If we’re going to “fight them there so we won’t have to fight them here”, is
it too much to ask not to put them on the federal payroll?  From
<http://michellemalkin.com/2007/11/13/hey-how-many-other-illegal-aliens-are-
working-in-the-bush-administration/> Michelle Malkin:

The document of the day is a press release from the Justice Department
announcing,  <http://www.usdoj.gov/opa/pr/2007/November/07_nsd_910.html>
“Former Employee of CIA and FBI Pleads Guilty to Conspiracy, Unauthorized
Computer Access and Naturalization Fraud.” A Lebanese illegal alien was
working for the Bush FBI and CIA, got into our computer systems, got access
to info about her Lebanese relatives and the terrorist group Hezbollah,
arranged a sham marriage (
<http://www.jewishworldreview.com/michelle/malkin090602.asp> where have we
seen that before), and nosed around in bribery and extortion conspiracy
probes.

es-to-hezbollah-pleads-guilty-to-stealing-classified-info-about-the-group/>
Allah have full coverage of Nada Nadim Prouty’s guilty plea and the
appalling security lapses involved.

Debbie Schlussel points out: “The FBI and U.S. Attorney Stephen Murphy (and
before him, U.S. Attorneys Craig Morford and Jeffrey Collins) knew Prouty
was a spy for Hezbollah back in 2003, but they allowed her to work for the
FBI and CIA for over FOUR Years! They did not remove her from the job until
the end of this past September–1.5 years after her brother-in-law was
indicted for financing Hezbollah!!!!!!”

And Robert Spencer notes, “This story has everything: an illegal immigration
angle, a Keystone Kops angle, an espionage angle, a
moderate-Muslims-condemn-terror-or-do-they angle, and more. It would make a
great movie. If this kind of thing doesn’t kill us first.”

The Bush administration’s cavalier attitude toward illegal aliens in its
employ should be no surprise, of course. The Pentagon has allowed
<http://www.jewishworldreview.com/michelle/malkin100803.asp> known illegal
alien fraudsters to remain in the military as a matter of policy. And
remember the  <http://www.jewishworldreview.com/michelle/malkin010303.asp>
illegal alien working in the White House who got his picture taken with the
Cheneys?

When I broke that story in 2003, I ended my piece with this question for
President Bush:

[I]f his own guardians can’t keep low-level, illegal border-crossing
impostors out of the White House backyard, how in the world can we count on
his administration to keep far more sophisticated, illegal alien
evildoers…out of ours?

Answer: We can’t.

How many other illegal aliens and jihadi sympathizers are working in
sensitive positions in the shamnesty-promoting Bush administration?

Could the  <http://michellemalkin.com/2006/04/07/the-mess-at-dhs/>
crony-riddled DHS even tell us if they tried? 

Undermining American security and working with terrorists must be one of
those “jobs that Americans won’t do” that Jorgé W. Bush was telling us
about.

Michael Cutler underscores a point I’ve also made repeatedly in reporting on
the illegal immigration-national security nexus:

United States citizenship opens all sorts of doors to those who do not wish
to share the “American Dream” but rather create a nightmare for our nation
and our citizens. United States citizenship enables the alien who acquires
United States citizenship to be able to work at any job he or she is
qualified to do. It enables the person in question to be given security
clearances that provide access to highly sensitive intelligence and enables
such individuals to embed themselves in our nation and hide in plain sight
among us…This is why it is patently absurd to think that as the President
and other open borders advocates have continually said that if we allowed
those aliens into our country who simply want to work and do the jobs
“Americans won’t do,” we will be safer because then law enforcement and the
intelligence community can focus on the terrorists who seek to enter our
country to do us harm. Here is a startling clear example of a terrorist who
apparently wanted to do nothing more serious than get a job. She was
facilitated in her quest to embed herself in our country by a division of
DHS, United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) in providing
her with United States citizenship even though she had committed
naturalization fraud.

