ICE Deports Convicted Terrorist Who Tried To Bomb New York City

By: Daily Caller, October 18, 2019: (thanks to Christian):

Immigration and Customs Enforcement deported a Sudanese national who was involved in a large-scale terror scheme to blow up the United Nations and other areas around New York City.

The agency deported Amir Abdelghani, a 59-year-old convicted terrorist, back to his home country of Sudan on Oct. 12, according to an ICE press release. His removal marks the close of decades-long reprimand after a jury convicted him in 1996 of a foiled terrorist plot targeting major landmarks around the country’s most populous city.

“The removal of this convicted terrorist is a strong declaration of ICE’s commitment to public safety and national security,” Simona Flores-Lund, ICE’s Enforcement Removal Operations Philadelphia field office director, said in a statement Friday. “This removal is a victory for the United States and further emphasizes ICE’s vital role in protecting our nation.”

U.S. authorities apprehended Abdelghani, then 33 years old, in 1993 for his involvement in a terrorist conspiracy to blow up the United Nations, FBI offices and other prominent New York City locations — part of a planned holy war against the U.S. Sheik Omar Abdel-Rahman, a radical Muslim cleric from Egypt, led the scheme, according to court documents.

A federal New York jury convicted Abdelghani in 1996 for his involvement in the terrorist plot, along with nine other defendants.

An immigration judge ordered that he be removed from the country in 2001. However, his deportation was not to be executed until he finished his prison sentence, which ended in July. ICE had a detainer on him since 2001. At the conclusion of his prison term, ICE’s Enforcement Removal Operations officers transferred him into ICE custody, where he remained until his deportation to Sudan.

Abdelghani’s removal is the latest in the Department of Homeland Security’s effort to remove criminal illegal aliens from the country.

ICE deported or returned a total of 258,085 aliens in fiscal year 2018. The agency’s Enforcement and Removal Operations apprehended 158,581 aliens, with 90% of those arrested carrying criminal convictions, pending criminal charges or previously given final orders of removal. The arrest figures were an 11% increase from the prior fiscal year. (RELATED: New York Imam Convicted Of Terrorism Will Be Deported Back To Iraq)

Additionally, the Department of Justice announced that it prosecuted the highest number of immigration-related offenses in fiscal year 2019 than it did in any other previous year on record, a reflection of the current immigration crisis taking place on the U.S. southern border.

“ICE remains focused on removing public safety threats, such as convicted criminal aliens and gang members, as well as individuals who have violated our nation’s immigration laws, including those who illegally re-entered the country after being removed and immigration fugitives ordered removed by federal immigration judges,” read a statement from the agency.

I suggest Schumer go to all these countries and just walk around for a while. If he lives, I’ll be surprised.

Felix no, he didn’t ‘forget’ Danny Pearl because that never registered with him.

See that little sweetie next to Chuck-You? She’s a muzzrat brood mare-in-waiting. She’s already been mutilated, and already can’t wait to raise her muzzrat kiddies up to kill, rape and torture all you/us INFIDELS.

Bar Kochba had Roman collaborating Jews killed — regardless of how devout they claimed to be, because he realized he was fighting a war against a degenerate, merciless enemy.

The only segment of the population of NYC who derives commercial benefit from the presence of the UN is the hookers.

You don’t know the 1/2 of it but this [ex] New Yorker does:

The worst is the double, triple, quadruple parking there because the “diplomats” have immunity from any tickets? NYC’s bad enough with the pkg. and traffic, but by the UN? Off the charts. A LOVELY neighborhood, Tudor City, is right there near the UN and they’re literally unable to deal with it at all.

Since they have “immunity” from ANY prosecution (they don’t really, but no one ever prosecutes them)? It’s unwise to go out to the surrounding clubs, bars, restaurants because the 3rd world lowlives aka “diplomats” regularly rape, drug and assault whomever they wish. Again: No prosecution.

Thus this thug gets a medal in my book. Gee: It’s really a day for firsts with me. LOVED hearing how the Chi-Coms put their muzzrats in concentration camps and make them eat pork? And LOVED hearing how the UN was nearly obliterated.

Better luck next time.

The UN was created with a 3 fatal flaws.

Allowing dictatorships and fascist muslim states in the UN.
Allowing communists states in the UN.
Allowing Russia and China to have veto power.

All free countries should withdraw and stop all funding at once to the UN.
All free countries SHOULD reform under NATO, with several minor changes.

Deport all muslims from the west, citizens or not.
Replace Turkey with Israel.

Well to be realistic, given the location of the frustrated outrage, I expect the squad to rally to the creeps defence and at least to name a school after him, after all he is a “victim” of the white male racist Islamophobia riddled patriarchy, the poor poppet.

Bury and forget.

Terrorists should be executed, not given an easy escape. Keep watching these subhumans, there are many more where that came from.

As I recall the FBI stated 80% of US mosques are radicalized. So with roughly 5 million Muslims, about 4 million of them are potential terrorists. We need mass deportations in the West.

This terrorist shouldn’t be deported. If he is, he could just sneak back in later under a dfferent name and commit the same kind of terrorist attack he was planning. He deserve to be executed, as do they all.comment image

What Muslims don’t understand, because they are either stupid, ignorant, or both, is that the majority of Americans HAVE GUNS.

OK, we release and deport a KNOWN TERRORIST back to his home country, JUST SO HE CAN JOIN ISIS AGAIN AND FIND ANOTHER WAY TO BLOW UP INNOCENT PEOPLE.

OR hey, maybe this guy can TEACH TERRORIST WANNABEs?

Is our Government really that stupid?
