Must not speak ill of Iran??

They sure speak plenty of ill about us
Two men accused of being disruptive on a plane were arrested at Heathrow Airport, police said today.

The pair, who are believed to be Israeli, were passengers on a British Airways flight from Las Vegas to London, flying into Terminal 5. The men, aged 28 and 33, were alleged to be making repeated comments about Iran.

A source told Sky News the men had been 'repeatedly disruptive during the flight and had made inappropriate and potentially threatening comments regarding Iran and the possible route of the aircraft.'

"had made inappropriate and potentially threatening comments regarding Iran..."

Surprised? Hey, this did happen in Britanistan.

Probably too much to drink and the effects of inflight air quality (nothing to do with "Britanistan" A.Levy, my anglophobic buddy!).

What does "potentially" threatening mean? Either the remarks were threatening or they were not.

Airline security is notorious for its lack of humor. Even non-threatening jokes about a bomb can lead to some extended up-close-and-personal time with the security crew. Based solely on what was quoted, it sounds like these two men crossed into that territory.
