As Ontario Superior Court Justice Shaun O’Brien did last year, rewarding the widow of a notorious — and deported — Palestinian terrorist an insurance claim on her dead husband’s life. Mahmoud Mohammad Issa Mohammad was a member of the Lebanon-based Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine. “I do not accept that, in providing his SIN, Mohammad misrepresented his immigration status,” wrote O’Brien. “I was a freedom fighter — not a terrorist,” Mohammad, who was born in Palestine in 1943, told the Star in 2008. Last week, Ontario’s Court of Appeal reversed the lower court decision, siding with Manufacturers because Mohammad had lied about his past and that falsehood was indeed relevant.
