Crack security teams are protecting us from the threat of scary anti-fascist T-shirts in Arabic:

An architect of Iraqi descent has said he was forced to remove a
T-shirt that bore the words "We will not be silent" before boarding a
flight at New York.

Raed Jarrar said security
officials warned him his clothing was offensive after he checked in for
a JetBlue flight to California on 12 August.

Mr Jarrar said he was shocked such an action could be taken in the US….

Mr Jarrar’s black cotton T-shirt bore the slogan in both Arabic and English.

He said he had cleared security at John F Kennedy airport for a flight
back to his home in California when he was approached by two men who
wanted to check his ID and boarding pass.

Mr Jarrar said he was told a number of passengers had
complained about his T-shirt – apparently concerned at what the Arabic
phrase meant – and asked him to remove it.   He refused, arguing that the slogan was not offensive and citing his constitutional rights to free expression.

Mr Jarrar later told a New York radio station: "I grew up and spent all
my life living under authoritarian regimes and I know that these things
happen.  But I’m shocked that they happened to me here, in the US…."

"We Will Not Be Silent" is a slogan adopted by opponents of the war in Iraq and other conflicts in the Middle East.

It is said to derive from the White Rose dissident group which opposed Nazi rule in Germany.
