"Day Without A Woman" leader stripped of US citizenship, deported

Not because Trump hates women, but because she was a terrorist.

She should have been put in prison and than deported.

Nothing of value was lost.

What does this have to do with the women's equality movement? I am sure there are probably some lawbreakers in movements that big. Oh yeah, New York post.

You read the new York post? How is Bigfoot doing with elvis' baby? Who knew Bigfoot was female, right? Do you believe in pizzagate and Alex Jones membership coming to take you off planet also?

The underlying conviction may have possibly been bogus.

"In 1979, Odeh testified before a UN special committee in Geneva that as a 21-year-old university student, she was arrested from her home in Ramallah in the middle of the night by Israeli soldiers who “beat me without asking me a single question.” She was brought to an Israeli jail in Jerusalem where “they beat me with sticks, plastic sticks, and with a metal bar. They beat me on the head and I fainted as a result of these beatings. They woke me up several times by throwing cold water in my face and then started all over again.”

In addition to this physical torture, Odeh also faced sexual torture. Her father, a U.S. citizen, was also arrested and beaten, “and once they brought in my father and tried to force him under blows to take off his clothes and have sexual relations with me.” Later, interrogators “tore my clothes off me while my hands were still tied behind my back. They threw me to the ground completely naked and the room was full of a dozen or so interrogators and soldiers who looked at me and laughed sarcastically as if they were looking at a comedy or a film. Obviously they started touching my body.” In her father’s presence, interrogators threatened to “violate me” and “tried to introduce a stick to break my maidenhead [hymen].” Shackled naked from the ceiling, interrogators “tied my legs, which were spread-eagled, and they started to beat me with their hands and also with cudgels.”

Odeh testified that these tortures lasted 45 days. Finally, fearing “that my father might lose his life from one moment to the next” because of the tortures he was enduring, Odeh readied herself “to make the confession that they wanted, so that they would leave my father alone.” Her interrogators accused her of planting a bomb in a Jerusalem supermarket, an act which Odeh testified she “never carried out.” The interrogators “realized that perfectly well” because they brought her to the supermarket “and asked me to point out where I had put the explosive. Of course, I didn’t know the place and I said ‘where exactly do you want me to show you where I put this explosive charge?’ So they showed me where the explosion had taken place and I actually pointed out that place without being able to give any details of the operation. I didn’t even know how the operation had taken place.”"

However, regardless of whether her conviction was bogus, she did fail to disclose it in her immigration paperwork. That's a nearly impossible obstacle to get around. Better that she's deported rather than facing indefinite detention in the US.

Oh, fuck you sir, for bringing nuance into this, and showing how complex and complicated a person's life can be, and how it can be boiled down to one or two sentences to either laud or condemn them in the name of virtue. How dare you.

Wasn't there someone else involved with this who was involved in a hate crime against a gay man?

Just another Fakestinian terrorist, trying to hijack a movement. Linda Sarsour should be next.

Everyone knew she was a terrorist. Except the immigration authorities who let her in. Dare to suggest that broken system needs an overhaul though and watch the race baiters scream and cry.

You say a terrorist lied and made up excuses for her terrorism? Yeah, fuck off. She got a nice fair trial and was convicted of not one but two terrorist attacks. She can fuck off and so can you terrorism enablers/excuse makers.

As fair of a trial that a Palestinian woman can get in 1960s/70s Israel. I'm not saying that she's innocent, but there seems to be some fishy stuff that occurred on the part of Israeli investigators.

And my point still stands--regardless of the reliability of the underlying conviction, she failed to report it in her US immigration paperwork, thus completely screwing herself.

Yes, a very fair one, you anti-Semite.

You are reaching a new low with "I have no evidence, but, but, but... Da JEWS!"

WTF is a very trail?

If we had an irony meter, it would have gone nuclear.

What the fuck are you talking about? Just because someone does not want to kill every person in the middle east just to be sure to wipe Muslims off the planet does not make them an anti Semite. That just makes them a not dinner.

As far as the rest of this goes it is a terrible attempt to associate the fight for equality and women's rights with terrorism. Hatred of women seems to be something you share with ISIS.

You have a voicemail.

Do you have evidence, or are you just assuming?

Of what? I'm not saying she is innocent. Learn to fucking read.

You just implied that not only was her two trials unfair but that no Palestinian can get a fair trial in Israel. Yeah, that is what we can generously call an unsupported claim and more likely a double standard against Israel which is a textbook definition of anti-Semitism.

Way to stretch for that anti Semite claim. Be careful you do not pull anything, alternative facts are not very stable and now either is your mind.

Sorry, but singling out Israel and only Israel for supposedly not having a trustworthy court system, completely without evidence, is a double standard and double standards towards Israel are in the very definition of anti-Semitism. Fact.

My suggestion is for you to stop being ignorant of definitions.

No one actually did that. They just talked about this particular case. It would make no sense to have to refer to every judicial system in the world in order to discuss a specific case so you are not anti Semitic. That is purely ridiculous, and israel can have a corrupt anti Palestinian corruption without making everyone who mentions it an anti Semite.

You are just calling everyone who disagrees with Israeli policy and problems an anti Semite. The fact is that even Jews criticize Zionist Israeli policies and are they anti Semites? You have to be able to discuss negatives without some asshole with no rebuttal throwing around anti Semite.

You shouldn't be allowed to comment on women's issues.

Neither should you, molester enabler:

...and you wonder why you're relegated to a lower societal status.

My suggestion is that you stop drinking, because I never said any of that.

I'm highly critical of the US legal system (among others), that doesn't mean I hate Americans.
