Hillary: Suspected Terrorist Deserves Freedom

New York Sen. Hillary Clinton has gone to bat for a suspected terrorist who was arrested a month after the 9/11 attacks when he was caught photographing an upstate New York reservoir.

In a letter sent to federal immigration officials this week, Clinton called attempts to deport Ansar Mahmood "disturbing," asking that the INS consider requests from Mahmood's former neighbors in Hudson, New York to release him and allow him to stay in this country.

The 26-year-old terror suspect told U.S. terror probers at the time that he was photographing the Hudson reservoir to show the pictures to his family in Pakistan, the Associated Press said.

While not charged with committing any terrorist acts, the Pakistani immigrant was convicted in January 2002 of harboring illegal aliens and was ordered deported.

During her Senate campaign, Mrs. Clinton developed close ties to the Pakistani-American community.

At a Feb. 22, 2000 fundraiser that featured $1,000-a-plate dinner of barbecued chicken kebab, spicy goat curry and rice, she accepted $50,000 from a group that was lobbying for President Clinton to make a trip to Pakistan.

Mrs. Clinton told the dinner that she hoped her husband would make the trip, even though the Secret Service had objected on grounds that it was a security risk.

The next month President Clinton made the trip.

Just like the Democrats never met a dictator they didn't like, Hillary has never met a Palestinian she didn't support.

A citizen who breaks the law should go to jail or otherwise face the punishment.

A non-citizen who breaks the law should face the punishment of the law, then be deported. Period.

This one sentence says it all. He came here legally, then used his status to commit a crime. He had his day in court, and was convicted. Why is he still here??

What I want to know, is why hitlery is still allowed to be a US Senator? If the title of this article (Hillary: Suspected Terrorist Deserves Freedom) is correct and true, she should be arrested for giving aid and comfort to the enemy.

Then, deport the witch with the terrorist.

Seems like he's being offered freedom...in Pakistan.

So what's the problem, Hil?

Anyone who's read Barbara Olson's Hell to Pay knows that Hillary has LONG had connections to the PLO.

I have a feeling that the clintoons et al are terrorists, not US citizens. They should be tried for treason and deported. F'ing Kerry, Gorelick, algore and the entire RAT party are just so "appeasing" for the terrorists. No wonder we had all the attacks during 42s occupation of the White House.
