Imam Fawaz Damrah Indicted

(Cleveland, Ohio) Imam Fawaz Mohammed Damrah, 41, was arrested at his home about 8:30am today by members of the FBI joint terrorism task force and charged with providing false or fraudulent information on his citizenship application. The "religion of peace" leader apparently concealed his affiliation or membership with several groups, including the Palestinian Islamic Jihad which has been identified as a terrorist organization.

Damrah was born in Palestine and has been a permanent US resident since 1988 and a naturalized citizen since April 1994. If convicted, Imam Damrah faces a possible five years in prison, a $5,000 fine and loss of citizenship.

My take is simple. There's no surprise here. Time and again, the practitioners of the "religion of peace" have been nothing more than henchmen for Islamic fundamentalism and terrorism. And, no surprise here either, it took way too long for the authorities to make an arrest.
