DUBAI—Before Hamam al-Hammami stood behind his captain on FlyDubai Flight 1073 and raised an emergency ax to begin the assault that nearly brought down the plane, there had been ample opportunity for authorities in three countries to keep him from getting anywhere near that cockpit.
Oman had scrutinized his online habits and decided he showed too much interest in radical ideology to trust as a pilot at state carrier Oman Air, where he worked. They banned him from flying, sent him to a deradicalization program and put him in a desk job but didn’t flag their concerns more broadly, people familiar with the matter said.
When FlyDubai hired him in February, it didn’t contact Oman to vet his experience. The company did do a criminal-background check, a person familiar with the process said. The airline later put him on the sensitive route to Tel Aviv, where he flew multiple times, people familiar with the matter said.
The US has withdrawn all of its bombers from RAF Fairford, the UK military base at the centre of an incident being investigated by counter-terror police.
A statement from a Pentagon official confirmed on Sunday it had removed its bombers – thought to be about a dozen B-1s – from the base back to their home stations in America.
US media reported a new threat led to the bombers being removed, which follows a major incident on 27 September when police were alerted to three “suspicious vehicles” near the airbase.

Western strategy in the Middle East has long suffered from a fatal conceptual flaw: treating Islamic fundamentalist movements as isolated, strictly sectarian entities. If the United States is to liberate Iran from the brutal oppression of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), eliminate the existential threat to Israel, and structurally reduce terrorism across the region, it cannot afford to view the IRGC as “the enemy” — however much the U.S.-Israeli attack on Iran has cast it into the limelight. Instead, American foreign policy must simultaneously target the Muslim Brotherhood, recognizing that the IRGC and the Brotherhood are a long-standing symbiotic, cross-sectarian alliance.
A pro-Hamas group that led a riot at the University of Washington still operates despite the United States sanctioning its foreign affiliate as a front for terrorism.

On Saturday, the Conservatives said it was ‘an insult to hard-working British taxpayers’ to dish out hijabs to those ‘breaking into our country’ – although the Home Office insisted it had a legal duty to provide them.

Coming from a Muslim family and being raised in Syria and Iran, I am all too aware of politicians and influencers such as Abdul El-Sayed, Zohran Mamdani and others who carry that same formative identity.
Americans should be clear-eyed: Islamist politicians and influencers in the United States will never place their first loyalty with America. It will not happen. Do not even think about it.
