(9,565 posts)same media publication that is completely different from this one. This piece is nothing more than lies and propaganda. According to Stanford Magazine, she was given a clearance letter from authorities about two hours after she was detained. They also told her at the time that it was a mistake.
There's a lot to this story, but you won't learn about it from the moron who wrote this article. I see you've done some research, but there are still a lot of questions that this woman hasn't answered. When she attempted to fly back to the US from Malaysia she was told she needed to contact the consulate there to get her visa cleared. I can't find anything that describes her doing that. That's a big issue. Was she forbidden from coming back to the US or did she refuse to contact the Embassy? All the lies being put forth by the reporters claim she was on the no-fly list for years. That's untrue. She was taken off and allowed to fly a couple hours after she was detained. The reason she's been unable to return to the US is her Visa. So...okay....did she give the clearance letter to the embassy? Did she contact them? These are big questions. I think her attorneys may have told her not to do any of that to make her case stronger. I don't know, there's something fishy. It seems if she went to the Embassy and they refused her they would be shouting it from the roof tops. Why no mention in the approximately twenty articles I read? Her court filing doesn't sound anything like the hyperbole the press is pushing on this story. No one is addressing how things would be different if she were a citizen. Actually, no one is addressing the story at all. They're using bits of it to push their agenda. Thanks for trying to gather information.
