Recently, an X user criticized Delta Airlines for allowing its cabin crew to wear Palestinian flag pins, which led to the airline implementing a policy that will allow cabin crew to wear only US flag pins.
Obviously you should be allowed to wear a Palestinian flag pin but few people are addressing how good this woman looks from just a random picture while working. https://t.co/rxFjz3Rbpr
