My point exactly. This woman probably never got any breaks whatever

That she had that job at all was due to PC pressures. Algeria, as a
former French colony, has a foot in the Western world. Otherwise there
is no way she would have been allowed to fly. I am in the Middle East,
and it is amazing how women- even Western women- are treated here. But
that's another subject entirely.
