Gohmert rocks.

I hope there are quite a few more like him in the House... not only for these hearings, but also for when (e.g.) the shamnesty bill rolls around for debate...

The FBI Director didn’t know the mosque in Boston was started by Alamoudi?

Al-Amoudi was born in Eritrea, raised in Yemen, and later immigrated to the United States.

He founded the American Muslim Council, a lobbying group to advocate on behalf of Muslims in the United States, in 1990. The Council’s aim was to inform and influence both Republicans and Democrats). Until 1998, Al-Amoudi was involved with the selection of Muslim chaplains for the U.S. military (through the American Muslim Armed Forces and Veterans Affairs Council, which he co-founded in 1991), and acted as a consultant to The Pentagon for over a decade.

During this time Al-Amoudi served as an Islamic adviser to President Bill Clinton and a fundraiser for both the Republican and Democratic parties. More recently, Al-Amoudi worked with leading conservatives, such as Grover Norquist, president of Americans for Tax Reform. Al-Amoudi became a U.S. citizen in 1996.

In 2004 he pled guilty to three charges of illegal financial transactions with the Libyan government, unlawful procurement of citizenship and impeding administration of the Internal Revenue Service, as well as a role in a Libyan conspiracy to assassinate then-Saudi Crown Prince Abdullah. He agreed to cooperate in ongoing investigations in return for prosecutors dropping 31 other counts and possible reduction in a pending 23-year sentence and $750,000 in fines. He was sentenced to 23 years in October 2004.

Al-Amoudi was described as an “expert in the art of deception” in a report by Newsweek journalists Mark Hosenball and Michael Isikoff, for expressing moderate, pro-American sympathies in his lobbying and public relations work with Americans, but then expressing support for Hamas and Hezbollah at an Islamist rally.

July 18, 2011 - San Francisco, CA - PipeLineNews.org - In a previous article Muslim Outreach? Team Obama Moves To Release Convicted Al-Qaeda Financier Aldurahman M. Alamoudi From Prison we highlighted the Obama Administration’s effort to free [or seriously reduce the long prison sentence of] this terrorist Muslim Brotherhood operative. [Note his first name has been variously spelled in official documents as, Abdur Rahman, Abdurahman, Abdulrahman and Aldurahman. We have settled on the convention of using Abdurahman, the phonetic spelling used on Alamoudi’s checks during this period of time - see below.]

Alamoudi is a convicted al-Qaeda linked terrorist, who raised nearly $1 million in a plot to assassinate the then Crown Prince Abdullah, now King of Saudi Arabia.

Identified in government documents as a member of the Muslim Brotherhood [see, U.S. vs. Holy Land Foundation, List of Unindicted Co-conspirators and/or Joint Venturers, Attachment A, page 8 heading, “The following are individuals/entities who are and/or were members of the US Muslim Brotherhood] Alamoudi led what has been termed “...one of the most successful Brotherhood influence operations...in America in the 1990s...” [source, Shariah, The Threat To America, pg. 138]

The details of Alamoudi’s influence peddling provide a glimpse into exactly what comprises the Muslim Brotherhood’s cultural jihad against the West.1.

1. Alamoudi worked with both Democrat and Republican administrations [Clinton and George W. Bush] as well as power brokers associated with both administrations.

2. According to the bio appearing on the Charlie Rose Show website “...he was involved with the selection of Muslim chaplains for the U.S. military (through the American Muslim Armed Forces and Veterans Affairs Council, which he co-founded in 1991), and acted as a consultant to The Pentagon for over a decade....”

About that role, NBC News reported on 10/22/03, ABDURAHMAN ALAMOUDI is a prominent American Muslim leader, welcomed by presidents and founder of the Muslim chaplain program for the U.S. military. Now he’s in jail, caught heading to Syria with $340,000 in cash, money prosecutors believe came from Libya.” [see, Head of Muslim Chaplain Program headed to Syria with cash, posted at, http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1006629/posts]

3. Yet while “making nice” with American political forces, and gaining direct access to the WH, Alamoudi was blatant in his support of the terrorist group Hamas and Iran’s proxy army, Hezbollah.

“At a rally in front of the White House on Oct. 28, 2000, Alamoudi told the audience that reports he was a supporter of Hamas were accurate. “Anybody support this Hamas here? Anybody’s [sic] is a supporter of Hamas here? Anybody’s [sic] is a supporter of Hamas here? Hear that Bill Clinton? We are all supporters of Hamas! Allah akbar [God is great]! I wish to add here I am also a supporter of Hezbollah!” [source, Kenneth Timmerman, Islamists’ Front Man, Front Page Magazine,

Accused Terrorist
Wrote School Guidelines with ACLU
WHY Prayer to Allah is OK in Public School

[Much of this post researched and confirmed by Wes Vernon of NewsMax, over 23 references linked below]

Abdurahman Alamoudi, President of the American Muslim Council, supporter of Hamas, Hezbollah and accused of ties with Osama bin Laden, helped develop “Religious Expression in Public School” with the ACLU which holds the copyright. Launched by Clinton in 1995, these “Presidential Guidelines” greatly impact public schools today. Nadine Strossen, President of the ACLU, refers to these guidelines as the authority to support the ACLU’s lawsuits restricting Christmas celebrations and removing Nativity scenes from public schools.

