Israel denies entry to high-profile critic Norman Finkelstein
'The Shin Bet security service detained and deported an American Jewish professor who is a prominent critic of the Israeli occupation when he landed at Ben-Gurion International Airport on Friday.
Professor Norman Finkelstein was interrogated for several hours and held in an airport cell before being put on a plane back to Amsterdam, his point of departure. Finkelstein said he was told he could not return to Israel for 10 years.'
Ain't it great that Israel is a 'free country' and the only democracy in the Middle East'?
