[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Amideast works very closely with the State Department. This story makes no sense and shows how completely disorganized our Executive Branch is. Heaven help us if we ever have any kind of crisis.[/quote]

This was my thought as a former consular officer as well. What is the point of training and employing consular officers only to reverse their decisions?[/quote]

This.

I hope the Post or someone pursues the story further. Could be a possible huge disconnect between the work of the consular service and individual immigration officers. So much authority for officers at the airport operating in a span of hours to remove someone. Wonder if they actually checked the student's paperwork with the right part of the Stste Department or just made assumptions so they could deport him immediately rather than hold him while working with State.
The report that they kept repeatedly asking him about his "religious practices" even as other students were released is...telling. [/quote]
