Imams settle lawsuit over removal from 2006 flight.
Six Muslim clerics who were taken off a US Airways flight in 2006 after fellow passengers reported what they considered suspicious behaviour have claimed victory in their discrimination lawsuit.
The terms of the settlement were not released, and there was no apology/admission of wrongdoing.
Marwan Sadeddin, of Phoenix, Arizona, said the settlement does not include an apology but he considers it an acknowledgment that a mistake was made.

Black colleges profiled as suspected havens for “extremists.”
Glen Ford’s snarky rip on a government-funded think tank.
Don’t let the apolitical facades fool you. Virginia’s four Black colleges are hotbeds of “militancy and rebellion” and magnets for “a wide variety of terror or extremist groups.” So says a government-funded outfit called the Virginia Fusion Center, which also cautions against the national security dangers inherent in diversity. “While the vast majority of these individuals are law-abiding, this ethnic diversity also affords terrorist operatives the opportunity to assimilate easily into society, without arousing suspicion.” Safe, secure communities are uniformly white and English-speaking.
Says Glen, “The Homeland Security Department is paying these guys millions of dollars a year to give vent to their own racist paranoia – and to sic the political bloodhounds on a bunch of apolitical Black students.”
