ESTA form - weird question

liamw

On the ESTA application (Visa Waiver Program) to the US, there's a 'Yes/No' question:

C) Have you ever been or are you now involved in espionage or sabotage; or in terrorist activities; or genocide; or between 1933 and 1945 were you involved, in any way, in persecutions associated with Nazi Germany or its allies? *

WTF.. why specifically include assoication with the Nazis?

I think you should answer yes, just to see what happens.

...simple, when they do track down some of the nazi types they can do them for lying to immigration.

If you were subjected to any of the above sould that not count as being involved?

If you check that box, and survive your vacation in Gitmo, Steven Spielberg's going to want to interview you for Shoah II: The Revenge.

Jonty

Vote yes.

Do it. Do it. Do it. Do it. Do it.

Do. It.

I wonder if peer pressure also works online

Because "have you ever dropped a nuclear weapon on civilians or firebombed civilians or supported regimes that wiped out many many squishy civilians or stolen lands off indigenous people and then wiped them ou?t" could be a really awkward question for an american to ask

They should have a space for yes and no, but nazis would enter nein.

It's the Grammar Nazis they don't want, because they're a bit sensitive to criticism.

Although quite a few political Nazis live in the US, they don't mind having a few more.

Ha class, i think this little snipe would be somewhat lost of the vast majority of chuds that word in immigration. Incidentally a fcuking ridiculous question that i read and am consistently amazed by each time i go to the US.

It could be a clever recruitment drive to find top quality genociders,sabotaeurs and espionagers!

I was at immigration in JFK recently and as I took my passport out to hand to the nice man a one euro coin had got caught in between the pages and flipped up on to the desk where we were standing.

Yer man dryly says "Sir if that's a bribe you will have to do a lot better". Was very funny at the time but I still don't think I would tell them you were a Nazi just to see what happens : )
