Safety and comfort is now on the table for supporters of the Palestinian Authority. An organization that takes hundreds of millions of US taxpayer dollars, thanks to Bidem to support the killing of Jews. Their streets are lined with photos of ‘Martyrs’, animals that have killed Jews and Americans. And now, thanks to Bidem their families are all getting monthly income for the killings. Delta Airlines is now more sensitive to these terrorist.
Delta Air Lines issued an apology on Friday after supporting a social media post criticizing staff members for wearing Palestinian flag pins on their uniforms. An X user shared images of two Delta employees adorned with the pins, expressing discomfort. The user remarked, “Since 2001 we take our shoes off in every airport because of a terrorist attack on US soil. Now imagine getting into a @Delta flight and seeing workers with Hamas badges in the air. What do you do?”
Why is Delta Airlines allowing their employees to wear pro-terrorist pins on their uniforms?

In a now-deleted post, Delta responded from its own X account. “I hear you as I’d be terrified as well, personally. Our employees reflect our culture and we do not take it lightly when our policy is not being followed,” Delta wrote, as shown in a screenshot shared by the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR).
Edward Ahmed Mitchell, CAIR’s national deputy director, condemned Delta’s response and demanded an apology. “Whether this racist post on Delta’s X account was approved or unauthorized, Delta must apologize and take steps to educate its employees about this type of dangerous anti-Palestinian racism. Bigotry against Palestinian-Americans is absolutely out of control in workplaces and at schools – and it must stop,” he stated.

Delta subsequently issued a statement explaining that its controversial reaction was “mistakenly” posted to X. The airline removed its comment, saying, “because it was not in line with our values and our mission to connect the world,” according to a spokesperson. “The team member responsible for the post has been counseled and no longer supports Delta’s social channels. We apologize for this error.”
Delta further clarified that the employees wearing the pins were adhering to its uniform policy and remain employed with the airline. However, starting July 15, employees will only be permitted to wear U.S. flags on their uniforms. “Previously, pins representing countries/nationalities of the world had been permitted,” Delta explained.

The airline emphasized that the new policy aims to create a “safe, comfortable, and welcoming environment for all.” Delta expressed pride in its diverse base of employees and customers, reaffirming its brand’s mission to connect the world and provide a premium experience. Perhaps they will be flying Hamas flags next after they kill thousands more Jews.
