Teenager detained for two months in Kuwait has come home...

... but only after a two hour interrogation by the FBI at Dulles Airport. Here's a video of the homecoming: http://motherjones.com/mojo/2011/01/breaking-fbi-interrogating-gulet-mohamed-without-counsel-dc-airport

And here's a copy of the lawsuit filed on his behalf last month:

This morning NPR reported:
Gulet Mohamed, a Virginia teenager, is back home after being forced to stay in Kuwait for more than a month. He says he couldn't return because he was on the U.S. no-fly list, though the government won't confirm or deny that. The list has grown, but the FBI says it's surprisingly small — just 10,000 names, 500 to 1,000 of whom are U.S. citizens.
