From the self-declared "World's Only Reliable Newspaper" (known at Rantburg as "the most trusted voice in major media.")TERRORISTS have formed their own airline -- because they're afraid of getting on a plane that could be hijacked by other terrorists!
That's the incredible claim made by Amir Humad, a Saudi terrorist who was recently captured and is being held in a top-secret location.
"No one's going to hijack a plane when everyone else on the plane is a crazed terrorist," Humad says. "Sure, terrorists are crazy, but we're not crazy enough to get on a plane that might be hijacked."
Ironically, El-Al Queda, as the new airline is called, is the result of increased security on other airlines.
"It's hard to be a good terrorist when you can't even take a pair of box cutters on a plane," Humad says.
In fact, El-Al Queda has a very different approach to security.
"If you're NOT carrying a bomb or a weapon, it's hard to get on," an El-Al Queda baggage handler says. "We're in the business of spreading WMDs. We can't give seats to every little terroristwannabe."
And in the event a bomb does go off, blowing up the plane, the terrorists say there's no way to know which bomb caused it -- so each of the terrorists would get the 72 virgins they're promised when they go to heaven as a martyr.
"It's a win-win situation," says Humad.
They have their own newspapers, television networks, and universities, so why not an airline?
