United Airlines suspends pilot after praising Hamas's October 7 attacks
US-based United Airlines suspended one of its pilots after he posted on social media, praising the actions of Hamas terrorists and calling them "brave people."
United Airlines, an American-based airline, suspended one of its pilots, Ibrahim Mossallam, after he praised the Hamas October 7 attacks, referring to the genocidal terrorist group's actions as "brave."
Mossallam also wrote that "the mass media is manipulated in a political and biased way to show a non-conquering narrative of Palestine."
He continued to say that the October 7 attacks, in which babies were seen being burned alive and more than 1,000 Israelis and foreigners were brutally massacred, were not "without provocation from the other side."
United Airlines responds
After causing an uproar in the United States, United Airlines announced that he had been suspended from his job.
"As of these moments, the pilot has been removed from service with continued payment of his salary," the airline said in a statement. "We are looking into the matter and his continued work at the company."
