A drunken Sudanese passenger tried to hijack an EgyptAir flight from Istanbul to Cairo using a knife from an in-flight meal. He apparently demanded to go to Jersualem and said he intended to "liberate" Jerusalem.
That's going to take more than a knife from an in-flight meal, I suspect, and the air marshals seem to have made short work of the whole thing. The plane landed in Cairo and the man was taken into custody at the airport. (Wonder if they had to let any bloggers go to make room for him?)
Too much raki at the Istanbul airport?
