I personally think the two asian youths were deliberately pissing about and raising concerns for the other passengers.  They were apparantly acting somewhat suspicious; taking out and putting away mp3 players and generally acting really suspicious.

I think they picked up on people noticing them and then played up to it.  

Its just an example of how people get paranoid to easily.  Personally I wouldnt have been too bothered if they were talking arabic and acting weird, I would be more bothered if they were quiet and just kept looking around.

Sounds like something that could have happened and if true they deserved to be put off the plane they have only themselves to blame.
