After the latest confession of Fly Dubai Co Pilot, Muslim Youth, Hammami, an Omani citizen, has raised many questions again in the world. That question is the relation  between Terrorism & Muslim? Why most of the Terrorists  are found from Muslim community.

The latest development in the Flydubai FZ1073 case is deeply disturbing. According to reports, Omani co-pilot Muslim Youth Hamam al-Hammami allegedly told investigators that he acted “in revenge for Gaza” and wanted to “die as a Martyr.” The reported statement comes from media accounts of his interrogation. So we can say Truth is Truth. Truth can’t be hide. This incident also proved that How & Why Muslim always involved in such type of TERRORISM acts.

It raises a fundamental question:

Can anger over Gaza by any Muslim  ever justify an attack on innocent people aboard a civilian aircraft?

The answer has to be big NO.

The suffering of civilians in Gaza can and should be discussed. Israeli policies can be criticised, international law can be debated and governments can be held accountable. But none of those grievances gives anyone the right to attack civilians or turn a passengers aircraft into a weapon. Is it essentail parts of Holy Quran or works & will of Terrorist like Hamami??

The passengers of FZ1073 were not combatants. They were simply travelling. The crew were doing their jobs. Their lives cannot become the price of someone’s political anger.

The More Disturbing Question-how the Alleged Plan Reached inside the Cockpit..

Earlier reports suggested that al-Hammami had allegedly planned an attack before joining FlyDubai and specifically wanted to work for an airline operating flights to Tel Aviv. Investigators are also examining reports that he had considered carrying out an attack earlier, in July.According to sources,he was part of a big plan like 9/11 of America ,in which Plane was crashed with twin towers of New York,USA in 9/11 /2001 in which more than 3000 civilians lost their lives.we know the fate of responsible terrorist Osama Bin laden, killed in Pakistan by USA  in regime of US President Mr Barack Obama.

According to sources ,for Fly Dubai attack,investigations are on .If those allegations are fully established, that will be ,then this was not simply an impulsive act inside a cockpit. It would raise the possibility that gaining access to an aircraft was itself part of the alleged plan.

That should concern aviation authorities everywhere.So many reports are  also viral in social media that air passengers should have right to ask the name & relegion of Pilot ,If pilot is Muslim that should be rights  of the concern passenger to travel with concern flight or not.

Reports have also raised questions about al-Hammami’s previous aviation career and claims that he had earlier been barred from flying in Oman Air & Royal Air Morocco amid concerns about extremist views & activities. New Zealand Police confirmed on October 6 that he had also completed part of his flight training there between 2018 and 2019, while Australian authorities are examining his history in Australia.According to reports ,his career was not upto mark in Australia ,so he had to  left his studies in between .

This creates a straightforward question: if credible security concerns existed in his past, did that information follow him when he moved between countries and employers?

If the answer is no, the international aviation system has a serious problem.

Captain Smit Machchhar’s courage saved the situation—but that cannot be the security plan

At the centre of this entire episode is Indian Captain Smit Machchhar.

Culture of Capt Smit & Co Pilot Hammami ..

Captain Smit Smit was performimg his duty to save lives of passengers but Hammami was tried to kill Captain Smit and all passengers.this is culture of Sanatan Hindutva to save the lives with duty & Negativity  shown by Hammami may be defined Islam.

According to reports, Captain Smit was attacked inside the cockpit but managed despite serious injuries, to open the cockpit door. Hammami  used his relgion “Nawaz Prayer” with supporting tools in the cabin .Passengers and other crew members then intervened and the aircraft was safely diverted to Saudi Arabia.Otherwise what may be happned ,its beyod  thinking of anyone. .

Captain Smit’s courage deserves recognition. But it should also force authorities to ask an uncomfortable question: Why did a wounded captain have to become the final line of defence?

Aviation security should prevent such a situation from developing. It should not depend upon the extraordinary courage of one individual after an alleged attacker has already reached the cockpit.

The “Martyrdom” claim Needs Investigation, not Speculation..

The reported statement about wanting to die as a Martyr may help investigators establish motive, but it does not answer the larger questions.

Who influenced him?

Did anyone know about the alleged plan?

Was anyone communicating with him?

Did he receive instructions or assistance?

Did he act alone?

Like these many questions have been raised .Many have to be answered.

Authorities are reportedly examining his phone, travel history and contacts to answer precisely these questions. At present, there is also part of investigations about connection with  militant & terrorist organisations of Hammami.

That distinction matters. The investigation must follow evidence rather than assumption.

Reports that al-Hammami prayed shortly before the attack have also generated public discussion. That detail needs to be treated carefully.

Prayer is Not Terrorism,but Why Prayer used as Weapon?

Millions of Muslims pray every day without posing any threat. If investigators establish that the suspect deliberately used a moment of prayer to lower the captain’s guard before attacking him, then that conduct is relevant. His religion is not.

Effective security must identify extremist behaviour, credible threats and evidence—not create suspicion against an entire community.So it should be law for all Aviation security that no any relgious acts should eb allowed in Plane.Even no any public places should be used for the sake of any relgion .

The Real Issue is Prevention

This case now stretches across Oman, the UAE, Israel, Australia and New Zealand because of the suspect’s reported education, training and aviation career.

That makes information-sharing critical. A serious security concern cannot simply disappear because an individual changes employers or crosses a national border.

Authorities need to establish what Oman knew, what subsequent employers knew, what security checks were conducted and whether any information was missed or inadequately shared.

If warning signs existed and were ignored, that must be addressed. If they did not exist, investigators need to understand why the alleged radicalisation was not detected.who are main conspirators behind this?

The Gaza conflict is a deeply complex and politically contentious issue. But whatever one’s position on it, there must be a clear line between political grievance and violence against civilians.

If the reported confession is eventually authenticated, “revenge for Gaza” may help explain the suspect’s motive. It cannot justify his alleged actions.

A commercial aircraft is not a battlefield. Passengers cannot become targets because of where their aircraft is flying. And the word “Martyr” cannot transform an attack on civilians into a legitimate political act.

Captain Smit Machchhar’s actions prevented what could have been a catastrophic loss of life. The responsibility now lies with investigators and aviation authorities to establish how the alleged threat reached the cockpit and whether it could have been stopped earlier.

Last but not the  least, Terrorism must be down and eliminated from our global society with all means, with all advocates of HUMANITY.
