Description

Award-winning investigative journalist Max Blumenthal, who has long spoken out against Israel’s genocidal war crimes in occupied Palestine, was recently detained by Customs and Border Protection officials at Washington Dulles International Airport after returning from a personal trip to Nicaragua. The agent who stopped him mentioned catching a recent Blumenthal appearance on former judge Andrew Napolitano’s TV show. Guest hosts Russell Dobular and Keaton Weiss discuss the experience with Blumenthal, and expand the conversation to address the harassment many others — some of whom are not even politically active — have faced when returning to the country from abroad.

This is what the Patriot Act was all about..... curtailing your constitutional rights and giving them the ability to arbitrarily claim you are a "terrorist" and so will be withheld from your former rights as a citizen.

I've visited Oman. My friends say "isn't that dangerous". I've visited Yemen. My friends say "isn't that dangerous". I've visited Iraq. My friends say "are you crazy". Yet in these three places I have never felt more welcomed and experienced such generosity from the locals. But if I visit USA, I risk being detained, having my devices confiscated, or being denied entry altogether. So much for the country of freedom!
