It just seems like a bit much to divert a flight for one man; further why was he allowed to board in the UK if he was on the US banned list... I thought that advanced clearance was required as part of the Homeland Security policies? I was pretty sure that British Airways was onboard with the policy of submitting the passenger lists for all flights bound for the US... anyone here know more or different?

Yes it does seem a bit too much and a bit close to a conspiracy theory to think that Cat AKA Yusef was religiously profiled (he is white just like middle easterners and Arabs are white) and denied entry based on his religion while so many with the same religion have not been denied.
