| #13 I think most German tourists who visit the U.S. are not carrying antisemitic and/or pro-terrorist info on their phone. They still prefer not to deliver years of business and private info to U.S. authorities. Well, NYC has never been easy territory for Bavarians. In March 1971, Franz Josef Strauß was in New York for private reasons. At 2:45 in the morning, “the desire for beer drove him onto the street” in front of the Plaza Hotel near Central Park. And it happened as it had to: the inebriated CSU chairman was attacked by three prostitutes who, as a police officer later reported to the German Consul General in New York, stole a wallet containing $180 and 300 marks from Strauß's right back pocket... |

| #12 OTOH, Europeans can take an electric train, or walk, nearly everywhere, not having to rely on that nasty ol' fossil-fuel transportation. Now that may be true, and I like to visit Europe, but I like to live in Texas. |

| #9 But now it means burner phones and clean laptops. They want to read your E-mail, browse your WhatsApp and other stuff. People who need to go to the US somehow need to compromise, but tourists have options. A cogent point. There are increasing numbers of people in Europe nowadays who would get caught for either wanting to eradicate Israel and think Hamas was not only justified but didn’t go far enough, or have friends and relations who do — and that’s separate from those who support expanding the Ummah and establishing their particular flavour of caliphate. And of course the tourist visa —> illegal immigrant pipeline is no longer an attractive option. Not so many come from Europe with gang connections, though, particularly narco gangs… On the other hand, New York City has historically been a huge tourist draw, but right now I see no attraction to riding the NYC subway, for instance, nor wandering through Times Square. And why would they brave our colourful anti-Israel marches when they can see exactly the same thing back home — with exactly the same accents leading the chants. We have much to clean up here before we are ready to welcome guests again, a point European Conservative politely did not make. |

| #6 Somehow I think the US can absorb that loss. |

| #5 you mean like the UK Labour government sending political operatives to work for the Kamala campaign? |

| #4 US immigration has never been fun. But now it means burner phones and clean laptops. They want to read your E-mail, browse your WhatsApp and other stuff. People who need to go to the US somehow need to compromise, but tourists have options. Before, European tourists who weren't accepted were simply put on the next flight back home. Now they may languish in some immigration jail for weeks or even months without even given a reason. As I've said, tourists have options. |

| #3 Given the authoritarian nature that too many governments have taken, you'd probably be put on someone's EU watch list for traveling to the US. "Ve know you have family in zee old country" |

| #2 I looked all over that ZeroHedge article to see if they reported the percentage decline of Americans as tourists to those countries as well. As expected, no mention. Why don't they want to publish U.S. boycotts in kind? |
