Abou Jahjah's political asylum lies
Abou Jahjah claimed in 2003 in a New York Times article that he joined Hezbollah to fight Israel but left in 1991 to gain political asylum in Belgium
In the same article, Abou Jahjah admitted to having lied about getting into a conflict with Hezbollah's leadership in order to have his asylum claim accepted
Abou Jahjah told New York Times,
Quote
''Most asylum seekers invent a story and I said, I had had a conflict with the Hezbollah leaders''
''It was just a low political trick to get my papers Now they want to use this against me''
