US to deport Hamas-linked fundraiser
 A leading fundraiser for an Islamic charity with alleged links to the Palestinian resistance group Hamas is to be deported from the US. An immigration judge ruled on Tuesday that Abd al-Jabbar Hamdan, 44, should have known that his work for the Holy Land Foundation for Relief and Development provided support to the group. "Our laws prohibit aliens who are living here as our guests to use this country as a base to advocate terrorism or raise money for terrorist causes," said John Salter, Los Angeles chief counsel for the US Immigration and Customs Enforcement. The judge did not name the country where Hamdan would be deported to.Posted by: Fred 2005-02-09 |
