US deports Iraqi man at centre of debate on refugee policy

NAIROBI/WASHINGTON, April 24 (Reuters) - The United States has deported to Rwanda a resettled Iraqi refugee who it long tried to extradite in response to Iraqi government claims that he worked for the Islamic State, according to a U.S. official and an internal email.

Omar Abdulsattar Ameen, who was granted refugee status in the U.S. in 2014, denied Iraqi charges that he murdered a police officer as an IS operative, and a judge found in 2021 that the version of events in the case against him was "not plausible".

It should be noted that both Biden and Trump have tried to deport Ameen.

So, why deport him to Rwanda and not Iraq?

If he were returned to Iraq, Ameen could face execution,” according to Iraqi documents filed in U.S. federal court.

Premise 1. Eyewitness testimony is notoriously unreliable.
Premise 2. The best evidence for the Book of Mormon is eyewitness testimony.
Conclusion. Therefore, the best evidence for the Book of Mormon is notoriously unreliable.
