Left-Wing Hero Convicted Terrorist To Be Stripped Of Citizenship,
Deported For Lying On Citizenship Application
Leftists splitting a gut…
Quote:A convicted terrorist and darling of left-wing activists has accepted a plea deal in which she will be stripped of her citizenship and be deported.
Rasmea Odeh, 69, will avoid jail time as part of the deal, the Rasmea Defense Committee announced on Thursday.
“Under this current, racist political climate, and facing 18 months or more of imprisonment, as well as the possibility of indefinite detention by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), Rasmea has made the difficult decision to accept a plea agreement,” reads a statement from Rasmea Defense Committee.
The group called the deal a “victory” for Odeh, who was born in Palestine but will be deported to Jordan.
“She will plead guilty to Unlawful Procurement of Naturalization, lose her U.S. citizenship, and be forced to leave the country, but will exit the U.S. without having to serve any more time in prison or ICE detention, a victory, considering that the government had earlier fought for a sentence of 5-7 years.”
Odeh’s case has been in limbo since 2014, when a federal judge in Detroit sentenced her to 18 months in prison for immigration fraud for lying on her visa and citizenship forms about her past terrorism convictions and her ties to a terrorist group.
An activist with the Arab American Action Network, Odeh was alleged to be a member of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP), a designated terror group. She was convicted in Israel in 1970 of taking part in two bombings the year before, one at a supermarket in Jerusalem and another at the British consulate. Two Israeli students were killed in the supermarket bombing. Nine were injured in the two blasts.
Odeh was freed from prison in 1980 as part of a prisoner exchange. She emigrated to the U.S. in the 1990s and gained citizenship in 2004. She has denied taking part in the terrorist acts and has claimed that she was tortured and sexually assaulted by Israeli police to elicit her confession.
Odeh’s case has become a rallying cry for anti-Israel, left-wing and feminist activists. She recently helped organize the “Day Without A Woman” protests that took place on March 8.

She was an organizer of the day without women march. It was posted on this forum. If you would read the links we provide you instead of simply ignoring them and running off to get more liberal talking points, you actually may be able to speak about subject matters intelligently.

She gone.
Chicago activist loses US citizenship, will be deported
Snippit:
Quote:DETROIT (AP) — An activist known for helping Arab women in the Chicago area lost her U.S. citizenship Thursday and will be deported for failing to disclose convictions for bombings in Jerusalem decades ago.
Odeh, 70, pleaded guilty in April to concealing her previous convictions when she entered the U.S. in 1994 and applied for citizenship a decade later. She would have been barred from the country.

Literally right under the bolded section it talks about how the case has been in limbo for 3 years. Remind me who was president 3 years ago?

Convicted terrorist and good friend of a rising star in the alt-left/democratic party and ISIS sympathizer, Linda Sarsour. They organized the women's marches together.

I mean, are you really shocked that the previous administration allowed a terrorist who just so happens to hold the same political beliefs to stay? We are talking about the administration that weaponized the IRS, the DOJ, and evidently now ICE.
