Al Qaeda operative has US citizenship revoked – By Brooke Singman
A confessed Al Qaeda operative who says he was personally congratulated by Usama bin Laden and ran a communications hub with the terror group from his California home had his U.S. citizenship revoked by a federal judge Thursday, according to the Department of Justice.
The Egyptian-born, naturalized U.S. citizen and former Silicon Valley car salesman, Khaled Abu al-Dahab, was ordered to immediately surrender his Certificate of Naturalization to federal authorities, stripping him of his citizenship, and was “restrained” from claiming any rights, privileges or advantages of U.S. citizenship.
“The Justice Department is committed to the protection our nation’s national security and will aggressively pursue denaturalization of known or suspected terrorists,” Attorney General Jeff Sessions said. “This case demonstrates the Department’s commitment to using all tools at its disposal, both criminally and civilly, to strategically enforce our nation’s immigration laws and to disrupt international terrorism.”
