Wait..what? Cat Stevens deported

[Toksin]

What the?

Paranoid fuckheads. Of course his name is going to attract attention in a computer program when it's Yusuf Islam.

[YogsVR4]

Are you saying he was singled out only because he is a Muslim?

He's not a citizen. His name showed up on a suspect list. Why should he get different treatment? Because he used to be a celebrity?

[twospirits]

Plus the fact that he has contributed financially to groups that support terrorism according to the FBI/CIA. That alone gives him a one way ticket back to where he came from, regardless of his (ex) celebrity status.

TS out

'Cuz the FBI/CIA intelligence is so reliable .

Never liked his music. They can keep him.

I am sure we don't know all the details. The lists usually don't pick up on muslim names only maybe some actions or words on Cat Stevens part also triggered it.

[MagicRat]

Generally I think Cat is harmless, but I am suspicious of anyone who embraces any religion with the same enthusiasm he shows.

On the news they said he has contributed to terrorist groups. That is enough for me.

I liked his music. I had a few of his albums (vinyl not tape) back in the day. He seems to have gone 'round the bend.

and your the one calling me dumb...

[thegladhatter]

I didn't call you dumb. What you said was though.

i think the CIA obviously took a deeper look at his 1970's hit, Wild World. The Chorus is:
Oh, baby, baby, it's a wild world
It's hard to get by just upon a smile
Oh, baby, baby, it's a wild world
I'll always remember you like a child, girl

Clearly, if you read between the lines, he has a strong sympathy for Islamic militant groups. Duh.

Thanks CIA/FBI!
