Another incident in an ongoing effort to obtain an exemption for Muslims from the body scans that Muslims made necessary. "Pakistani lawmakers refuse body scan, cut short US visit," from DPA, March 7 (thanks to Slothy):
Islamabad, March 7 (DPA) A delegation of Pakistani lawmakers refused to subject themselves to a controversial full-body X-ray scan at a Washington airport, a media report said Sunday.The six-member group of the parliament members from Pakistan's restive tribal region cut short their official US visit immediately to return home, the Pakistani Express News channel said.
It was the first official delegation that refused to go through the body scanners since they were installed at 19 US airports last month.
Abbas Afridi, the head of Pakistani delegation, said the US State Department had invited them to Washington to discuss security and development projects in the tribal region, with a promise that they would not be subjected to body scanning.
'We were not scanned when we arrived on March 28 in Washington from Pakistan, but on Saturday when we wanted to travel to another city the authorities told us that we would be scanned,' Afridi told Express News.
'We refused the scanning and now we are returning home,' he said....
So the primadonna double dealing Pakistanis went home . . .
. . . and this is bad in what way?
What's the problem? The US extended an invitation to visit Washington with an assurance that the Pakis wouldn't have to be scanned. The Pakis then decided to go somewhere else not included in the original invitation. They should have gotten an extension of the assurance in the original invitation.
They were just looking for an excuse to be offended!
...or maybe they just didn't want any kaffir to see their jiggly parts.
So it turns out that the TSA has not granted a general exemption to Muslims for airport body scanners. As Wafa Sultan is reported via this website "...Unfortunately, she stated, after a fatwa was issued claiming these scanners violate Muslim teachings regarding modesty, our TSA agreed to capitulate and substitute pat-downs by members of the same sex for Muslims."

I had a feeling this was not correct because even after 2-3 requests on this website no one was able to come up with any substantiation of this claim.
Unfortunately this careless claim by Ms Sultan has only damaged her credibility.
Good job TSA.
'We were not scanned when we arrived on March 28 in Washington from Pakistan..."
March 28?
Must be an error with the date.
GOODBY and good riddance. But remember your religion of peace is the reason for security.
Islam has made it's bed now lay in it and stop whining.
Based on past performance, the TSA will probably exempt all Muslims from body scans. Problem solved, right?
What with:
""Pakistani lawmakers refuse body scan, cut short US visit,""
and:
"Muslim Woman Refuses Airport Body Scan- UK ‘Equality’ Industry Prepares to Facilitate Jihad"
Could this possibly be... the greatest invention ever? ;)
If this is done by an American, OIC or CAIR will call it Islamphobia. This shows how intolerant Muslims are. Anyhow, let them go back home and enjoy their life there. CAIR may be behind this. How about going to Iran, will these guys show the same excuse to Mullahs in Iran?
"Unfortunately this careless claim by Ms Sultan has only damaged her credibility."
Unfortunately this careless claim by YOU has discredited YOUR credibility.
LISTEN from 13:25..and weep.and change your handle while you're at it.

