    Are people really that desperate to believe that 50 kids were pissing around to such an extent they had to be carted off a plane rather than some nonce in a uniform with a raging hard-on for Hamas used their one bit of power when a few kids sang a song from their Jewish summer camp?

    If it is true I'd imagine it was either the life jackets or the oxygen masks ... as you said, I doubt they could have done much else ... and carting them off the plane seems an over reaction ...

    According to Vueling they were ****ing around with oxygen masks, oxygen canisters and life jackets. They were told to calm down and got all gobby and abusive with the cabin crew, so they booted them off

    You know the rules when you get on a plane. You do as the Cabin crew tell you and if you start ****ing around then you're off.

    Vueling have released a statement on this now

    The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) has just issued a statement, saying that "a local tactical pause in military activity will take place for humanitarian purposes from 10:00 to 20:00 (07:00-17:00 GMT), starting today (Sunday)" in the Gaza Strip.

    It says "the pause will begin in the areas where the IDF is not operating: al-Mawasi, Deir al-Balah, and Gaza City, every day until further notice.

    "This decision was co-ordinated with the UN and international organisations following discussions regarding the matter.

    "In addition, designated secure routes will be in place permanently from 06:00 to 23:00 to enable the safe passage of UN and humanitarian aid organisation convoys delivering and distributing food and medicine to the population across the Gaza Strip."

    The IDF adds that it "will continue to support humanitarian efforts alongside ongoing manoeuvring and offensive operations against terrorist organisations in the Gaza Strip, in order to protect Israeli civilians."

    The IDF adds that it is prepared to expand the scale of this activity as required.

    Tactical pause proves Israel 'didn't do enough until now', former Israeli PM tells BBCpublished at 08:45

    Former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert tells the BBC World Service’s Weekend programme that the Israeli military’s newly announced tactical pause is “an improvement” and “proves that we didn't do enough until now”.

    Olmert, who has been a vocal critic of Israel’s military action in Gaza - and wrote in an Israeli newspaper in May that Israel is committing war crimes - says the pause comes too late.

    “Because the whole world is pissed off with us, and I think that they have a good reason for it," he says.

    “So we have to make sure that the humanitarian needs are provided completely, effectively, smoothly, without any risks to the lives of the Palestinians trying to get some food to eat.”

    So Israel had paused fighting, opened new aid routes AND is making sure aid is dropped from the air.


    Looks like Trump has serious competition for that Nobel peace prize from Benny.

    I agree mate, and how would they have got to the oxygen masks, I thought they were auto drop down, never really thought about it when on a plane tbph. Lifebelts, yeah you could get to them and refusal to move from exit seats (even if prebooked), would prevent the plane from flying at cabin crew discretion.

    I would assume when the Spanish police arrived, they would have weighed up the situation, to see if any crimes had been committed, so would be interesting to see the police reason for removing them, was it just because the pilot demanded it (which he can), and did the police try and remonstrate with the pilot (because they can) before applying any forcible removal.

    I do agree a disruptive plane can't fly, what I don't like is the accusations that they tampered with safety equipement without a shred of evidence of them having done so. Maybe cabin crew need to start wearing bodycams to back up claims against disruptive passengers, for all situations.

    The problem I have with all this is you found them guilty before any evidence has come forward, statements are not evidence unless admitting guilt or from other passengers.

    Much like I didn't find the Manchester airport attackers automatically guilty, I applied reason that something may have happened before the filmed events. I'm sure you applied that same reasoning, just not to Jewish kids. <laugh>

    I'm not finding them guilty, I'm going on what Vueling are saying

    Either they are lying or the families of those kids are lying.

    Piskie has been scrambling desperately around and held his own investigation on this matter.

    Case closed.

    It was definitely them pesky Jewish kids.

    I honestly couldn't care if they were Jewish, Muslim, Christian, Morman or Latter day adventists

    This is my issue with this incident, that it's been played out as a race hate incident, when it sounds a lot like it was cabin crew just doing their job.

    If it was just a bunch of rowdy people who'd been removed from a flight, and hadn't assigned their religion to the incident. it would barely have made headlines.

    I'm hearing now that the Pilot is being accused as training the 9/11 pilots

    Not that it's being turned into a race hate incident or anything <laugh>
