American Airlines mechanic accused of sabotaging plane denied bail over possible terrorist ties
A federal judge on Wednesday denied bail to a former American Airlines mechanic accused of sabotaging a jetliner in July over possible links to the Islamic State (ISIS). Prosecutors presented evidence that Alani -- a naturalized American citizen from Iraq -- has a brother with possible ties to ISIS and a history of statements wishing harm to non-Muslims.

I feel this story is NOT about unions, Muslims, or terrorists but about a disturbed individual who lacked peer review. I imagine him fuming in the break room and no one informed management. A mechanic who sabotages an airplane to pilots is like a mess cook who urinates in the soup. He should be locked up.
Duane , I didn't mean Opiates , the drug . The term is to suggest , that their Biblical Religions belief structure , gives the Faithful a sense of great joy or happiness ., and it is not drug induced . Thats all i meant . ...DGR...
I took the time to read all the comments this morning . It's all about terrorists , Muslims and religion . One fellow recalled that Samuel Clements commented that Religion was the Opiate of the people . But when Sam wrote that about the US society , the religions he refered to could only be religions based on the Holy Bible . Protestant ,Chathollic , Baptist and the like . In the 1800s' the USA had no Outside influences . Only later , when immigration was relaxed did other Religions and Faiths came to the USA , and tensions rose . I think i will leave it at that ........OK .........DGR
I’ll take people on opiates vs. people trying to kill me any day.
At what point do we get to kick PC to the curb and start using common sense when it comes to these people? With what we have to go through to get on a flight, one of these clowns can get hired to fool with our planes without some sort of vetting? Crying out loud.
Great aviator recognized the problem before takeoff. Maybe our training dept needs to include scenario in a sim period!
