The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) announced the arrest of Jordanian national Salah Sarsour in Milwaukee. Sarsour, who is President of the Board of Directors of the Islamic Society of Milwaukee (ISM) — Wisconsin’s largest mosque, is being held in ICE custody in Indiana.
Sarsour is also a board member of the national pro-Palestinian advocacy organization American Muslims for Palestine (AMP).
DHS says Sarsour is a terrorist and was convicted of throwing Molotov cocktails at the homes of Israeli soldiers. Sarsour then allegedly lied on his U.S. immigration applications to obtain a green card under President Bill Clinton.
DHS shared, “Today, @ICEgov arrested a Jordanian national with a prior conviction for THROWING A MOLOTOV COCKTAIL at the homes of Israeli Forces.”
“He lied on his immigration application and became a green card holder under President Clinton.”
“This terrorist will remain in ICE custody pending removal proceedings.”

Sarsour raised funds for the Holy Land Foundation (HLF), which was shut down by the US government. In 2008, the HLF was found guilty of funneling over $12 million to Hamas terrorists.
Sarsour has been tied to radical squad member Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-WI), who arranged fundraising events for her in both 2018 and 2020.
The watchdog group Canary Mission notes:
On November 5, 2001, Salah Sarsour was reportedly listed [p.49] in an 2001 F.B.I. Action Memorandum as a fundraiser for Hamas in the United States.
The memorandum stated that Salah’s “involvement with HAMAS” and his fundraising “activities” for the terror group were through the Holy Land Foundation for Relief and Development (HLF). The memorandum also stated [p.49] that Salah’s brother Imad was also a Hamas fundraiser.
Five individuals were indicted for funneling funds to Hamas in the guise of humanitarian aid through HLF. The men were all convicted and sentenced in 2009 to federal prison terms ranging from 15 to 65 years.
