well, justifying wht happend to the passengers before sep 11 would not be possible but today that is very much not the case, travelling by air is no longer a small thing, the threat to human life is very much present even though it might not be an accident.. from my own experience i know tht exchanging sets can be a very innocent thing but nowadays its not the done thing since suspicion is there.. even the common guy, u and me.. if we travel by plane and find an arab or a clear muslim(having a beard)seated next to us, we would be suspicious at least for a few minutes..it can be called discrimination but how far is that true when human lives might be at stake.. all in all, it truly is a very sad and depressing world we live in, religion and ethnicity will cause suspicion..
