Thread: No matter how many times you do it, the way the US Immigration authorities insist on

    They once asked me if I’d ever been to Iraq or the Middle East.

    I responded chirpily “well, I’ve been to Israel!”, assuming they’d put two and two together and work out that I’m a harmless Heebie rather than an evil Allan, but this only served to make them even more suspicious

    You are a bit brown, to be fair to them. And if you weren't clean-shaven, their suspicion is entirely understandable.

    Of course, it's just a good old-fashioned siege. Fine when our chums do it but if a rival does then he's the devil himself.

    Nothing old-fashioned about it. Our Saudi cronies are taking suicidal risks in order to protect the non-combatant population. Which is presumably why nobody is talking about it much. #fakenews

    We wouldn't do it, not like that

    Well, no, we wouldn't. We have a voting public at home that takes exception to large numbers of our chaps coming home in boxes in order to preserve the lives of rather dubious foreigners. Saudi has no such problems.

    Do they still ask if you are a communist?

    They're not committing suicide, they are merely taking suicidal risks. That's the point; they are behaving very well, not like A says.

    Right. Taking suicidal risks like bombing schools, hospitals, weddings and market places, and blockading Hodeida, lifeline to millions.

    We seem to be on different planets on this one.
