Islamic Grievance Theater Update (Video)

Here’s a new report on those six non-flying imams who were ejected from a flight for weird, suspicious behavior at Minneapolis-St. Paul Airport, from KSTP News. (Hat tip: LGF readers.)

Interesting points:

* The head actor in the imams’ grievance theater, Omar Shahin, blatantly lies when asked if he requested a seat belt extension, and KSTP calls him on it.

* This group of imams had just attended an Islamic conference, in which one of the topics (presented by Omar Shahin) dealt with manipulating the media. (LGF has noted this before, but this is the first time mainstream media has mentioned it.)

UPDATE at 2/23/07 9:40:41 am:

Here’s the conference program, in which you’ll find (as we reported last November) that another speaker was newly elected Congressman Keith Ellison: Ellison Dances to CAIR’s Tune.