"Unfortunately this careless claim by Ms Sultan has only damaged her credibility."
You've got to be joking! YOU should have the "credibility" Ms. Sultan has!
Go Wafa! You've got 100% cred!
Incredible! Muslims are such hypocrites. Look buster - YOUR crappy, rotten, and evil belief system is what's responsible for the scanners. So, deal with it.
Great - get out of our country. Go back to your Crapistan called Pakistan. Good Riddance.
"We were not scanned when we arrived on March 28 [!?] in Washington from Pakistan, but on Saturday when we wanted to travel to another city...."
What an idiot! Of course they weren't scanned when they ARRIVED! Scanning on arrival wouldn't save any flights.
Also, since they were an official delegation, why didn't the Pakistani government provide a plane so that they wouldn't need to take a commercial flight? I'll bet Nancy Pelosi doesn't get scanned when she boards one of the Air Force planes she's requisitioned for her travels.
If you don't play according to our rules, we will take our ball and go home...Whine, cry, snivel...I don't doubt at least one of them was explosive and their plan got thwarted...Better to go home than get busted...Maybe not, but this is a 'who do you trust' game...When it comes to explosive Mahoundians, it's best to NOT trust any of them...
So bye-bye guys...don't come back soon, or at all...
"When it comes to explosive Mahoundians, it's best to NOT trust any of them...
So bye-bye guys...don't come back soon, or at all..."
So right.
So the primadonna double dealing Pakistanis went home . . .
. . . and this is bad in what way?
lol, love that, thanks for the chuckle.
They didn't want to let anyone know they were wearing frilly women's underwear under their pajamas.
"They didn't want to let anyone know they were wearing frilly women's underwear under their pajamas."
Oh, another morning chuckle - thank you!
I'll make a demographically construed guess-timate as to which "other" city they wanted to go to. hmm..Detroit? Guess we'll never know.How sad..not.
"'We refused the scanning and now we are returning home,' he said...."
So, he'd rather be groped, by another man, than scanned? Interesting. I think he should also have the option of being examined by a bomb-sniffing dog. With any luck, our jihad-prone friends would implode, seeking the best and most halal choice.
"It was the first official delegation that refused to go through the body scanners since they were installed at 19 US airports last month."
The scanners should be installed and used in all air terminals from which airplanes depart to the US...scan everybody before they come the US...and then re-scan them when they arrive...
Maybe the Pakistanis should just stay home and use tele-conferencing to make their statements...their Taliban supporters can show them how to do this...
For fifty years the Pakistani military (and latterly, some of its zamindars who, when civilian rule is temporarily allowed, are always the rulers) has been inveigling the Americans to send military equipment, money, more advanced military equipment, more money. It began long ago, with that CENTO military alliance, of no discerinible worth save to the countries -- Pakistan, Iraq, Iran, Turkey -- that received that military aid and money from Great Britain and the United States. But the belief that the Dulles brothers swallowed, and those in the State Department's Arab desk who were eager to have the American government transfer its support from Israel to the Arabs -- any Arabs would do, but especially to the Arabs in wonderful Saudi Arabia (this was in the period before the "Palestinian people" had been invented), was that "Islam is a bulwark against Communism" which turned out to be not quite true (see Nasser's link to the Soviet Union, see all the PLO personnnel given military and terrorist training in Soviet and Soviet-bloc camps) and also was a case of massively missing-the-point, for Islam is also a "bulwark" against liberal democracy.
It was the American taxpayer who paid for metallurgist A. Q. Khan's little science project and the subsequent quite expensive production of the "Islamic bomb" now possessed by the Muslim state of Pakistan.
It was the American taxpayer, unwittingly and therefore unprotestingly, who has seen his government transfer, since 9/11/2001, tens of billions of dollars -- much of it hidden in the general Pentagon budgtet -- to the malevolent and meretricious government, or rather successive governments, in Pakistan.
And now we have the Pakistanis, in poll after poll, expressing their distrust and even hatred for the Americans. Why? Because despite those tens of billions, we as Infidels are always to be mistrusted and hated, no matter what we do, and it is the failure of the American government to grasp that, and construct policies that will halt the continued flow of aid to Pakistan, especialloy of all military aid, and recognize that the historic role of Pakistan in creating, nurturing, and putting into power the Taliban has not really ended, and that the only reason there is some tentative effort by the Pakistani military, here and there, is to maintain the flow of aid from the Americans (and the desire of Pakistani military men to get their hot little hands on ever-more advanced planes, drones, and other American weaponry), and because the Taliban here and there, as in the Valley of Swat, the Taliban threatened the old order, the landowners and the traditional local leaders, and this was regarded as damaging the interests of the Pakistani ruling class, and could not be tolerated. It has nothing to do with a change in attitude toward the American Infidels, and it has nothing to do with any moral revulsion at Muslim terrorists, of the Al Qaeda or any other variety, and in Pakistan itself, there exist, and are broadly popular, a baker's dozen of terrorist groups -- Lashkar-e-Toiba, Jaish-e-Muhammad, and so on (it is again missing-the-point to tediously spend time trying to parse precisely what, in aim or immediate victim distinguishes such groups from each other or from Al Qaeda).
The most telling thing in Pakistan today, a country whose economy would collapse if the Americans and other Westerners ceased to provide aid and comfort of every kind, is the mass fury at the Americans for daring to arrest, and put on trial, and convict Ms. Siddiqui, the sinister lady who, despite being allowed into our country, despite being given every advantage, as a scholarship student at MIT and then Brandeis, despite that is having had a charmed existence, harbored her malevolence against Infidels, and allowed (possibly through her husband) such malevolence to become a hatred that made her an accomplice of would-be mass-murderers, and this is the person for whom rallies are being staged all over Pakistan, and the Americans denounced. Well, we should take this in, take it in and ponder deeply the nature of Pakistan, its history of treachery toward us, and its deep permanent hostility, and figure out the source of that treachery and that deep and to some inexplicable hostility. It is the responsibility of those who presume to instruct and protect us to not be puzzled by the world, but to understand it, and to make policies based on that understanding. And in the case of Pakistan, the one thing to understand is Islam, Islam, Islam.
Another incident in an ongoing effort to obtain an exemption for Muslims from the body scans that Muslims made necessary.
Always with the Islamic teachings that require special handling instructions for the Moslems. They are the prerogates, the exempted class, the specials.

