NEWSRAEL: A latter special article will be published on our app showing that Linda Sarsour, at a TEXAS meeting of CAIR called for the release of this very terrorist.
Aafia Siddiqui is a Pakistani neuroscientist who moved to the US in 1990 on a student visa, subsequently studying at the University of Houston before transferring to MIT where she triple-majored in biology, anthropology, and archaeology, and later receiving her PhD from Brandeis University, as reported in Peter Bergen's book The Longest War: The Enduring Conflict Between America and Al-Qaeda.
Moving to Pakistan, Siddiqui had become involved with extremist groups, and she married suspected al-Qaeda member Ammar al-Baluchi in 2003. Baluchi is a nephew of 9/11 mastermind Khaled Sheikh Mohammed (KSM), according to the US Director of National Intelligence.
The US government alleged that Siddiqui was involved in a plot by an al-Qaeda cell to commit attacks in the US, the UK and Pakistan. The cell, led by KSM, planned to sabotage gas stations and underground storage tanks and poison or destroy water treatment facilities.
Siddiqui has held antisemitic views, dismissing a legal defense team on the grounds that the lawyers were Jewish and claiming the case against her was a Jewish conspiracy, according to The Guardian. She insisted that jurors be DNA tested to ensure they were neither "Zionist" nor "Israeli," The Times reported.
According to Scroggins, Siddiqui wrote a letter to then-President Barack Obama reading, "Study the history of the Jews. They have always back-stabbed everyone who has taken pity on them and made the 'fatal' error of giving them shelter.... and it is this cruel, ungrateful back-stabbing of the Jews that has caused them to be mercilessly expelled from wherever they gain strength. This why 'holocausts' keep happening to them repeatedly! If they would only learn to be grateful and change their behavior!! ..." Scroggins added that Siddiqui later claimed she was not against all "Israeli Americans."
