Islamic Law Helps Illegal Couple Stay In U.S.

Posted: 13 May 2010 12:18 PM PDT

 

In an unbelievable ruling, a federal appellate court has blocked the deportation of a Palestinian couple because the U.S. government failed to consider Muslim marriage customs under Sharia law.

The decision reverses both a federal judge and the Justice Department's Board of Immigration Appeals, which had determined that the Palestinian couple (Nabil and Sawsan Hassan) obtained U.S. residency illegally because they lied about their marital status to get it.

Nabil entered the U.S. in 1995 with a special visa granted to the unmarried children of legal permanent residents, in this case his mother. Sawsan entered the country on the same day with a nonimmigrant tourist visa. A month later the couple had a wedding ceremony at a Michigan mosque even though they had already been legally married in Israel. Sawson filed for legal permanent residency based on the marriage and got it a few months later.

When Nabil applied to become a U.S. Citizen in 2002, authorities discovered that he never even qualified for residency because he lied about being unmarried to obtain a visa through his mother. That means he was an inadmissible alien at the time of entry. His wife's residency also got revoked because her status was based on her illegal immigrant husband's.

The couple fought the deportation but an immigration judge upheld it and so did the Justice Department's Board of Immigration Appeals. The government presented evidence that the couple had been married in Jerusalem before coming to the U.S. and therefore neither spouse qualified to be in the country. The Hassans played the Muslim card in their appeal and won.

This week the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit halted the deportation because the government failed to adequately rebut testimony about Muslim marriage customs. The Hassans claim that they were not officially married when they came to the U.S. because, under Islamic law, marriages involve four steps and they had only taken three in Israel.

Under Sharia law, the final step that made their marriage complete did not take place until the ceremony at the Michigan mosque. A Detroit-area imam, Mohammed Mardini, even testified as an expert witness on the Hassan's behalf. He confirmed that indeed Islamic marriages involve four steps and each must be completed before a marriage is finalized.

The Sixth Circuit panel agreed, saying that the "the government did not offer clear and convincing evidence that petitioners had completed the steps required for a Muslim marriage under Sharia law before entering the United States."

Kagan May Be Goldman Sachs’ Supreme Court “Golden Girl”

Posted: 13 May 2010 08:23 AM PDT

Besides being a liberal activist and political operative with no judicial experience, President Obama's Supreme Court nominee has financial ties to a global investment firm embroiled in a major fraud scandal after getting a generous government bailout.

Solicitor General Elena Kagan worked for Goldman Sachs, a Wall Street titan that donates generously to Democrats, while she was dean of Harvard Law School and some believe she will be the firm's "Golden Girl" on the U.S. Supreme Court if she gets confirmed.

Kagan worked as an "advisor" for Goldman Sachs for about four years and received a $10,000 annual "stipend" from the embattled investment banking and securities firm. The information only came to light because Kagan was forced to include it on financial disclosure forms when Obama appointed her Solicitor General last year.

Goldman Sachs has been charged with defrauding investors in the sale of securities with subprime mortgage ties when the housing market was collapsing. The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) claims the firm misstated and omitted key facts about a financial product tied to subprime mortgages, leaving investors to lose $1 billion.

The firm is one of many financial institutions that received a taxpayer bailout as part of Obama's fraud-infested Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP). Allocation of the disastrous program's $700 billion has been largely swayed by lobbyists, despite the president's promises to restrict them from influencing the disbursement of tax dollars in this case. Goldman Sachs got a $10 billion infusion.

Not surprisingly, Kagan, her supporters and even the Justice Department assure that she was not involved in any investment decisions at Goldman Sachs. The Solicitor General was merely a member of the firms' "advisory panel" that met once a year to discuss public policy issues.

Kagan is one of many top Obama Administration officials with close ties to Goldman Sachs. The president has received hundreds of thousands of dollars in political donations from the financial giant and so has Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, who's tight with ex-Goldman chief Robert Rubin, a member of her husband's White House staff.

Obama's current Chief of Staff, Undersecretary of the Treasury for International Affairs, Deputy National Security Advisor, Director of the Congressional Budget Office and chief economic advisor are among the many with close ties to Goldman Sachs. A news website, which lists Goldman-tied Obama Administration power players, claims it's become the Goldman Sachs administration.
