UNITED KINGDOM: Kansas Jewish student refused entry to Britain
NewsWeekly ^ | 04/12/2014 | GP Colebatch

Posted on 04/28/2014 9:34:54 AM PDT by aimhigh

A young American Jewish student, Louis “Chip” Cantor, 23, attempting to enter Britain, was detained in a cell and interrogated over several hours, subjected to anti-semitic abuse by customs officers and then deported back to the United States for the crime of being Jewish and having an Israeli stamp in his passport. He was “shaken down” and detained by a female officer wearing a burka. It is a story which leaves no room for misunderstanding.

Eventually, he was informed that he was being denied entry and sent back to the United States. He was walked aboard the plane by a British official, and his passport handed to the American Airlines flight crew, with instructions not to give it to him until the plane arrived in America. Cantor was told that his passport information and fingerprints had been put in a database which would flag him for other officials if he tried to enter any EU nation in the future. The possession of an Israeli visa appears to have been his only offence.

Meanwhile, back in America, Chip’s relatives in the media and government villify the original Americans - White Anglo Saxon Protestants - for trying to curtail mass immigration from the Muslim countries.

Go figure. Maybe it’s some kind of inherited cognitive dissonance...or just a simple death wish.

We should not give up, now or ever.

Even though large tracts of Europe and many old and famous States have fallen or may fall into the grip . . . we shall not flag or fail. We shall go on to the end, we shall fight in France, we shall fight on the seas and oceans, we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, we shall defend our Island, whatever the cost may be, we shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender, and even if, which I do not for a moment believe, this Island or a large part of it were subjugated and starving, then our Empire beyond the seas, armed and guarded by the British Fleet, would carry on the struggle, until, in God’s good time, the New World, with all its power and might, steps forth to the rescue and the liberation of the old.

Pretty bad. Would be interested in the other side of the story.

Quite obviously a great many people with Israeli stamps in the passports enter UK all the time.

When I get home (and no longer using a company email) I will contact my MP about this.

This is insane. A question needs to be asked in the House.

You know who to ping. Words fail, if this is true.

Apparently this incident occurred last July, so I’m not sure why this is being posted now. Nonetheless, I missed it the first time, so no problem. I did a little Internet search on Chip Cantor, and this story apparently only hit the local Kansas City news media, some Jewish publications, and a few conservative sites such as FR. The MSM - predictably - appear to have ignored it. And what does THAT say?

It is gone, and I increasingly regard the EU as a malignancy in the world.

"Would be interested in the other side of the story."

I saw this item in a few other sites, and I did not see "the other side of the story," so maybe there was none. Maybe it is as it appears.

“So britain is already controlled by the screaming bearded savages.”

And that’s just their women.

Its possible that one could be denied entry to the UK for giving lip to the customs agents. They can be pretty abrasive at Heathrow, and have full discretion to deny entry
to a smartarse if they feel like it.

“Where is the U.S. State Dpt?”

Due to a technicality the US State Dept. was unable to have any of its representatives directly participate in this young man’s denial of entry to the UK.

These do sound like some of Hillary Clinton’s friends though.

Possibly. But lots and lots of people with Israeli stamps go to UK, including lots of people with Israeli passports.

That’s what makes me suspicious of the story. Have you seen a story on this from UK? They have pretty good journalists, mostly better than MSM journalists here. Not that this is a particularly high bar to jump.
