Nope, the ones who got him a South African passport as a British citizen did.

His South African passport may have been the problem.

The Department of Homely Security is probably more interested in interdicting nascent “white terrorists” than going after Islamic maniacs.

My guess is if his name was Mohammad Akbar Al-Jihad, they never would have bothered him.

Actually, I think the question is, why is he trying to fly on a South African passport, if he’s British.

I don’t think the suspicion is that he’s a terrorist, but that if he is allowed into the country, he might not leave.

I have a hard time finding sympathy for a kid from a family able to span the globe for mouse fun, when several million American kids already in Califa can not afford to get into the Anaheim park.

Is this kid a mooselimb ?>

Anarcho-tyranny in action. Google the term.

Something stinks about this. His parents can drive to Disney from Britain.

“Kathy and Edward Francis spent months planning every detail of the ‘holiday of a lifetime’ to Florida to celebrate grandson Micah’s tenth birthday...”

Every detail except ensuring that his passport was in order. Idiots.

And if Immigration DID let him in and he overstayed, people would be whining, years from now, that ICE did not do it’s job.

Why did they think this kid was any greater flight risk than any other 9 year old boy?

“Tessa Jowell, Labour MP for Dulwich and West Norwood, has hit back at the U.S. authorities, saying...”

Is Michael Savage still banned from the UK? If so, then I don’t want to hear whining from their government.

Now, by cracky. Proof that the Janet No-polatino and Homeland Security are finally cracking down on possible UDAs and maybe tourist er terrorist.
Way to go Janet! Stop’em in their tracks.
Why that lil kid could have recked untold havoc on Disneyland or even Disneyworld. Just think about it, cutting in lines,, spilling soda pop and leaving chewing gum wrappers on the ground. Maybe even screaming with delight. And And And he possibly, could have, maybe overstayed his visa.

If he’s going to Disneyland, why on Earth is he flying to Florida?
