Former Professor Pleads Guilty to Supporting Terrorists:

Former University of South Florida professor Sami Al- Arian has pleaded guilty to conspiring to provide services to the Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ), a designated terrorist group, in violation of U.S. law, the Justice Department announced Monday. As part of Al-Arian's plea agreement, the government plans to recommend a sentence of 46 to 57 months behind bars, based on a five- year maximum statutory sentence. Following his imprisonment, Al-Arian agreed to be deported to another country by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. "We have a responsibility not to allow our nation to be a safe haven for those who provide assistance to the activity of terrorists," said Attorney General Alberto Gonzales in a statement. Al-Arian has been in U.S. custody since he was arrested on Feb. 20, 2003. He lived in the United States for about 30 years. "Sami Al-Arian has already spent significant time behind bars and will now lose the right to live in the country he calls home as a result of his confessed criminal conduct on behalf of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad, which is the same conduct he steadfastly denied in public statements over the last decade," said Gonzales. Al-Arian admitted guilt to count four of the indictment against him -- conspiracy to make or receive contributions of funds, goods or services to or for the benefit of PIJ. President Bill Clinton issued an executive order in January 1995, banning certain transactions with groups and individuals who were "specially designated terrorists." Those included PIJ, Sheik Abd Al Aziz Awda and Fathi Shiqaqi and later, Ramadan Shallah. Al-Arian admits he provided services for the PIJ in 1995 after he knew the group was designated a terrorist organization and while he was a professor at the University of South Florida. In the plea deal, Al-Arian admits he knew the PIJ used acts of violence to achieve its objectives. Despite this, he continued to help the organization by filing official paperwork to obtain immigration benefits for PIJ associate Bashir Nafi and hiding the terrorist associations of individuals linked to the group. Al-Arian also admits to helping PIJ associate Mazen al-Najjar in a federal court proceeding where al-Najjar and Nafi both committed perjury, claiming they were not associated with the PIJ. Also, in late 1995, when Ramadam Shallah, co-conspirator and former director of Al-Arian's "think tank," the World and Islam Studies Enterprise (WISE), was named the new secretary general of the PIJ, Al- Arian lied to the media, claiming he knew nothing of Shallah's association with PIJ. "The United States stands committed to bringing terrorists and their supporters to justice," said Assistant Attorney General Alice S. Fisher of the Criminal Division in a statement. "Al-Arian has now admitted providing assistance to help the Palestinian Islamic Jihad -- a specially designated terrorist organization with deadly goals -- as the government has alleged from the start," said Fisher. "Because of the painstaking work of the prosecutors and agents who pursued this case, Al-Arian has now confessed to helping terrorists do their work from his base here in the United States -- a base he is no longer able to maintain," said U.S. Attorney Paul I. Perez of the Middle District of Florida in a statement. Al-Arian was acquitted of eight of the 18 counts against him after a six-month trial on Dec. 6, 2005. The jury deadlocked on three of the four most serious conspiracy charges against him.
