Deported Brown University doctor acknowledged she attended Hezbollah leader’s funeral on visit to Lebanon, source says

A Brown University assistant professor and doctor was deported over the weekend from Boston to Lebanon after federal agents found photos of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah and Iran’s supreme leader on her cell phone, a source familiar with the case told CNN.

Following Dr. Rasha Alawieh’s return Thursday from a visit to Lebanon, federal agents at Boston Logan International Airport found the photos, the source familiar said. It was not immediately clear why officers were examining her phone.

The existence of the photos was outlined in a court filing Monday obtained by CNN affiliate WCVB. “In explaining why these multiple photos were deleted by her one to two days before she arrived at Logan Airport, Dr. Alawieh stated that she did not want to give authorities the perception that she supports Hezbollah and the Ayatollah politically or militarily,” the filing reads, per WCVB.

and I guess your poor reading skills missed the part about "Due Process".

 

Due Process:

"Khalil has been ordered to appear in front of an immigration judge on March 27 at the Lasalle Detention Facility in Louisiana."

 

They are going to need people like you this spring/summer in the cherry orchards.

The Trump administration moved him to Lousiana so that any appeal of a Federal judge blocking deportation would be reviewed by the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals in New Orleans. It is the most reactionary appeals court in Amerika.

Seems the judiciary agrees.

That’s not what the Judiciary agrees.

 

The court ruling is his case shall be heard in the jurisdiction where he was at the time his appeal to the court was submitted.

 

He was at the time in NJ.

He’ll be much happier back home in Syria.

He’s got himself a great fanboys club of Hamas supporters. Sad <deleted> , Of course then theres the obligatory posters who insist on pointing out his rights..........😴

 

OUTRAGEOUS: At a rally for Mahmoud Khalil, a protester was spotted wearing a PFLP headband—a blatant show of support for terrorism.

It's amazing how consistently the Dems get it wrong. It's pretty much on every issue. 😄

 

On the plus side, it's exactly this type of stance that ensures the GOP will get the many terms they need to Make America Great Again.

That raises an interesting question- Where would Mahmoud Khalil be sent if he were deported from the U.S. ?  He is a citizen of Algeria, but no one has yet explained how and when he got Algerian citizenship.   All the reports I've read have said he was born and raised in Syria, then went to Lebanon for his university education and after that worked in Syria and Lebanon until he went to the U.S.  

 

What's his connection to Algeria?  Syrian law doesn't allow Palestinians to become citizens of Syria except in very rare cases.  Presumably he would be entitled to Palestinian citizenship because his parents were Palestinians, but there's no indication he has ever been to Palestine or made any attempt to formalize citizenship there.  

 

Would Algeria take him?  If Algeria refused, where would he be sent?

Yes, so the judiciary agreed that was a blatant attempt by the administration to circumvent the rule of law. As the poster i replied to and i said.

No that's not what the judiciary agreed. That's you making stuff up again. Expected from you of course, pity you can't even get the judicial points correct.

 

Judge Jesse Furman in Manhattan ruled that New Jersey was the appropriate venue since Khalil was first detained there when his legal team filed the lawsuit.
