		Abouhalima argues that Judge Duffy precluded cross-examination of Moneeb on the circumstances of his questioning by the FBI; specifically that Moneeb was in fear, handcuffed and held at gunpoint during the questioning, and that the FBI threatened to deport Moneeb if he refused to answer their questions.
		Abouhalima's counsel suggested to the judge during a pretrial conference that Moharam had been arrested in 1991 for illegal activity and that his co- operation with the government was motivated by his arrest.
		Abouhalima argues that the government, through its opening statements and summation, deprived him of a fair trial by egregiously misrepresenting the evidence, by appealing to the jurors' fears, by vouching for a witness, and by attempting to shift the burden of proof.

		Abouhalima's training site was the frontier city of Peshawar in Pakistan, near the Afghan border, where the major mujahedin parties had their headquarters and where more than 50 Arab relief agencies and unofficial groups had offices.
		Abouhalima settled in one of the many transit houses known as the House of Friends, where young Arabs were often crammed four to a room.
		Abouhalima, for his part, says that during the bombing he was at home with his family in Woodbridge, New Jersey, observing the rituals of the Muslim holy season of Ramadan.

	The Roots of Terror
		Abouhalima fits the classic profile of the Islamic fundamentalist leadership – urbanized, college educated, with middle-class professional aspirations, but stymied by the weak economies of the Arab states.
		Although maintaining a surface religiosity, Abouhalima's early years in Germany were a "life of corruption – girls, drugs, you name it." Eventually, however, both Abouhalima and his wife (who converted to Islam) adopted a rigorous observance of Islamic purity, and migrated to the United States.
		Abouhalima's struggle is a magnified version of the difficulties faced by many young adults in the modernizing Middle East.

		Mahmud Abouhalima and Zacarias Moussaoui are two individuals whose links to terrorism were known to U.S.-friendly governments in their home countries.
		Mahmud Abouhalima received amnesty under the 1986 Immigration and Reform and Control Act, by falsely claiming to be an agricultural worker even though he was a cab driver.
		Issuing Mahmud Abouhalima a green card facilitated his terrorism because he could then work at any job he wished and was able to travel to and from the United States freely.

	Televangelist, Fundamentalists believe their strict morality is the only answer
		Abouhalima, one of the militants convicted in the 1993 bombing of the World Trade Center, sounded a lot like Robertson when he explained to an interviewer that the "holy war" is not against God-fearing Americans, but against secularism in the United States, Egypt and around the world.
		Abouhalima, who was born in Egypt, is a tall, bearded, red-headed man also known as "Mahmud the Red." He went to Germany in 1981, at age 21, and moved to New York City in 1985, where he worked as a cab driver.
		Abouhalima is among the "new breed" of terrorist.

		In December 1989, El-Hage met a man named Mahmud Abouhalima in an Islamic conference in Oklahoma.
		Prosecutors think that in early 1990, El-Hage was called up by a "tall man" in New York who arrived in Arizona and said he was to check on Dr. Rashad Khalifa, an imam some felt was unorthodox.
		One week later, his mutilated body was found in an apartment that he shared with Mahmud Abouhalima.

		By then, Abouhalima was established in the revolutionary Muslim underground, and Renate's home became a hive for dissident Egyptians, united by shared bitterness and common orthodoxy.
		Though Abouhalima had probably never owned a houseplant, he found a lawyer to affirm that he had worked seven months on a South Carolina farm.
		Just six months after Abouhalima's successors finished his work, the House voted 275 to 137 to once again extend amnesty to illegal aliens, and this time they don't even have to be faux farmers.

		Abouhalima and Nosair were eventually among those convicted of conspiring with Sheik Omar to wage urban warfare in the United States, and in that campaign they made use of skills imparted to them by the CIA and the U.S. military.
		But even as Abouhalima and Nosair underwent that training, according to Two Seconds Under the World, the FBI had them under surveillance as possible terrorists.
		Yousef met Abouhalima in Afghanistan in 1988, and it was Abouhalima who brought the Afghan terrorist to the United States in September 1992 on behalf of Sheik Omar's network.

		When I interviewed Mahmud Abouhalima in prison in the mid-1990s he told me a little parable to illustrate what it was like for someone like him to live in American society.
		But one day as the flock gathered at the water hole he peered in at his reflection and saw that he was not like the others.
		Abouhalima simply smiled and resisted my attempts to declare what must have appeared to him to have been a kind of pseudo-religiosity.

		Finally, we agree with the district court that plaintiff failed to offer any substantiation for his conclusory assertion that the filing of the report was racially or religiously motivated.
		While we agree with the district court that plaintiff failed to offer any substantiation for his assertion that this act was racially or religiously motivated, we nevertheless conclude that the act, if true, was sufficient to state a claim upon which relief could be granted.
		In particular, a liberal construction of plaintiff's pleadings indicates that the officer's alleged statements to Abouhalima were intended to, and in fact did, increase the risk of physical danger to plaintiff.

	Ali Mohamed - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		After leaving the Egyptian army, he apparently became an agent for the CIA (supporting the Afghanistan jihad) and an agent of Al Qaeda, which used him as an infiltrator into the U.S. He was very successful — he was hired to teach courses on Arabic culture at the John F. Kennedy Special Warfare Center.
		While in the United States, he helped train a number of jihadis, like El-Sayyi Nosair (who killed Rabbi Meir Kahane, head of the militant, terror linked Jewish Defense League in New York City), or Mahmud Abouhalima, who assisted Ramzi Yousef in his attack on the World Trade Center.
		Ironically, at the time he was training bodyguards for Osama Bin Laden, associating with clerics like Abdel-Rahman, and casing embassies in Africa (like the one in Nairobi, Kenya), he became an FBI informant.

		When I interviewed Mahmud Abouhalima, one of the things he expressed to me was an enormous sense of frustration.
		Mahmud Abouhalima told me about his life in Germany and his experiments with drugs and alcohol, and then suddenly he told me a story about a lion who was raised by sheep.
		One day the lion went to a pond and saw his own reflection and then he suddenly realized he wasn’t a sheep, he was a lion.

		In the end, the evidence overwhelmingly established that Ramzi Yousef, Mohammed Salameh, Nidal Ayyad, Mahmud Abouhalima, Ahmad Ajaj and Abdul Rahman Yasin conspired to bomb targets in the United States and that, as part of their terrorist scheme, they participated in the February 26, 1993 bombing of the World Trade Center.

		Three weeks later, Abouhalima was brought back to the United States after having been turned over to the FBI by Egyptian authorities.

		Subsequent to the filing of his complaint, plaintiff was transferred from USP-Leavenworth to a federal correctional facility in Lompoc, California.
		We further agree with the district court that plaintiff failed to state a claim upon which relief could be granted arising out of his initial placement in SHU at USP-Leavenworth.
		We conclude the district court erred in dismissing plaintiff's remaining claim, i.e., that one of the officials at USP-Leavenworth falsely informed Abouhalima that plaintiff had attempted to "set him up" for a disciplinary violation (by apparently placing a knife in Abouhalima's cell).

		In the past, when immigration authorities lacked needed personnel and other resources, the result of such overload was massive fraud.
		One consequence was the issuance of a green card to Mahmud Abouhalima in the 1986 illegal-alien amnesty; once he had legal status, he was able to travel to Afghanistan to get terrorist training, which he used to lead the first World Trade Center bombing.
		This isn't a detail that can be worked out later - dealing with this must be at the center of any genuine effort to fix our immigration mess.
