McKinney held in Israel, to be returned to U.S.
JERUSALEM (CNN) -- Former U.S. Rep. Cynthia McKinney -- who was aboard a ship the Israeli navy intercepted this week -- is in a detention center and will be returned to the United States, the U.S. Embassy said.
<snip>
She has been given deportation papers but has refused to sign them, the embassy said.
She will be held for three more days, assuming she does not sign the papers, and then will be sent back to the United States, the embassy added.

Re: McKinney held in Israel, to be returned to U.S.
Bet she gave the Israeli's an earful. This almost makes me laugh. Can think of a few places they should send her to and it is not the USA.

Re: McKinney held in Israel, to be returned to U.S.
They confiscated her cellphone.
IDT authorities realize that McKinney with a cellphone is a hazard equal to a Saudi with a boxcutter...

Re: McKinney held in Israel, to be returned to U.S.
McKinney is nothing but a rebel rouser and discontent who is not happy unless she is in the spotlight running her mouth off.
I bet she is getting paid dearly for this misadventure by some left wing group. She is in lockstep with Farrakhan's Muslim Nation.

Re: McKinney held in Israel, to be returned to U.S.
No less a reputable source than the National Review once deemed McKinney "a dangerous lunatic" when she began accusing the Bush administration of "deliberately allowing thousands of innocent civilians to be killed on 9/11."
Is there any way the Israelis could refuse ever to return her passport? Why should WE have to accept that loudmouthed hypocrite back in the USA?

Re: McKinney held in Israel, to be returned to U.S.
How about one of our flush philanthropists buying her ticket on a Russian space flight. One way.

Re: McKinney held in Israel, to be returned to U.S.
Do we have to take her back?
I'd much rather send her back to Africa.
Oh, maybe they don't want her in Africa either.

Let 'em keep her and bury her in the deepest cell in the back.
