She’s not the only one that was supposedly ‘discriminated’ against with lots of unanswered questions still out there.
Here’s an interesting article from the Globe about the guy who was ‘stranded’ in Sudan as he was on the UN ‘no fly’ list as a suspected terrorist and now he’s suing our government for $27 million. Some excerpts:
"While Abousfian Abdelrazik continues to flatly deny ever having been in Afghanistan or Chechnya, he openly admits to a long spree of travel in the 1990s that included destinations such as Pakistan, Bosnia and Georgia that were hot spots of Islamic militancy, as well as places of widespread suffering.
In every case, including places never included in the long list of accusations against him, Mr. Abdelrazik insists he was only involved in humanitarian and religious work.
Similarly, Mr. Abdelrazik says he was in Pakistan, including Peshawar, gateway to the Taliban heartland of Kandahar in Afghanistan where the Taliban ruled in the late 1990s, but only to study. He denies crossing into Afghanistan or attending any extremist training camps.
“I've never held a gun,” he said, “I am not a military person.”
At the same time, Mr. Abdelrazik acknowledges he has no evidence, no way of proving or documenting his version of his globetrotting. He has no letters, no postcards, no pictures, no gifts, souvenirs, and – he says – no one who can back up the accounts of his travels.
But the ambiguity remains. He won't, for instance, say what he was doing, nor who funded him, nor name which – if any – organization he worked with during his humanitarian travels.
When asked for details about which charities he worked for, how he funded his travel or proof of the trips, he replied testily. “I don't want to talk about it,” a line he uses repeatedly when asked about the backing for his humanitarian work."
