While overseas, you were arrested, jailed, charged, and convicted for "subversive activities" not appreciated by the foreign government. It was years ago and you do not report the charge on your application.

Not reporting is withholding information.

It sounds like it can be logically explained to your employer.

Even if it were not a severe offense it is up to the school to decide.

I don't like how modern society judges people all their lives for mistakes that people make when they are young. While I think honesty is always best, I imagine being forthright with this will prevent you from being hired. I think anyone who is not "subversive" in any way, does not have their priorities in the proper place. I myself have been jailed for subversive activities. I don't think I will bring it up in an interview.
