A Hossein Derakhshan was denied entry into the U.S. by some texts written in his blog , do not hate America, not a "terrorist" threats have not written to the government, is simply a critical citizen of things, events and news see, hear, read and experienced in the places they frequent, including the United States. Derakhshan, who lived for 1 month in New York one night before going to Toronto and return the next day [by bus] was detained by U.S. immigration officials. Explaining that would give a lecture at an event related to weblogs officer sat at a computer, the name of Hossein searched on Google and eventually reached the blog . why do you say live in NY, if you have Canadian citizenship? - Why did you go to Iran? - What is your opinion of the Bush administration? - Why you left your wife? - Were some of the questions that the immigration officer did Hossein Derakhshan after reading the blog. Is there a difference in this deal with countries like North Korea where he questions your thoughts and opinions? no, the problem is that America is "The land of the free", "land of freedom" and allegedly defended ideologies such as freedom of expression or * democracy. Hossein Derakhshan NY strange . If that happened I would not think of ever again, he can come back in 6 months.
