The world was riveted yesterday by the story of the FlyDubai fight, where the Omani co-pilot stabbed the captain in an attempt to hijack the plane, which was full of Israeli citizens returning to Tel Aviv. That brave captain was able to unlock the cockpit door despite being critically wounded. That allowed passengers to storm the cockpit and take control of the aircraft.
It landed safely in Saudi Arabia before continuing to Israel. The plane, which plummeted thousands of feet in less than a minute, suffered damage to the vertical rudder on the tail, too. It's an incredible testament to the passengers' bravery that the outcome wasn't far more tragic.
But there's a story worth discussing related to that thwarted terror attack. Osama Siblani held a fundraiser for Michigan Democrat and U.S. Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed last week. That raised more than $350,000 for El-Sayed.
But now Siblani is claiming that the terror attack was "fabricated" by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to help him in upcoming elections.

The post reads:
The Mysterious FlyDubai Plane Fabrication!
- Netanyahu's visit two days ago and his meeting with bin Zayed in Abu Dhabi, in the presence of Saudi officials.
- U.S. Attorney General: We are coordinating closely with our counterparts abroad regarding the FlyDubai plane "incident."
- A conversation between U.S. President Donald Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is expected to take place in the coming hours, against the backdrop of the attempted "hijacking of the plane."
- Trump: Soon, you will notice that certain things will happen regarding Iran.
- Netanyahu: Before arriving in New York to vomit from the podium of the United Nations and hurl insults at members of the General Assembly, he said something would happen in Iran soon.
In other words, the plot has to be cooked before the midterm elections here in the United States and the Israeli Knesset elections at the end of October.
You see, what was hidden ... is no longer hidden.
Or how else can it be explained? We shall see in the coming days.
There's a much simpler explanation for this: an anti-Israel, antisemitic Islamist stabbed the plane's captain in an effort to kill 170 Israelis.
He miscalculated how brave the passengers were and he failed.
This wasn't some grand conspiracy, but you can't tell that to Siblani, who is also an outspoken supporter of Hamas.
This is the fundraiser for El-Sayed. He snuck off to Dearborn after campaigning with Kamala Harris for the fundraiser with Siblani, an outspoken Hamas supporter https://t.co/KkLQ7z7zFU

If Siblani's name sounds familiar, it's because a street in Dearborn is named for him.
Siblani calling the FlyDubai incident a "fabrication" to help Netanyahu in the upcoming elections shows 2 things:

1. Not going to deal with terrorism or terrorist ideology. In fact, he praises it.
2. It’s how to get a street named after you in Dearborn. pic.twitter.com/ttIHK8hQ5y
Will anyone ask the El-Sayed campaign about this?
🚨INSANE: Osama Siblani, the pro-Hamas activist who raised nearly $500,000 for Abdul El-Sayed at a fundraiser last week, says the FlyDubai terrorist attack was a "fabrication" to help Netanyahu in upcoming elections. Abdul El-Sayed is surrounded by extremists who love terrorism. pic.twitter.com/xmWMdwEtFH

This is insane, and disqualifying.
