Starting Nov. 4, federal prosecutors in Detroit present their case against a Palestinian woman who slipped through the cracks. Rasmieh Odeh, 67, has been in the United States since at least 1995.
To her advocates, she’s a peaceful community activist living in Chicago and an asset to her community. Yet, she has a bloody, dark side that she has kept hidden all these years.
Odeh is a convicted terrorist who spent 10 years in an Israeli prison. She led a 1969 bombing that killed two college students in a Jerusalem supermarket. Odeh confessed. She says that confession only came after she was tortured. She was sentenced to life in prison, but was released unexpectedly as part of a prisoner exchange in 1979.
Stand with Israel and the USA!!
Her torture claim has never been substantiated—even by the United Nations, to which she reported the alleged torture after her release—and she has yet to deny her involvement in the murders or even her ultimate imprisonment.
Odeh could have discussed the particulars of her situation when she applied for her visa and citizenship—how her sentence was even commuted—if she felt her alleged torture merited special consideration. Instead, she simply told U.S. authorities she had a spotless record.
Prosecutors say that constitutes immigration fraud. A terrorist conviction for an attack causing two deaths is something immigration officials would want to consider before granting an immigrant a visa or welcoming her into American citizenship.
Still, her supporters have launched an aggressive campaign aimed at getting the fraud charges dropped. Odeh, they say, is the real victim here. They claim this case is really about a government conspiracy to attack Palestinian advocates in America.
The campaign is led by Odeh’s colleagues from the Arab American Action Network ( AAAN ), but has attracted support from the Council on American-Islamic Relations ( CAIR–HAMAS–ISIS ), American Muslims for Palestine ( AMP ), the Arab-American Anti–Discrimination Committee, and even a group of 124 feminist academics.
In the video above, the first installment of a five-part Investigative Project on Terrorism video series on Odeh’s case and the campaign to thwart it, we provide an overview of the case and a look at Rasmieh Odeh and those supporting her.
New installments will be released each day this week. Tomorrow we examine the 1969 Jerusalem bombing Odeh helped orchestrate and learn more about her victims.
Part 2 of our series investigating the case against Rasmieh Odeh, and her supporters’ efforts to get the case dropped, looks at the victims of the 1969 Jerusalem supermarket bombing that led to Odeh’s conviction in an Israeli court.
Today’s installment traces the life of Edward Joffe, one of the two college students killed in the bombing. His brothers explain what prompted the family’s move from South Africa to Israel during the 1960s, and describe Edward’s hopes and dreams before his murder.
Rulings issued Monday mean that much of Odeh’s supporters’ arguments – that Odeh’s confession in the bombing was the result of torture, that her case is a selective prosecution aimed at hurting the Palestinian advocacy community – will not be allowed during her immigration fraud scheduled to begin Nov. 4.
Rasmieh Odeh was convicted in a 1969 terrorist bombing in Jerusalem and given a life sentence. So how did she wind up in Chicago, as an American citizen?!!
In Part 3 of our series examining the immigration fraud case against Odeh, we trace her steps from a prisoner exchange to her arrival in America and, ultimately, how she became an American citizen by withholding her criminal record from U.S. immigration officials.
On her immigration forms to come to America and later to become a naturalized citizen, Rasmieh Odeh swore she had no criminal background. No arrests, no convictions and no prison time.
Her attorney says that’s not a lie, despite the 10 years she spent in an Israeli prison after being convicted of bombing a Jerusalem grocery store in 1969. In Part 4 of our series examining Odeh’s pending immigration fraud case, we see her memory is much clearer when she’s among friends.
It’s a government conspiracy. It’s the Israeli lobby. Our 5-part series on Rasmieh Odeh’s pending immigration fraud trial and the campaign to turn her into a victim concludes by showing that, in order to win public support, her advocates try to make her case about anything but the fact that Odeh lied about her conviction in a Jerusalem terrorist attack that claimed two lives.
