Yep. Knew it would happen sooner or later. Today, convicted terrorist sympathizer Sami Al-Arian is the first documented deportee who will be able to hang a picture of him on his wall in his new, as-yet undetermined "homeland".

In the end, Sami Al-Arian's decision to accept a plea deal came down to two things: his desire to end the case for his family, and his determination not to admit to a crime of violence.

The single count to which he pleaded guilty in a deal approved Monday accomplished both, said his attorney Linda Moreno.
...
What the former University of South Florida computer science professor did do, however, was publicly admit for the first time that he aided associates of a terrorist group.

By pleading guilty to one count of conspiracy to provide services to the Palestinian Islamic Jihad, Al-Arian acknowledged helping three known associates of the group with various nonviolent activities and repeatedly lying about what he knew.

As a result, Al-Arian likely will serve several more months in prison, then be deported to an undetermined country.

Yes, that's Beloved Leader and Mrs. BottleInFrontaMe with Sami and Family on 3-12-00, if the date is right. I imagine that Dear Leader raised some money from this photo-op, since they don't normally let just any douchebag get a photo-op with a candidate. Or maybe they do. Any of that lucre from Palestinian Islamic Jihad? Inquiring minds do want to know.
