MUSLIM TRAVELER WAS EXPELLED OUT OF SOUTHWEST AIRLINE
An muslim traveler sometimes experienced discriminatory treatment in USA. The muslim call it islamphobia is a great problem within the country. 

Recently, an university student, makhzoomi from california university was expelled off by southwest airline while he was on a trip from california to auckland. 

Makhzoomi is an iraqi refugee and staying in america for years already. While he was on a flight, he called his uncle sharing his experience meeting with ban ki moon and uttering insya allah, language that is usually used as muslim. 

Upon hearing this, another passenger is sarcastic to him and reported the incident to the plane crew. Makhzoomi was even interrogated by FBI and exclaiming such language prohibited and dangerous in united state. Makhzoomi had to step off the plane and taking another flight to auckland. 

The southwest airline officially defended that the crew had already followed the safety procedure regarding the case. However after  the prove that he was not guilty, the airline apologized for the incident and had no intention to be discriminative in the airplane flight.
