with an ear infection. 🙁

    And there’s a CL215 due to stage through Ringway today as well……. 🙁 🙁 🙁

    As indeed would I, but the airline cannot be held responsible for the failure of a tour operator they have sold space to.

    And if Excel hadn’t de-planed the pax where would they have stayed during their holiday, and who would have fed them?

    There was nothing else that Excel could have done in the circumstances – not in the real world, anyway.

    Would you feel the same way about any and all US citizens suspected of having contributed to, or supported, the IRA or Noraid being banned from entry to the UK, though?

    Better to be safe than sorry, after all…….

    Actually, Whiskey Delta, he has spoken out publicly against terrorism – and specifically criticised Islamic terrorists – on a number of occasions. For example, when speaking about the terrible attack on the World Trade Centre in 2001, “No right-thinking follower of Islam could possibly condone such an action.”

    Being a Moslem doesn’t automatically make you a terrorist or a supporter of terrorism any more than being a US citizen automatically makes you a member of the Ku Klux Klan.

    Otherwise, I agree with Steve. 😉
