I was held for two hours. The first round of questions was about my views on Hamas. Then the agents wished to know whether I thought Israel’s actions in the Gaza Strip amount to genocide and what I think of the slogan “Palestine should be free from the river to the sea”. I said yes, I do think Israel is committing genocide. As to the slogan, I said that in my view people anywhere in the world should be free.
Then the agents interrogated me about who I know in the Arab American and Muslim American community. They asked me to provide them with telephone numbers, took my phone away for quite a long period and asked to wait until they made some phone calls before they let me go.
Idk what you’re trying to say here.
He’s an Israeli scholar who writes about the ethnic cleansing of Palestine.
Your assertion that he can’t possibly be connected to Hamas because he’s Israeli doesn’t hold water because Hamas was Israel’s creation in the first place.
Show me where I said “he couldn’t possibly be connected to Hamas?”
But technically if you want to make the argument that Israel is responsible for Hamas, shouldn’t they be stopping every Israeli at the border in the US?
No, it seems they’re targeting this guy in particular because he advocates on behalf of Palestine.