And before you tell me I’m being too hard on the White House, can you
imagine what your blood pressure level would be if this happened under the
Clinton administration?

I’m reprinting the whole DOJ press release because it deserves your
attention:

Nada Nadim Prouty, a 37-year-old Lebanese national and resident of Vienna,
Va., pleaded guilty today in the Eastern District of Michigan to charges of
fraudulently obtaining U.S. citizenship, which she later used to gain
employment at the FBI and CIA; accessing a federal computer system to
unlawfully query information about her relatives and the terrorist
organization Hizballah; and conspiracy to defraud the United States.

The announcement was made today by Stephen J. Murphy, U.S. Attorney for the
Eastern District of Michigan; Kenneth L. Wainstein, Assistant Attorney
General for National Security; Willie T. Hulon, Executive Assistant Director
of the FBI’s National Security Branch; Brian M. Moskowitz, Special Agent in
Charge of the Detroit Office of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement
(ICE); and Kurt Rice, Chicago Field Office Special Agent in Charge for the
U.S. State Department’s Diplomatic Security Service.

At a hearing in Detroit before the U.S. District Court Judge Avern Cohn,
Prouty entered a plea of guilty to counts one, two and three of a second
superseding information. Count one of the information charges conspiracy,
for which the maximum penalty is five years imprisonment and a $250,000
fine. Count two charges unauthorized computer access, for which the maximum
penalty is one year imprisonment and a $100,000 fine. Count three charges
naturalization fraud, for which the maximum penalty is 10 years imprisonment
and a $250,000 fine, and requires the court to de-naturalize the defendant.

“This case highlights the importance of conducting stringent and thorough
background investigations,” said U.S. Attorney Stephen J. Murphy. “It’s hard
to imagine a greater threat than the situation where a foreign national uses
fraud to attain citizenship and then, based on that fraud insinuates herself
into a sensitive position in the U.S. government. I applaud the excellent
investigative work of the FBI, ICE and DHS, which led to the successful
prosecution today.”

“It is a sad day when one of our public servants breaches our security and
trust,” said Assistant Attorney General Kenneth L. Wainstein. “This
defendant engaged in a pattern of deceit to secure U.S. citizenship, to gain
employment in the intelligence community, and to obtain and exploit her
access to sensitive counterterrorism intelligence. It is fitting that she
now stands to lose both her citizenship and her liberty.”

“We became aware of this compromise in December 2005 and moved to address
any further damage,”said Willie T. Hulon, Executive Assistant Director of
the FBI’s National Security Branch. “The FBI worked closely with other
agencies to investigate this matter. We continue to evaluate our security
practices and will make any necessary changes.”

“Nada Proudy’s guilty plea should serve as a solemn warning to those who say
they’ve pledged their allegiance to the United States and then make the
conscious decision to place America’s interests at risk,” said Brian M.
Moskowitz, Special Agent in Charge of the ICE Office of Investigations in
Detroit. “Becoming a naturalized U.S. citizen is an honor and a privilege.
ICE will do everything in its power to see that those who achieve this honor
by fraud and deception are brought to justice.”

Naturalization Fraud

According to documents filed in court by the government, Prouty first
entered the United States from Lebanon on June 24, 1989, on a one-year,
non-immigrant student visa. After her visa expired, she remained in the
country, residing in Taylor, Mich., with her sister, Elfat El Aouar, and an
individual named Samar Khalil Nabbouth. In order to remain in the United
States and evade U.S. immigration laws, Prouty later offered money to an
unemployed U.S. citizen to marry her. On August 9, 1990, Prouty married the
U.S. citizen. As planned, Prouty never lived with her fraudulent “husband,”
but continued to live with her sister and Nabbouth.

