~shaking my head at the rest of that CBS-11 report~
"Vicki Alkhatib, the American-born wife of another area Syrian and associate of Barodi, told CBS-11 she called the FBI after overhearing discussions that Barodi’s activities for the brotherhood were continuing.
“They were talking about how he had ties with Al Quaida training, how he had been kicked out of every country he had been in for fraud,” she said. “What he had been trained for through the terrorist organization was documentation fraud.”
Vicki Alkhatib’s call to the FBI sparked an investigation into brotherhood activities in North Texas continues, sources tell CBS-11. Ironically, her husband, Abdulbari Alkhatib, was then detained on immigration charges and now also faces deportation with Barodi. Alkhatib came to the U.S. on a visitor’s visa years ago and overstayed it, accumulating several felony convictions along the way, records show.
Vicki Alkhatib said she believes her husband’s willingness to help the FBI uncover terrorist connections in North Texas entitles him to a break."
