Palestinian Woman Hid Terror Conviction to Get U.S. Citizenship
(Chicago Tribune) Jason Meisner - On Tuesday, federal agents in Chicago arrested Rasmieh Yousef Odeh, 66, on charges she lied on immigration and citizenship papers by concealing her conviction for a deadly terrorist bombing more than 40 years ago in Israel. According to an indictment unsealed in Detroit, Odeh was a member of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine when she was arrested in the 1969 bombing that killed two people and injured several others at a crowded Jerusalem supermarket. Another bomb at the British Consulate caused structural damage. Odeh was released as part of a prisoner exchange after serving 10 years.
