Israel-Palestine-Jordan

ISM activist awaiting deportation

2005-12-13

Security forces arrested a British national, apparently a member of the pro-Palestinian International Solidarity Movement (ISM), who entered Israel in August with a changed name to avoid detection by Israeli border control, details released for publication on Monday revealed. The man, Andrew MacDonald, had previously visited Israel in 2003 and was expelled by the Interior Ministry after IDF soldiers arrested him while holed up in the home of a terrorist.

MacDonald changed his name and sneaked back into Israel this summer. Security forces detained him in early November in the Tel Rumeida neighborhood of Hebron after he assaulted a member of the security forces. He was released, but detained again on November 25. "Mr. MacDonald's entry and presence in Israel was done deceitfully and in contravention of Israeli law," a statement from the Prime Minister's Office said. Israel tried to deport MacDonald on November 30, but while on board he threatened to cause a disturbance and he was removed. He is currently being held by the Immigration Police awaiting deportation.

#2 Tattoo his hand, "Not permitted in Israel." Then charge his credit card for his return ticket, and the round-trip (1st class, of course) for his Mossad guard. Not forgetting to charge the ass for the guard's salary and benefits for the time period, as well, as the expenditures would have been unnecessary had the ass not snuck into the country illegally. And of course, add his name to the U.S. no-fly terrorist list. If he wants to go somewhere, let him take Air Salonika or some other puddle-jumping off-brand airline that doesn't take security precautions... and also doesn't clean the bathrooms often.
