PTTTTT, don't I remember seeing this name involved with Global Crossings?

Yep. Li Ka Shing owns Hutchison Whampoa. They and Singapore Telemedia (STT) bid on GX. There were concerns about Ka Shing being involved in the world's only "true" worldwide network that carries DOD traffic. So, Ka Shing pulled out, tho MANY suspect he is highly involved "behind the scenes" with STT (who now owns something like 62% of GX).

Charges laid over jihad web site
Was based in Montreal

U.S. authorities filed criminal charges yesterday against a Saudi student who ran a Montreal-based Internet site that was allegedly used to recruit and raise money for Islamic terrorists.

Charges of providing material support to terrorism were filed in U.S. District Court in Boise against Sami Omar Al-Hussayen, 34, a computer student at the University of Idaho.
