(Arkansas) Student charged with planning Jihad
2005-07-02
via JihadWatch
A Palestinian-American student accused of planning to engage in terrorist activities waived his right to a court hearing. Arwah Jaber of Fayetteville, Ark., is charged with planning to travel to the West Bank to engage in jihad against Israel. His attorney announced the waiver Tuesday.

Explaining to a professor why he couldn't graduate on time, Jaber wrote, "I decided to take an honorable job in Palestine with the Palestinian Islamic Jihad Organization to pursue a more noble cause freedom, justice and peace for the Palestinians and to fight the Israeli terrorism." Jaber was born in the West Bank town of Yamoun and attended Pittsburg State University in Kansas and Georgetown University before enrolling in doctoral studies at the University of Arkansas.

If convicted of offering support to a foreign terrorist organization, he could be sentenced to up to 15 years in prison and fined up to $250,000.

#7  Why should we seriously spend another dime of our taxes on this dreamer? Deport him to Palestine before anyone gets wind of it and drop him off at an Israeli checkpoint with a suspicious bulky item permanantly strapped to his body underneath his clothes... then pour a cup of ants down his pants, honk several times, and speed off giving the middle finger to the Israeli guards. One... it will save us money in the long run, two it help our dear student achieve his goal, it will give the media more crap to fill the screens with... hmmmm... there is enuf of that. Maybe we should just lock him up in USP Atlanta.

#6  I think you guy are being a bit to harsh on the lad, take him out about about 250 miles, east of the Jersey shore, and let him take a leisurely swim back to Palestine.