Prouty later submitted a series of false, fraudulent and forged documents
and letters to federal immigration officials to verify the validity of the
fraudulent marriage in order to obtain permanent residency status, and,
later, U.S. citizenship, thereby committing naturalization fraud. On Aug. 5,
1994, the former Immigration and Naturalization Service granted Prouty U.S.
citizenship under the name “Nada Nadim Deladurantaye.” The following year,
she filed for a divorce from her fraudulent husband, and later obtained a
U.S. passport, which she used to travel overseas.

Talal Khalil Chahine

According to court documents, from May 1992 through April 1993, and again,
from August through November 1994, Prouty was employed as a waitress and
hostess at La Shish Inc., a chain of Middle Eastern restaurants in Detroit
that was owned by Talal Khalil Chahine. During this time, Chahine wrote a
letter for submission into Prouty’s immigration file attesting to the
validity of Prouty’s false marriage.

Chahine is currently a fugitive believed to be in Lebanon. He, along with
Prouty’s sister, Elfat El Aouar, and others were charged in 2006 in the
Eastern District of Michigan with tax evasion in connection with a scheme to
conceal more than $20 million in cash received by La Shish restaurants and
to route funds to persons in Lebanon. Last month, Chahine was also charged
in the Eastern District of Michigan, along with a senior ICE official in
Detroit and others in a bribery and extortion conspiracy in which federal
immigration benefits were allegedly awarded to illegal aliens in exchange
for money.

Employment at FBI and CIA

In April 1999, through a series of false representations and use of her
fraudulently procured proof of U.S. citizenship, Prouty, then known as “Nada
Nadim Alley,” obtained employment as a special agent of the FBI. It was a
prerequisite to FBI employment that she be a U.S. citizen. As a special
agent with the FBI, Prouty was granted a security clearance and assigned to
the FBI’s Washington Field Office to work on an extraterritorial squad
investigating crimes against U.S. persons overseas. During her tenure with
the FBI, Prouty was not assigned to work on investigations involving the
international terrorist group Hizballah.

In August 2000, Prouty’s sister, Elfat El Aouar, entered into a marriage
with Talal Khalil Chahine, the owner of La Shish Inc. In September 2000,
Prouty, while employed as an FBI special agent, used the FBI’s computerized
Automated Case System (ACS), without authorization, to query her own name,
her sister’s name, and that of her brother-in-law, Talal Khalil Chahine. In
addition, on or about June 4, 2003, Prouty accessed the FBI’s ACS and
obtained information from a national security investigation into Hizballah
that was being conducted by the FBI’s Detroit Field Office.

According to court documents, in August 2002, Prouty’s sister, Elfat El
Aouar, and her brother-in-law, Talal Khalil Chahine, attended a fundraising
event in Lebanon where the keynote speakers were Chahine himself and Sheikh
Muhammad Hussein Fadlallah. Sheikh Fadlallah had previously been designated
by the U.S. government as a Specially Designated Global Terrorist based upon
his status as a leading ideological figure with Hizballah.

In June 2003, through a series of false representations and use of her
fraudulently procured proof of U.S. citizenship, Prouty, then known as “Nada
Nadim Prouty,” voluntarily left her position with the FBI and obtained
employment with the CIA. It was also a prerequisite to CIA employment that
she be a U.S. citizen.

On Nov. 6, 2007, Prouty resigned her position at the CIA. Pursuant to the
terms of her plea agreement, she has agreed to fully and truthfully
cooperate with the CIA on any matters the CIA deems necessary to transition
Prouty out of its employment in a manner consistent with safeguarding the
national security of the United States. This cooperation includes
participation in debriefing and polygraph interviews.

The ongoing investigation into this matter is being conducted by the FBI and
ICE, with assistance from the U.S. Department of State, Diplomatic Security
Service, and the Internal Revenue Service.

The case is being prosecuted by Eric M. Straus, Chief of the National
Security Unit, and Kenneth R. Chadwell, Assistant U.S. Attorney, from the
U.S. Attorney’s office for the Eastern District of Michigan, as well as Mark
J. Jebson, Special Assistant U.S. Attorney and Senior Assistant Chief
Counsel for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
