But it is a violation of international law to prevent a traveler from contacting his embassy.

Technically, I think that since he hadn't officially entered the country there was so such requirement.

If you are being detained by another country's security personnel, I don't think it would make a difference.

Thanks.

I have myself fallen prey to “too good to check” syndrome.

Posted a Jefferon Davis “Enslavement Proclamation” that was supposed to have been issued in response to Lincoln’s Emancipation Proclamation.

I have a pretty good eye for the type of language used in different eras, and it looked authentic.

Unfortunately, while it was indeed contemporaneous, it turned out to be from the 1864 equivalent of The Onion. A parody.

Which taught me that stories that really, really align with your POV should be approached very carefully, just like financial deals that seem to good to be true.

The possession of an Israeli visa appears to have been his only offence.

If that was indeed his only offense then tens of thousands of passengers each year should be denied entry into the UK. I suspect there is more to it than that.

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

In service to their master, Satan.

Especially the part where the security agent taking his photo was wearing a burkha.

What with the propensity of "journalists" to call all long guns AR-15s or AK-47s and most dogs Pit Bulls, they might be calling any Muslim headscarf a burqa.

Apparently this happened last year. From the story "Cantor arrived at a London’s Heathrow Airport on May 29, 2013, at about 10:00 pm".

I can’t say I’ve ever heard this story in the UK.

..................

From the inventors of the blood libel. This incident happened in the spring of 2013. There's no question of the agents bias, their antisemitic comments were overheard, and repeated to his father and potential employer. The problem was that he was entering the country to intern for the summer, however didn't have a visa allowing him to work.

This story was posted on FR last year, and the reasons for his refusal were posted at the time. He had an invalid visa, his ‘jewish’ story was and is a load of crap.

Don’t bother, the story was exposed last year on here as a fraud. The lad had an invalid visa. The little turd then went crying to the US/jewish media groups telling this story of anti-Semitism.

The incident and supposed slurs never happened. This was debunked in the FR threads on this last year.
