A Jewish passenger is suing JetBlue claiming religious discrimination
after he was thrown off a plane following his refusal to sit next to a
woman
An Orthodox Jewish passenger claims he was thrown off a JetBlue
plane for trying to change seats.
The passenger had explained to staff that he couldn't sit next to
a woman due to his religious beliefs, per the lawsuit.
The man and his two travel companions had to pay to change their
flights, the lawsuit says.

Lunger took his seat but then saw that a woman was about to sit in the
seat next to him, according to the lawsuit. He "quietly got up from
his seat and stood in the aisle," the lawsuit says.
But before he was able to ask another passenger to change seats, a
flight attendant "yelled" at him to return to his seat, the lawsuit
says. Lunger explained to the attendant that he was trying to change
seats due to his religious beliefs, but she "refused to accept that >explanation and attempted to prevent Mr. Lunger from switching seats
with another passenger who had agreed to switch seats," according to
the lawsuit. Other passengers who overheard this conversation also
offered to swap seats, per the lawsuit.

Unlike the number of civilian deaths in Gaza.
Don't they see their religion as the real religion? If so, why should
they worry?
