ANOTHER ONE OF OURS IS REFUSED ENTRY INTO THE US

John (or Yiannis) Milios was denied entry into the US last Thursday, when he was scheduled to speak at a conference at SUNY Stony Brook called "How Class Works". Basically, the FBI "questioned about his political beliefs and was asked whether he expresses them peacefully or actively," then they swooped down, took everything, and expelled him. This is old news, but practically no press in the US has picked it up. I know about it because I read about it on an obscure Yahoo! group with tight limitations on membership.

It makes sense in terms of the larger trend -- the US is being prepped by its own ruling elites for a starring role as a pariah nation, anyway. Meanwhile, we should all read Milios' works -- if he's smart enough to be denied entry for political reasons, he's probably a good read...
