The "Palestinian" movement _invented_ airplane hijacking.

So yes, the FBI will get involved in this case. In this context it is something to worry about.

Biased much? You could have used: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aircraft_hijacking

That says:

"Airplane hijackings have occurred since the early days of flight. ...Pre-1929, 1929–1957, 1958–1979, 1980–2000, and 2001–present."

"...Between 1958 and 1967, there were approximately 40 hijackings worldwide..According to the FAA, in the 1960s, there were 100 attempts of hijackings involving U.S. aircraft: 77 successful and 23 unsuccessful....

"..In a five-year period (1968–1972) the world experienced 326 hijack attempts, or one every 5.6 days.."

And your conclusion is "Palestinian" movement (that you wrote between quotes)...invented airplane hijacking?

Looks like the first one was a Hungarian in 1919.

> In this context it is something to worry about.

Would you really be worried if someone said or wrote that near you in any context?

Short of them holding a weapon, this is baffling.

HN is generally absolutist when it comes to ‘freedom of speech’, and I don’t agree with having no limits, but in this instance it’s some overly sensitive overreaching BS.

Which is kind of ironic, considering modern terrorism was basically an invention of the Zionist movement in Palestine.

It's also completely false because they cited only Palestine-related hijackings, and not the parent article that goes back far further and proves they're lying.

> so-called “Israel”

What’s with the ‘so-called’? That’s what the country is called. Israel. But I’m not sure that you’re aware but there was a really big one 25 years ago this coming September. Maybe you heard of it?

u/fortran77 used the phrase so-called “Palestinian” movement (slightly edited since), so I simply responded with the same rhetoric :)

Of course, I somehow doubt that you would have a similarly strong reaction when Palestine is erased.

No evidence of that, of course, but your comment stands.

No that was because they hate our freedom, not because of decades of occupation and war all over the middle east funded by US taxpayer dollars.

I’d like to see a rebuttal to this comment.

Is the US now safer after the Iran attacks?
