Muslim women removed from a plane

I am quite upset how a Muslim veiled woman was removed from a flight in the US.  I am upset that the story is not a big story.  Imagine if a Jewish personal was removed from a flight in an Arab country?  Can you imagine the international uproar? Can you imagine how the US Congress would have thundered?  The status of civil liberties in the US have so deteriorated since Sep. 11 (under Bush and Obama), that one cringes whenever the US now hectors to the world about "freedoms".
