Muslim on Flight told Drink 'Could be Used as a Weapon'
Northwestern University Chaplain Tahera Ahmed accuses United Airlines of Islamophobia after a flight attendant refused to serve her a soda in a closed can, saying she could use it as a weapon. She says: "As a Muslim living in the US post 9/11, this was not about a can of diet soda, this was about bigotry and stereotyping." United Airlines says it is investigating.
