Police detained two leftist activists Sunday at Ben Gurion International Airport Sunday afternoon after they held up signs that said "Welcome to Palestine."

They were all taken to questioning in the Interior Ministry office at the airport, pending their repatriation.

The two leftists unfurled the signs immediately after Police Central District Commander Maj. Gen. Bentzi Sau gave reporters a briefing on the situation. As they were led away, nationalist Israeli activists shouted at them: "Go see what is going on in Syria!"

Maj. Gen. Sau said that "We are carrying out joint operations of all Israeli government ministries. We have given the airline companies a list of 500 activists whom we said we do not let into Israel. Most of them will remain in their countries of origin. However, some of them succeed in arriving here, and we question them and return them to their countries of origin."

"Whoever does not accept the Interior Ministry's arrangement will be taken to the Israel Prisons Authority's detention facilities,"...

Why return them to their country of origin? Egypt is right around the corner. Syria but a stone's throw away. Or let them see scenic Libya and watch the Arab spring sproinging before their very eyes?

Leftists get in bed with radical Islamists to make whoopee on Israel. This unholy alliance will eventually meet its bitter end but for now such are the purveyors of current and modern style anti-semitisms.

Just strap bombs to the next ten who arrive, drop them at the PLO HQ and detonate them by remote control.

I’d watch that on pay per view.

I was going to suggest holding the left wing douchbags for about 6 weeks or so in order to “process” their deportation, but I like your idea better. Human rights in Syria are so well respected. Take the liberal scum to the Syrian border and drop them off. I’m sure the Assad regime will treat them warmly.

The problem with that letter is that it assumes they really care about human rights. They care about posing as if they care about human rights, and posing as if they are brave. So they come to protest Israel, because Assad would simply shoot them.
