Kuwaiti airline cancels flight plan to avoid transporting Jews

The country that had problems with Iraq back in the early 90s has no moral compass either, and has made that clear with one of their airline businesses:

Kuwait hates Jews so much that its national airline has ditched its lucrative New York to London flight rather than allow Israelis on its planes.

Kuwait Airways told the federal Department of Transportation this week that it plans to discontinue its flights between the United States and the United Kingdom. It is did not say when the last flight on that route would be.

“On December 15th, Kuwait Airways informed the United States Department of Transportation that they will be eliminating service between JFK and London Heathrow,” said a department spokesperson.

The feds were considering pulling Kuwait Airways permit to fly in the United States because the airline was refusing to sell tickets to customers with Israeli passports. The airline has at least twice refused to let customers with Israeli passports buy tickets on flights from New York to London because Kuwait has a law that prohibits its citizens from doing business with Israeli customers.

Politicians who had pushed for the feds to nix the airline’s permit say they are glad the company decided to ditch the flight.

And so am I. Nobody with half a brain should give their money to a business run by anti-semites and racists. To think that the USA under Bush Senior would battle Iraq under Saddam's tyranny, but do nothing to reform the mentality in Kuwait, which is no better.
