I think if the captain doesn’t like you, what they say goes & it’s a federal matter.
I think the reason for the captain not liking you is secondary and could get him fired but it’s still: mess around in federal airspace, deal with the feds. Follow all instructions of all flight crew or you’re a criminal, regardless (I think).
Not actually the FBI though is it? Captain probably wanted to sound serious (mission accomplished).
So what you're saying is if the captain doesn't like you because you're Zionist they can remove you?
That is exactly correct; it's his plane.
I think he would face discipline from his airline after the fact, but in the moment, he is in charge.

There was a whole episode of Seinfeld about a pilot forcing Jerry off because he just didn't like him. Seems legit.
Yes. The captain has the authority, by law, to remove anyone (or everyone) for any reason. There is basically nothing the captain is legally barred from doing while the plane is en route.
Have zionists hijacked many planes lately?
A few thousand pagers went off, quite a few in the hands of kids.
Terrorism by definition.

Doesn’t even necessarily have to be the captain - refusing to follow instructions/direction of any member of the flight crew is a serious problem.
And yeah, if it was ridiculous or violated some other law or something they’d eventually have to deal with the consequences of that, but while in the air, what they say goes.
