Right, GW was governor of Texas then and Bill Clinton was President and privy to the CIA?
You misunderstand, the picture of President Bush with Saffuri and Alamoudi was taken at a meeting in July of 2002... Through a mix of civil-rights complaints, Old Left-style political coalitions and sheer persistence, Alamoudi helped inch the image of U.S.-based Islamists toward the political mainstream and induced politicians to embrace his organizations. He sought to secure the support first of the Clinton administration in seeking to repeal certain antiterrorist laws, but when Bill Clinton failed to deliver, Alamoudi defected to Bush, then governor of Texas. Alamoudi and other Muslim leaders met with Bush in Austin in July 2002, offering to support his bid for the White House in exchange for Bush's commitment to repeal certain antiterrorist laws.

What a bunch of Horse Pucky. Read what you just wrote:
"Through a mix of civil-rights complaints, Old Left-style political coalitions and sheer persistence, Alamoudi helped inch the image of U.S.-based Islamists toward the political mainstream and induced politicians to embrace his organizations.

Bush was Elected in Nov. of 2000, so how could Alamoudi switch to support Bush for "his bid for the White House in exchange for Bush's commitment to repeal certain antiterrorist laws in 2002?

Alamoudi and other Muslim leaders met with Bush in Austin in July 2002, offering to support his bid for the White House in exchange for Bush's commitment to repeal certain antiterrorist laws. The site that mylife mentioned states that GWBush and Hillary returned the contributions that were made by these people. Why would GWBush agree to meet with them in 2002?

The candidate Bush meets with Muslim leaders in Austin, Texas. Abdurahman Alamoudi (right of Bush) heads the sister organization of terror connected IIRO.

Hmmm, and Bush, as described in the photograph, was a candidate for what office in 2002?
