The questions got dumber and more surreal: “Who did your father work for in Iran?” I don’t know. I was 7 when we left “Oh Mr Scholar! You can tell me everything about the Ottoman Empire but you don’t know your own father’s history?” For the record I am not an Ottoman scholar.
In the end, after hours of this, she warned “I may let you into Israel but, who knows, I may not let you out. I will keep you here and kick out your family. It depends on you. You would miss your kids yes?” That my friends is the classic police state trick. Iran has perfected it
Her final warning was not to visit the Palestinian Territories. Not to meet with or speak to any Palestinians or any Israeli trouble makers. “We are watching you.” 2 days later I went to Bethlehem, to the wall, and took this picture:pic.twitter.com/9RZyUjPVmo
Two days after that, the Italian artist who painted this portrait of Ahed Tamimi was arrested and deported. This was my 4th trip to Israel in ten years and every time it’s gotten worse. It’s becoming unrecognizable as a democracy. It is becoming a full-blown police state.
And it can’t last. When I was released my evangelical in-laws were in shock. “I had no idea it was like this,” they said. Now they do. So do more Americans each day. And if Israel loses them, who will continue to shield it from pressure to change course? The clock is ticking
You mean Israel?
Sadly this is majority of countries nowadays 
I remember what I had to go through in US. Officer taking my email password & search. Going over every photo in my laptop and asking for name, address, information of everyone and everything in the photos. Intimidation at its best.
Wow! This is nasty .. when was that?
First incident was towards the end of 2007 Bush’s time. Second was just a year ago coming back from Canada to the US after a road trip. Last year they checked every single receipt and paper in my car literally except for my laptop.
So cynical and dishonest. If you were a Jew entering Iran, you would have been thrown into prison and hung as an Israel spy, rather than just being inconvenienced for a few hours.
What has this to do with Iran?
Incredible, I'm amazed that they would a) do this to a public figure and b) be so ham handed and vile with it.
Iran? The entire Eastern bloc during the Cold War!
It’s called authoritarianism! The economic system is ruled by the authoritarian regimes....
Shit like this make me glad to enter Pakistan and Dubai as freely as possible
Nobody who thinks in Hebrew could possibly produce sentences like "you would miss your kids yes?"
Lol it is but they’re no Iran.
