"Lily Sussman works with refugees in Cairo as part of the Resettlement Legal Aid Project. I understand that she’s a student at Northeastern in Boston. She wanted to visit Israel and was grilled at the border about her travel in Arab countries. They took her laptop… Apparently she has saved the hard-drive."
"I was sitting on the deck overlooking the Red Sea. Israeli security officers (most who looked around 18 years old) had completed around two hours of questioning and searching me. They had pressed every sock and scarf with a security device, ripped open soap and had me strip extra layers. They asked me tons of questions–where are you going? Who do you know? Do you have a boyfriend? Is he Arab, Egyptian, Palestinian? Why do you live in Egypt? Why not Israel? What do you know about the ‘conflict’ here? What do you think? They quized me on Judaism,which I know nothing about."

The Israelis are the laughing stock of the global community, they are the cause celebre of complete scorn. No legitimacy whatsoever for brute activities for no apparent reason but that they can, and they do much worse to the Palestinians daily. How long will the US bear this fetid albatross around its neck? Even the base US principle of doing anything for its elites has past its time in this instance.
ReplyDeleteThat gives me an idea... a bullet proof laptop .Seriously those arse holes have more hormones than brain , their intention is obviously vandalism and nothing to do with security.BTW the Hard Drive sits in the extreme bottom left which has been missed.