Is this like the recent Somali immigrants who refused to be DNA tested when it became known that 80% of "relatives" allowed into the US to reunite with their families weren't relatives at all, but had defrauded the feds and are thereby criminals?
*** 66:2 ***
Or like Special Agent Gamal Abdel-Hafiz who refused to wear a wire to a meeting with Same al-Arian because it violated Islamic doctrine, thus blowing the FBI's case?
*** 4:142 ***
Instead of being deported, the Somali frauds got to stay in their nice new Minnesota condos. Instead of being fired for insubordination, Special Agent Abdel-Hafiz got promoted to head up the FBI's Saudi desk.

It's what Cher sang: the beat goes on.
Good-bye!!! Don't come back! (waving handkerchief as plane takes off)
Good-bye!!! Don't come back! (waving handkerchief as plane takes off)

Hey - listen up - Flying as a passenger on an airplane is a privilege -
NOT A RIGHT.
No Scanning, no pat down = no fly.
Capiche?
My first thought was COOL! I'll feel much safer on a plane if these Muslims and all Muslims would quit boarding plans. But then I realized that Islam has exceptions. If a Muslim has a bomb up their anal or vaginal cavity which results in the death of infidels, then such nudity is excused and you'll still get your seventy made horney by Allah virgins.
By the way, what other god, besides "Allah", promises you a sex orgy after you kill a bunch of people?
"Hey - listen up - Flying as a passenger on an airplane is a privilege -

Capiche?"
Well, to a point perhaps but it is scary the way Americans are willing to just accept these increasingly idiotic security measures which will have to continue on into the future for eternity - or for at least as long as there are Muslims in the West. The problem needs to be attacked at the core, stop all Islamic immigration and stop the spread of Islam in the West, begin to reverse what has already occurred. Eventually when Islam is minuscule or non-existent in the West we can get back to living normal lives and stop the absolutely positively idiotic security measures that affect everyone but are there only due to Islamic Jihad. No Islam, no Jihad, No Jihad, no absurd security measures. The "right" we have is to live in peace, not under the constant threat of Islamic Jihad. It is a right, not a privilege, and in order to retain that right we need to remove from Muslims the privilege to live in the West since it is not their right given what Islam is.
There's that weasel-word 'restive' again, that seems to turn up so often (along with its near-synonyms 'restless', 'volatile', 'troubled', 'turbulent' and 'lawless') in news reports dealing with parts of Dar Al Islam. (When the news report comes from a Mohammedan-infiltrated area of dar al Harb, we get adjectives like 'vibrant').
From the article - "The six-member group of the parliament members from Pakistan's restive tribal region..".
Translation - "The six-member group of the parliament members from Pakistan's jihad-wracked sharia-maddened tribal region....".
"By the way, what other god, besides "Allah", promises you a sex orgy after you kill a bunch of people?"
None.
Just letting you people up above know: It's "Capische?" "s"
Here's a headline from last year:
"Pakistan's Parliament Speaker Visits Iran"
Will members of Pakistan's Parliament refuse to visit Iran, now that the airport in Tehran has installed its own body scanners? I wouldn't count on it.
Names and pics and reason for refusing..

Well Bacchus does promise an orgy without blowing up your fellow human. An interesting fact: Bacchus was supposedly born in Pakistan.
Yup, another bunch of happy campers. Seems nobody's heard of saying "cheese" over there.Anywhere.
I guess they are too stupid to realize that you get scanned before you get on a plane here, not when you arrive.
good riddance to bad trash. Don't let the door hit you guys on the way out.
But knowing this dhimmi state dept. and the equally dhimmmi Obama, we know these people will be going to the paki tribal belts to give away freebies. obama will do anything for muslims, (but not for out of work americans).
Good riddance.
Hey - it's working!
A couple of weeks ago, two Muslim women(bound for Pakistaon of all places) refused to be body scanned prior ro rheir flight and were(rightly in my view) refused permission to board their flight.
Terry
You mean to tell me that the machine so good that it can actually see things(jiggly parts) that are microscoptic!!
WOW!I am impressed.
