Saudis at U.S. Airports, What if Nasrallah……….

              


““Do you have any relationship with terrorist organizations like Al-Qaeda, Hezbollah and the Mujahideen Army?” This is one of the many questions that United States investigators ask Saudi students when they arrive in the country. Many students have complained that this type of treatment infringes on their dignity. Now the National Society of Human Rights (NSHR) in the Kingdom has also slammed the measures as an infringement on the dignity and rights of Saudis, under international law. Fahd Al-Jabr, a political science and international relations student, said he was subjected to a complicated body search at Detroit Airport recently. Al-Jabr, who has stayed in the US for four years without incident said: “I was interrogated by five investigators – three civilians and two military personnel. They asked provocative questions including a question about whether I had a relationship with terrorist organizations. The most difficult was the body search, which was humiliating and inhumane.” Al-Jabr said that all his personal files on his laptop were copied by the investigators without his permission. He was astonished that neither the investigators nor the inspection staff apologized for their behavior……..”

I would imagine that even if he dated one of Bin Laden’s nieces he would deny it.
And these guys are citizens of a country that is allied with the USA. Imagine what they’d do if Hassan Nasrallah showed up at JFK or O’Hare. Oy Vey.
