YouTube Description
as posted by the channelThe Trump administration deported a Lebanese doctor who was an assistant professor at Brown University’s medical school after she admitted that she attended a funeral for slain Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah, officials said. NY Post reporter Katherine Donlevy shares this story.
Dr. Rasha Alawieh, 34, was arrested after arriving at Boston’s Logan International Airport from Lebanon on Thursday. Her family claimed that officials provided no reason for her deportation, and they argued her rights were being violated because she had an active visa to live and work in the US.
The DOJ has since alleged that the Providence, Rhode Island, resident and visa holder has an affinity for the Hezbollah terrorist group, with Alawieh allegedly admitting that she attended the Nasrallah funeral last month while visiting family in Lebanon.
Alawieh claimed she attended the ceremony “from a religious perspective” and not a political one, according to Politico.
The Lebanese terror group leader oversaw the daily rocket attack on Israel, which began the day after the Oct. 7, 2023 Hamas terror attacks. He was killed in a coordinated Israeli airstrike on his bunker in September 2024.
