Buncha dirty Jews on a Jewish airline. Nu nu. Love how the Hawaii missile test gone wrong got so much coverage when it's every day life for many in Israel.

Because it’s not everyday life for Americans.

Granted, but maybe now they'll have some perspective. People are claiming to need therapy, and that may be so.

Why does everything so quickly revert to antisemitism?
And regarding the Hawaii storry, that's not so crazy. Even when sirens made the news they happen so often it's not that exciting to report on.
Whereas Americans haven't gotten a missile warning in quite a bit of time. No?

I'm sure they will to whatever extent.  Barely compares as they don't have known enemies on the verge of attacking at any moment all the time.

Even an American Jew can't really understand what it's like until they are there. We don't fault them for it.

Not exactly a blog, though it was discussed here - http://www.airliners.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=1383665

Just curious, is this really a major story, or is it just interesting to us because it was on El Al flying between NYC and TLV and many of us knew people on board?
IIRC, the AF66 story didn't get coverage on this blog, and nor did the diverted UP flight on the way to Kiev get reported here (probably because it wasn't NYC bound)

I don't run an aviation blog. I run a US based deals/miles blog targeted to Orthodox Jews and limit the scope of postings to what I think they'll find interesting.

Lots of other blogs cover all aviation incidents.

Daily diversions to remote airports requiring a ferry flight to pick up the pax?
No.
