Former Congressman funding Isklamis Terrorism?

[Gilding the Lily]

A federal grand jury in the Western District of Missouri has returned a superseding indictment that charges the Islamic American Relief Agency (IARA) and several of its former officers with eight new counts of engaging in prohibited financial transactions for the benefit of U.S.-designated terrorist Gulbuddin Hekmatyar. The indictment also charges former U.S. Congressman Mark Deli Siljander with money laundering, conspiracy and obstruction of justice in the case.

This superseding indictment paints a troubling picture of an American charity organization that engaged in transactions for the benefit of terrorists and conspired with a former United States Congressman to convert stolen federal funds into payment for his advocacy on behalf of the charity,” said Assistant Attorney General Wainstein.

“An organization right here in the American heartland allegedly sent funds to Pakistan for the benefit of a specially designated global terrorist with ties to al-Qaeda and the Taliban,” said U.S. Attorney Wood. “By bringing this case in the middle of America, we seek to make it harder for terrorists to do business halfway around the globe. The indictment also alleges that a former congressman engaged in money laundering and obstruction of a federal investigation in an effort to disguise IARA’s misuse of taxpayer money that the government had provided for humanitarian purposes.”

Actually I rarely care what you say. But you already knew that. I could care less that he is republican, I do care that far too many are willing to hang someone out to dry with out the benefit of a trial.

If you meant that he should swing if found guilt by a jury of his peers then say so. My crystal ball is in the shop and I lost my magic 8 ball.

Treason, the Valerie Plame case, yet no one took the fall except Libby and that was for lying.

Another Bush coverup!

Treason??

Lifting trade sanctions and accepting cash for missile technology sure smells like treason.....and following in Bill's footsteps,Hillary was caught courting Norm Hsu who also has direct connections to Bernie Schwartz from the Loral 'secrets for cash program'.You remember that one....I believe Bill undercut a federal grand jury probe of the ordeal by lifting sanctions ending the probe.

Typical Clinton coverup.
