(NBC) Delta Airlines apologized Thursday after its X account sympathized with a post that incorrectly said two flight attendants with Palestinian flag pins were wearing “Hamas badges.”
An X user by the handle “ilikeTeslas” had tweeted Tuesday: “Since 2001 we take our shoes off in every airport because a terrorist attack in US soil. Now imagine getting into a @Delta flight and seeing workers with Hamas badges in the air. What do you do?”
The Delta Air Lines X account replied Wednesday: “I hear you as I’d be terrified as well, personally. Our employees reflect our culture and we do not take it lightly when our policy is not being followed.”
That response was deleted later.
