Oh and also, AGAIN, who gives a flying **** if it's "like that in Egypt" or "Worse than that in Egypt". This seems to be a worryingly common theme these days. Insisting that something is good or acceptable on the grounds that something else is worse . Enjoy your race to the bottom.

No one's suggesting it's more acceptable in the West, but why are you so much more worried about it if it happens in the West than if it happens in Egypt?

I see this more in line with a general cracking down of stupid statements on social media than a race thing; the Wild West years of the internet are coming to an end and you'd have to be a moron to think posting stuff like that is acceptable. Deporting the guy seems a bit much but he should know that aviation and terrorism go hand in hand nowadays and that someone in his position is going to be under extra scrutiny than someone working in a fast food restaurant or something.

Oh gee I dunno, it might be something to do with the $4 billion military budget of Egypt vs the $600 billion military budget of the USA. It makes the prospect of fascism taking hold there slightly more worrying. Just slightly.
