Israel has deported at least two American Muslims who were staying in the West Bank and Gaza Strip. The deportations were part of measures adopted after an April 30 suicide bombing at a Tel Aviv bar carried out by terrorists with British passports. Deportation orders were also issued against foreign activists who were arrested in the West Bank last Friday on suspicion of involvement in terrorist activity.
