Rasmea Odeh was deported Tuesday.
The 70-year-old Palestinian immigrant, whose U.S. citizenship was revoked by Immigration and Customs Enforcement for not disclosing having served time as a prisoner in Israel, didn’t cry until the end, only after ICE refused her huge crowd of supporters entry into the airport.
Before that, Odeh was staunchly defiant, the etched lines of her set countenance only occasionally twitching during a three-hour O’Hare Airport send-off for the political activist who became symbolic of a cause — Palestine liberation — her case gaining notoriety worldwide.
“Up until this very moment, I didn’t believe they will throw me out of the place I’ve spent over 23 years, separate me from the people whom I love and they love me,” she said in an interview with the Chicago Sun-Times.
Odeh has waged a four-year legal battle to stay in the U.S. since her immigration case began in October 2013. She was indicted for failing to disclose she was convicted in 1969 of participating in a deadly terrorist bombing in Jerusalem, served 10 years, and was released in a prisoner exchange in 1979.

Surely we need more people who have already been convicted of terrorist attacks. Especially if they have lots of friends here.
Buh-bye, Leftard terrorist!
Don’t let the plane door hit ya where the good Lord split ya!
Good riddance, and don’t let the door hit you where Allah split you.

Good riddance to an unwanted terrorist. Now let’s deport he other 12 million plus illegals. No exceptions.

Once in a while, justice IS served.

And yet.....Trump’s fault!!!
Good riddance murderous Bitch.
And who’s the guy behind her wearing a U.S. Navy petty officer’s cap?
This woman is seventy years old.
So what if she left off her application that she had been in prison in Israel? (She is a Palestinian activist-One might expect such a person to have been in prison in Israel.)
And ICE was so mean to her, not letting her supportets into the airport to say goodbye to her. ( They made her cry-Plus she had been here in the U.S. for 23 years and now has to leave everyone she loves behind).
What a tragedy...
But then, at the bottom of the article there's this:
She failed to disclose that she was convicted in 1969 of PARTICIPATING in a DEADLY TERRORIST BOMBING , and was released after 10 years during a prisoner exchange.
The way this is written is a text book example of media bias.
They twist it into a sob story of an old lady being brutally expelled from here and hope that the reader will not finish reading, and subsequently see the perfectly reasonable, (she had been part of a plot blow up people), explanation for her deportation.
If a person does not reach this pertinent fact delibrately placed at the end of the piece, they (readers), might think the U.S.A. is a bad country.
What a way to twist up the facts and favor an agenda, , by these so called "journalists"(propagandists).
Do I really need to post a /s after my opening statement?
