British journalist Sami Hamdi was detained by ICE at San Francisco airport, allegedly in retaliation for his criticism of Israel during a speaking tour in the US. The Council on American-Islamic Relations (Cair) denounced the action as an affront to free speech, while Trump ally Laura Loomer claimed credit for influencing Hamdi's detention. This incident highlights ongoing concerns about the treatment of pro-Palestinian voices in the US.
