Guantanamo actors held at airport

The actors who star in the movie The Road to Guantanamo were questioned by police at Luton (UK) airport under anti-terrorism legislation, it has emerged.

The men, who play British inmates at the detention camp, were returning from the Berlin Film Festival where the movie won a Silver Bear award.

One of the actors, Rizwan Ahmed, said a police officer asked him if he intended to make any more "political" films.

I can't get excited about this. Some young male arab (or pakistani) muslims traveling together between London and Berlin were breifly detained. One even got told he could be held for 48 hours... but wasn't! Oh, dear! People outraged by this should direct their anger at the young male muslims around the world who are behaving so violently against democracies.
