A young blonde Icelandic woman writes on an Icelandic blog about her recent police state experience in the United States:
During the last twenty-four hours I have probably experienced the greatest humiliation to which I have ever been subjected. During these last twenty-four hours I have been handcuffed and chained, denied the chance to sleep, been without food and drink and been confined to a place without anyone knowing my whereabouts, imprisoned. Now I am beginning to try to understand all this, rest and review the events which began as innocently as possible.
Ah yes, America the land of leg chains and handcuffs. Like I heard someone on cable news say last night, we now know that George Orwell was a miserable hack in light of what goes on in America today. Many thanks to traitors George W. Bush, Dick Cheney and the loathsome Republican Party.
