In May, 2000, Senatorial candidate Hillary Clinton received a $1,000 donation from American Muslim Council (AMC) founder Abdurahman Alamoudi,(1) a Falls Church, Virginia Muslim Brotherhood member and Hamas, Hezbollah, and Al Qaeda supporter who was also the first president of the Islamic Society of Boston mosque, later attended by Boston Marathon bombers Tamerlan and Dzhokhar Tsarnaev.(2) Alamoudi, an Eritrean immigrant who came to the United States in 1979 and became a naturalized citizen in 1996, was convicted to 23 years in prison in 2004 for illegal financial dealings with that included raising funds from the Libyan government for a 2003 Al Qaeda assassination plot against then-Saudi Crown Prince Abdullah.(3) In 2011, the Obama administration persuaded U.S. District Judge Claude Hilton to reduce six years from Alamoudi's sentence, for reasons that remain under seal.(4)

During Hillary's 2000 Senate campaign, the connections forged through Alamoudi's network proved valuable. In May, the same month Alamoudi made his $1,000 donation, Hillary raised $50,000 during a fundraiser at the Washington, DC home of Hani Masri, a supporter of Yasser Arafat.(10) In June, Alamoudi and Clinton both attended a $500-a-ticket Boston fundraiser for her Senate campaign organized by Tahir Ali, Massachusetts chairman of the American Muslim Alliance (later spun off into the American Muslim Task Force).(11) Founded in 1994 and chaired nationally by California State University professor Agha Saeed, an associate of Alamoudi, in 1998 the AMA had joined the AMC and the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) at a Brooklyn College rally publicly calling for Palestinian use of "armed force" against Israel and referring to Jews as "pigs and monkeys".(12) During Ali's June 2000 fundraiser, Clinton accepted a plaque signed by the American Muslim Alliance commemorating her human rights work. She came away from the event with $50,000 in donations.

On October 28, on behalf of Hillary's Senate opponent Rick Lazio, New York Governor George Pataki, said, " Mrs. Clinton should say why she filed this under the American Museum Council, not the American Muslim Council." In response, Hillary's campaign spokesman Howard Wolfson claimed it was a typo.(16) Meanwhile, an unapologetic Alamoudi spoke to a rally at the White House, telling the audience, "I wish they added I am a supporter of Hezbollah. Anybody supports Hezbollah here?"

After Abdurahman Alamoudi was arrested, Mohammed Alamoudi filed libel suits in 2005(21) and again in 2010(22) to defend himself against charges of financing Al Qaeda and of hunting down his daughter in order to have her stoned, respectively. Meanwhile Mohammed, whose lobbying firm retained former Clinton Treasury Secretary Lloyd Bentsen, began funding Hillary's Presidential aspirations. Mohammed Alamoudi has been identified as one of the donors who contributed betweeen $5 and $10 million to the Clinton Foundation,(23) following an announcement that he would raise $20 million over 10 years to the foundation.(24)
Just how many more times do we allow these TRAITORS to abuse us?
Lock her up!
What you wanna bet he would have been allowed in had Hillary won?

“...Under the settlement, Chagoury is essentially dropping the lawsuit, but he managed to extract a confirmation from the government that he’s never been on a U.S. sanctions list and that financial institutions are free to do business with him.
