The Saga of Zahra’s Immigration
A week and a half ago Fullerton councilman Ahmad Zahra agendized an item to dole out $200,000 from the General Fund to immigrants hassled by Immigration and Customs Enforcement. He thought it was an excellent opportunity to burnish his own immigrant travails to the full house. He didn’t bother sharing any of the details of his own arduous trail to citizenship, of course – like his marriage fraud – a federal crime.
Fortunately, the distinguished ladies of FFFF’s Fine Arts, Cinema, and Book Club Division have recreated the elevation of the poor, Syrian immigrant to what he is now – a poor (targeted, don’t forget!) American citizen.
Enjoy the histrionics: the wistful smiles, the knowing head bobs, the empathetic tone.
I guess Zahra figures he can get away with telling only a small part of his heroic origin story, even if it changes a little now and then. The whole story, or most of it, was hidden for decades in order to create the Zahra brand he sells to the ignorant.
I guess we’ll see what the 4th District voters have to say.
I think we have an Academy Award nominee for best short!
Ahmad Zahra is a fraud. This blog has proven it time and time again. I guess the Voice of OC and Fullerton Observer won’t doubt their hero and don’t bother to investigate. Shame since his fraud is real and criminal.
That’s because they don’t care. There are more tears to be shed for the “underserved” if you think a border is meaningless.
What can you say?
Fullerton being Fullerton.
Zahra’s supporters don’t care that he snuck into the immigration pipeline via fraud. But others might.
The very definition of a parasite.
Ouch.
