LIMA, Peru (AP) -- Peru's government abused its authority by barring paroled U.S. activist Lori Berenson and her 31-month-old son from leaving the country to spend the holidays in New York City with her family, her lawyer charged Saturday.

"Administratively, you can't block a court order," Anibal Apari said after Berenson told The Associated Press that she and her son Salvador were prevented from boarding a flight Friday night despite being granted permission in court.

A three-judge appeals court had given her permission to leave the country beginning Friday with the stipulation she return by Jan. 11.

~snip~

Mark Berenson, who turns 70 on Dec. 29, told the AP on Friday that his daughter had every intention of returning to Peru.

Sure she did. ROTFLOL!!

Only in the United States can a foreign terrorist get time off for a religious holiday like Ramadamadingdong.
Apparently Lori Berenson is confused as to where she is.
It sure as hell ain't Kansas Toto.

She’s lucky to even draw a breath as a free woman. Her original sentence was for life, and it was only after the U.S. applied pressure for years that is was reduced to 20 years (and she only served 15 of that, IIRC).

BTW, I found this little tidbit on Wikipedia:

“On July 21, 1999, the United States House of Representatives voted against an amendment sponsored by US Rep. Maxine Waters described as “to express the sense of Congress concerning support for democracy in Peru and the release of Lori Berenson”. The vote failed 189 to 234”

Swell. Just swell there, Maxine.

Semi-free, I should say. As the article points out, she’s only supposed to be able to go home for a brief visit.

Of course, once she’s on U.S. soil, she’ll try to stay here. Personally, I don’t want her to come back at all!

Drag her commie to the top of the nearest Cannibal Culture temple and sacrifice her for the greater glory of teh Jaguar God.

Such a multi-culti ceremony - just right for a commie.

In an interview with the AP last year, Berenson said she was deeply troubled at having become Peru’s “face of terrorism” and felt she’d become a politically convenient scapegoat.


70,000 were murdered by her leftist pals in their Utopian cause. Can’t imagine why anyone would look at her as a terrorist!

It’s a shame she won’t be in New York with her comrades, the occupoopers./s/

Leftists are blood thirsty thugs. The brains full of mush who brown nose their commie professors, have no idea of Marxism’s bloody and oppressive history. Commie professors tell them that capitalists lie about communism’s brutality and poverty. It’s politically incorrect to tell the truth about China and Islam.

Good ol’ Maxie-pad Waters of One-United Bank stimulus scam fame; she’s the congresscritter that wants to nationalize the oil industry.
