U.S. Court Overturns Palestinian's Guilty Sentence for Failing to Disclose Israel Terror Convictions
![]()
REUTERS - A U.S. appellate court on Thursday vacated the conviction of a Palestinian activist charged with immigration fraud for failing to tell U.S. authorities she had been imprisoned in Israel for a 1969 supermarket bombing that killed two people.*
Rasmieh Yousef Odeh, 68, has said her confession to the bombing was the result of severe torture by the Israeli military, including rape and electric shocks.*
The 6th Circuit U.S. Appellate Court opinion said a lower court should have allowed expert testimony that Odeh was suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) due to torture in prison, and did not know her statements to immigration officials were false.*

The trouble is that Israel's fascist actions and racism are becoming fashionable. The more that Americans allow their money to support the likes of Netanyahu the greater will be fascism's influence in Washington.
America is poisoning itself for the sake of a protecting a foreign doctrine of ethnic cleansing and apartheid.
