Fawaz Damra
National Catholic Reporter, April 1, 2005
A federal appeals court March 15 upheld the conviction of Fawaz Damra, a decision that will prompt federal prosecutors to begin deportation proceedings against the imam of Ohio's largest mosque. Damra, 43, was convicted in June of lying on his immigration form and during an interview in 1993. He failed to mention his work with the Palestinian Islamic Jihad, which opposes Israel's existence, and the Alkifah Refugee Center in Brooklyn, N.Y., where the imam knew other radicals.