School districts are pressured to utilize Clinton’s guidelines which he sold to America as “issued by 35 religious groups,” failing to disclose they include many civil rights groups and are all described by the ACLU as committed to separation of church and state. This explains Strossen’s haughty smile as she smugly said on the Lou Dobbs show, “All these religious groups agreed to it!” (12/19/03)

Alamoudi met often with then President and Hillary Clinton and has been described as Hillary’s friend and advisor on Islamic affairs. Protected by Clinton’s Presidential Guidelines, funding for Islamic educational materials began pouring in from Saudi Arabia and Muslim nations. Houghton Mifflin textbooks became saturated with Muslim beliefs as the Council of Islamic Education (CIE) helped write the textbook (originally denied by the publisher, Houghton Mifflin, until their Editorial Director was caught bragging about it in print).

CIE Director, Shabbir Mansuri, boasted that he is waging a “bloodless” revolution, promoting world cultures and faiths in America’s classrooms. CIE has warned scholars and public officials who do not sympathize with its requests that they will be perceived as racists, reactionaries, and enemies of Islam.

Islamic organizations that remind Muslims it is their RELIGIOUS OBLIGATION (Dawa) to promulgate Islam are applauding Clinton and his religious guidelines today:

Together the Clintons met with Muslim groups in the White House so often it became commonplace.

December 9, 2005

WASHINGTON - Concern is mounting over the connections between a Boston Islamic group and a high-profile Muslim activist, Abdurahman Alamoudi, after a recent statement by the federal government that Mr. Alamoudi had a “close relationship” with Al Qaeda and that he raised money for Al Qaeda in America.

Alamoudi - who is serving a 23-year sentence in federal prison after having pleaded guilty in 2004 to participating in a Libyan plot to assassinate Saudi Crown Prince Abdullah - is also a founder of the Islamic Society of Boston. The society is now embroiled in a bitter legal dispute over the society’s efforts to build a mosque with the aid of public subsidies.

That lawsuit, according to journalists and terrorism investigators, is part of a larger trend of litigation by Muslim groups that, they say, is having a “chilling effect” on the ability to report domestic ties to terrorism.

In July, Alamoudi was cited in a Treasury Department press release designating the Movement for Islamic Reform in Arabia, a U.K.-based Saudi oppositionist organization, led by Saad al-Faqih, as providing material support for Al Qaeda. MIRA “received approximately $1 million in funding through Abdulrahman Alamoudi,” the statement said.

“According to information available to the U.S.Government,” the statement continues, “the September 2003 arrest of Alamoudi was a severe blow to Al Qaeda, as Alamoudi had a close relationship with Al Qaeda and had raised money for Al Qaeda in the United States.” The Treasury Department has declined to provide further information, saying the material is classified.

Alamoudi was also one of the founders of the Islamic Society of Boston, which is engaged in a dispute over its plans to build a $22 million mosque and cultural center on 1.9 acres of land next to Roxbury Community College. Valued at $400,000 by the Boston Redevelopment Authority, the lot was sold to the ISB for $175,000 in a deal supported by Boston’s Democratic mayor, Thomas Menino. The city said the sale price had been lowered in exchange for an ISB promise to provide 5,000 books about Islam to Roxbury Community College; to provide the college with a lecture series about Islam; and to raise money for the college.

The land exchange prompted a lawsuit by a Roxbury resident, James Policastro, challenging its constitutionality as a subsidy for the Muslim religion. Last month, a motion by the ISB to have the Policastro suit dismissed was denied.

The land deal also prompted a series of investigative reports by the Boston Herald and Fox TV Channel 25, probing the alleged connections between several ISB leaders, including Alamoudi, and radical Islam. In turn, the ISB has filed a defamation lawsuit claiming that the reports were part of a conspiracy to prevent the mosque’s being built.

The reports alleged that one former ISB trustee, the Egypt-based Yusuf al-Qaradawi, was barred from entering America by the Clinton State Department in 1999 after openly supporting the Palestinian Arab terrorist organization Hamas.

The ISB denies that Mr.Qaradawi was a trustee of the group. He is listed as a trustee on the ISB’s IRS 990 forms for 1998, 1999, and 2000. The ISB has described this as an “administrative oversight.”

Bingo.

Progressivism is based on denying this truth, which has been demonstrated repeatedly throughout history, while proposing a truth which has NEVER been seen to be so.

And then they call conservative monotheists superstitious. THEY’re the one’s governing on the basis of a fairytale

These arrogant bureaucrats simply do not respect Congress.

To be fair, there are few in congress worthy of respect. Gomert is among the respectable and will be making news tomorrow with Michele Bachmann and Steve King.
