Her basis was the lounge wasnt for praying, she had no answer but mumbled something when I said since when is it OK to sleep there and repeated her threat to call the police. I told her to go ahead and I will deal with them when they get here and then mumbled how you people shouldnt be in here any way

from the sound of things the vast majority of the Jewish passengers were following the rules and for some unknown reason the crew it seems made it out as if all of them werent or maybe the capt came to that conclusion. The crew should have taken the names of the offenders and seat #s and reported them and not simply the whole bunch. What about those who happen to be on that flight and wasnt a part of either of the 2 groups they too were thrown into the grouping

I guess its OK if a black person acts up a flight to ban all the other blacks who happen to also be flying since they are of the same color as the offender they must be together and will therefore cause trouble to get even on their next flight/s

I can send you to a couple of 3* hotels in ZRH where when I went in and asked if I could look at a room as I liked the location better then where I was staying I was told sorry all of our rooms are soldout for the next 100 years, go away, if I didnt have a yamulka on my head I wouldnt have been told that.

Next time your in Germany or ZRH Amsterdam, Paris London etc etc walk around wearing a yamulka and then I hope you live to come back here and apologize
The black person analogy doesn't really work as well here. Here you do have people who were sort of traveling together. Left JFK on same flight. Same connection. Headed to same event. Not that that changes matters so much. Maybe two tour groups or two sports teams... After all, a couple who booked separately were allowed to board. Maybe if I was traveling on the same flight as a sports team but I am not on the team. Just a fan. And perhaps wearing a hat but not uniform. Maybe I would be allowed to board.

None of this is to defend any actions. We just don't know enough at this point. And English is obviously a second language for that agent. I would not pin everything on her or what she says. Someone made a decision. Probably a bad one. But not clear why...
