Saudi Arabian Airlines Defends Discrimination Against Israelis

Source: The conservative papers.

The director general of Saudi Arabian Airlines on Friday defended his company’s decision to discriminate against Israeli citizens by refusing to fly them from U.S. airports even when passengers are simply looking to transfer in Saudi Arabia to another country, Al Arabiya reports.

Earlier this week, the New York Postreported that the airline’s website asks for citizenship when booking a ticket but has no option on a drop-down menu for anyone holding an Israeli passport.

The discovery was made by the office of Public Advocate and mayoral candidate Bill de Blasio which conducted a recent telephone sting on the Mideast nation’s airline.

When a member of de Blasio’s staff called the airline pretending to be an Israeli citizen trying to fly from JFK to Mumbai, India, on Saudi Arabian Airlines, he was told it was impossible, reported the New York Post.

  1. And they call themselves Custodian of two holy cities as well champion of Islam. While in fact acting entirely against the teachings of real Islam. Holy Prophet of Islam (saw) always respected Jews and even once presented own mosque to pray according to the traditions of jewish religion. These days Saudi Monarch is acting like anti Islamic outfit. Just want to propagate the Wahhabi Islam which God knows better from where they have invented. This discrimination also stems from this Wahhabi Islam and not from teachings of real Islam which these days only presented by Ahmadiyya Muslim Community.
