WND Jerusalem bureau chief Aaron Klein will be a guest today on Michael Savage's top-rated nationally syndicated radio show to discuss the No. 3 host's banishment from the United Kingdom.
British home Secretary Jacqui Smith today made public a list of individuals banned from the U.K. since October, including radio superstar Savage whose "The Savage Nation" radio program is among the highest-rated in the United States. The list groups him with terrorists and neo-Nazi murderers banned from entry because the government believes their views might provoke violence.
Now the host is considering legal action against Smith.

Home Secretary Jacqui Smith said she decided to publicize the list of people banned since October to show the type of behavior Britain will not tolerate. While there were 22 names, only 16 were released because Smith said publication of the remaining names would not be in the public interest.

As WND reported, Savage's immediate reaction upon hearing the news was typically wry.
"Darn! And I was just planning a trip to England for their superior dental work and cuisine," he recalled thinking.

"Then it sank in," he told WND, "and I said, 'She said this is the kind of behavior we won't tolerate? She's linking me with mass murderers who are in prison for killing Jewish children on buses? For my speech? The country where the Magna Carta was created?'"
