    A man, 41, was arrested in Glasgow, Scotland, after threatening to blow up an airplane with a bomb on Sunday while denouncing America and President Donald Trump. This occurred during Trump's visit to Scotland over the weekend for golf and trade negotiations.

    A video was posted to X showing a man, who is reportedly an Indian national residing in the United Kingdom, standing up in a plane's aisle, shouting, "I am going to bomb the plane! Death to America! Death to Trump! Allahu akbar!"

    As the man shouts, a passenger approaches him and tackles him to the floor. Another video reported by The Sun shows the man being interrogated while pinned to the floor, stating that he "[wanted] to send a message to Trump," who he knew was in Scotland.

    EasyJet EZY609, which was flying from London Luton Airport to Glasgow, Scotland, was forced to make an emergency landing at a separate runway in Glasgow to account for the man's threats, at which point the man was arrested.

    Passengers on the plane recalled the stressful event in statements to The Sun.

    One passenger said, "I've never seen that before. The airline staff, they were all girls, they were really shaken up by it, but they were super professional."

    The passenger added, "Some of the passengers were crying because they were shaken up. It was just a bit surreal."

    The Scotland police released a statement saying, "A 41-year-old man was arrested in connection and further enquiries are ongoing. ... At this time we believe the incident was contained and that nobody else was involved."

    The statement mentioned that the videos available were being "assessed by counter terrorism officers."

    In a statement released by easyJet, a spokesperson confirmed that "Flight EZY609 from Luton to Glasgow this morning was met by police on arrival in Glasgow, where they boarded the aircraft and removed a passenger due to their behaviour onboard. ... easyJet's crew are trained to assess all situations and act quickly and appropriately to ensure that the safety of the flight and other customers is not compromised at any time."


    The witness said that the man "literally came out of the toilet shouting 'Allahu Akbar' with his hands above his head," noting that he did not see a cause of the outburst.

    The man is set to face a court on Monday, where he will be officially charged.

Regarding the recent Israel /Iran Conflict (the "12 Day War"), culminating in the United States Air Force employing seven B2 Bombers to complete a 33 hour flight, dropping 14 fifteen ton bunker busting bombs on three Iranian nuclear facilities buried deep under mountain rock, which destroyed Iran's nuclear ambitions against Israel and the United States: Should President Trump have unilaterally made the decision to make such a bold decision to conduct this operation, without first running this prospective operation before the US Congress for their approval?

  No, The War Powers Act prohibitions, which requires NO presidential military action without congressional approval.

  Yes, the President has Article 2 Constitutional authority to take unilateral military action to protect the American People, providing he does not break congressional codes, which he did not.

  Don't care, never have.
