And at the same time, they spend years and millions of dollars being unable to deport a Muslim terrorist, and supporting him and his family in style. The Muslim terrorist has lately volunteered to leave because Jordan passed new human rights legislation, but it’s up to him as to if he really will, or change his mind. One man, an avowed terrorist at that, is holding the British people hostage and making them pay, and their government is allowing it.

Can this possibly be true?

I’ve been told to use a duplicate passport if traveling to Israel to avoid this kind of thing. Apparently this happens all the time in several countries.

I’m suspecting that this isn’t the ‘whole story’.

One fact that I did note - it appeared that he was coming into the EU to work. Was he on a work visa, or was he planning to work while on a tourist permit? That might be reason enough for exclusion.

I’d also be interested in what kind of ‘fundraiser’ he was going to participate in.

once they get past the U.K. Border Agency they will find friendly, welcoming people, without prejudice.”

Replace the words "U.K. Border Agency" with "Transportation Safety Administration" or "Department of Homeland Security". It appears that the only difference is that the U.S. has two gestapo organizations and the U.K. only one. This feels a lot like 1937 all over again.

Buchanan may be part kook, but he sure got it correct when he said Europe was gone.

Americans do not need a visa to enter the U.K. They stamp your passport with "Leave to enter for six months. Employment and recourse to public funds prohibited." This youngster was entering the U.K. to take up employment, which would be prohibited without a work visa. The immigration officer was able to elicit that information from the interview and rightfully concluded the younger was misusing the visa-free facility.

In all my travels, I have found immigration officials to be unfailingly courteous but I've observed they quickly become testy if they detect someone attempting to pull a fast one.

I might be able to shed some light on this situation and I will try to be brief as I can. My wife was born in England just before WW2. She taught school there and left for Canada at 21 years of age.

Five years ago, she went back to England to visit her relatives and attend a college reunion. She had a Canadian passport. The conditions of teaching in Canada, meant she had to be Canadian citizen.

She encountered a Muslim woman officer (by head dress) at Heathrow Airport. The woman asked her how long she would be staying and seemed to be perturbed at the answer. This was nine weeks. She said "why are you staying so long"? My wife explained that between attending a wedding and the college reunion, it would take some considerable time. She mentioned she was British and had the right of residence and the woman officer then slammed the passport down and it almost fell of the desk. My wife noted her cold hostile manner, but thanked her politely. She proceeded on her way.

Let’s start by saying that in my experience Europeans by and large are somewhere between mildly and very anti-Semitic.

That being said. I’m not sure about this story. My brother-in-law who lives in Ashdod frequently travels to England and France, with an Israeli passport. I have not heard of him having any trouble.

Additionally, about two years ago, my wife traveled to Israel through London. She spent a few days with friends and relatives in London before flying to Israel and she said the customs people at Heathrow could not have been nicer.

Others have said this, but could he have been traveling on a tourist visa? This would not excuse the treatment he detailed, but it would explain him being barred entry.
