not buying this:
Moti Bukjin, the Zaka spokesman in Israel, told Mako that the family of the deceased “innocently decided to send her for burial in Israel. Since they did not know the procedure, they thought they would just send her like they would a package.

Yes, this doesn't add up.
How do you send luggage/ extra large package without flying on a passenger plane?

Will air freight go on passenger planes?

I feel like the FA's are sometimes like referees/umpires. Sometimes they're within the 'rules' to throw you out, but still overreaching the intent of their authority.

The name of the game is de-escalation. Once you make them feel like they have to "prove" their authority, they became insane tyrants. Remember, they have highly stressful jobs and they are one step above baggage handlers in the airline foodchain. If you give them a reason to feel bad about themselves, they will take out all their frustration on you, especially if they are having a bad day to begin with.

You think it was anti-semitic? I guess maybe, but more likely just an FA having a hard time getting his/her kids to listen to him/her and needing some control.
