Airplane horror brings even more scary questions
By Laurie Roth
Plane disasters happen, and it is always tragic and horrific. After investigations, we eventually hear about system failures or hideous storms that cause a death spiral or failure. Rarely have we heard of Muslim pilots at the helm of a major passenger plane flying a plane into the ocean or now a mountain range. However, questions seem to be flying everywhere that cause me to spell out with a loud screaming noise "Islamic Jihad in the air."
The investigation is still unfolding with the Germanwings mystery crash in the Alps. However, what we do know already from the recovered black box and voice recorder is that the pilot was deliberately locked out of the cockpit by the co-pilot, Andreas Lubitz, a 28-year old German national, before the plane started to descend. According to French prosecutor Brice Robin, the co-pilot was silent as the plane descended and crashed. Maybe he had a heart attack in the few minutes the pilot had left probably for the bathroom, but this seems highly improbable. This was obviously a direct terrorist event at the hands of the co-pilot. The question is...was he on a Muslim Jihad, committing suicide or just a wanna be rogue terrorist?
I don't mean to go all-conspiratorial on you, but here is what we know going back a few years. We have the Indonesian plane, flight QZ8501, that went mysteriously missing December 28, 2014. The final words of the Muslim pilot being recorded as "Allahu Akbar!" My sources are www.shoebat.com and www.cnsnews.com among others. That event brought daring and real dangers to the forefront as to whether Muslims should be allowed to even fly passenger airplanes. There was no storm or known mechanical problem. Only the last words of the pilot "Allahu Akbar!"
Now, we have another major crash, obviously a terrorist event at the hands of the co-pilot, but we know nothing else. Was he Muslim? Was he suicidal or mentally ill? Was he a rogue wannabe terrorist? If he turns out to be Muslim as we dig and find out more, what should be done and how many planes should we allow going down in the name of openness and "religious freedom?" Should Muslims be allowed to pilot passenger planes? Should a line in the sand be drawn before it continues to fill with blood?
