I DO blame Bethune and his hedge fund backers for this predatory attempt to rape UAL of its cash. Being as cynical as I am due to my 19 years at UAL I'm no fanboy of Munoz, but I'll bet my career that his strategic plans and vision for UAL are far better than these vultures will have. They want to extract as much cash as possible, as soon as possible, and will bail out if they overreach and we go south. Something about the goose and golden egg.....but they have a winning exit plan to boot.

I agree 100% with you. I will say this .. if these Gordon Gecko's actually do manage to take over the board, United will tank operationally. I would rather see this place go down in flames than watch some corporate raiders walk away with billions. I'm confident the majority of the employees feel the same way.
