Something tells me her film forgot to mention these tidbits relating to her career:

SEPTEMBER 11, 2001 : (ABDUL RAHMAN ALAMOUDI DONATES TO DEMOCRAT CONGRESSWOMAN CYNTHIA MCKINNEY) On 9/11/01,while the United States was reeling from the attacks of violent Muslims,al-Amoudi was one of several influential Muslims who rushed sizeable contributions to the Cynthia Mc Kinney for Congress campaign: earning her lone opposition to American retaliation. - "Clinton Era "Good Will Ambassador" Arrested," multi-sourced, 9/29/03 , vanity VIA FREEREPUBLIC

SEPTEMBER 11, 2001 : (ALAMOUDI DONATION TO DEMOCRAT CONGRESSWOMAN CYNTHIA MCKINNEY - HER SECOND LARGEST FUNDRAISING DAY IN 2001) Alamoudi also gave Cynthia McKinney $2,000 on Sept. 11, 2001, according to a Federal Election Commission (FEC) report. His donation was part of the total of 24 donations worth $13,850 on Sept. 11, 2001—her second-biggest fundraising day of the year, according to FEC records. - source : FEC reports via freeper Browardchad

2002 : (AL AMOUDI CONTRIBUTES $2000 TO CYNTHIA MCKINNEY CAMPAIGN) In 2002, Mr. [Abdurahman] Alamoudi contributed the maximum $2,000 to the campaign of Representative Cynthia A. McKinney, a five-term incumbent from Georgia who received substantial financial backing from Arab-Americans. The contribution caused outrage among voters in McKinney's district, because Mr. Alamoudi was among those named in a suit filed by families who lost members in the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001. After the attacks, Ms. McKinney suggested that President Bush had ignored warnings because a fight against terrorism would be good for businesses allied with his family. -- NY Times [spinning]

JANUARY 9, 2002 : (ALAMOUDI OF AMC ON HAMAS & HEZBOLLAH) AMC on terrorism: "We are all supporters of Hamas! Allahu Akhbar! ... I am also a supporter of Hezbollah" (AMC founder Abdurahman Alamoudi, Associated Press, Jan. 9, 2002). -freeper TLBSHOW

AUGUST 16, 2003 : (LONDON, UK : ABDULRAHMAN ALAMOUDI IS DISCOVERED AS HE ATTEMPTS TO FLY TO SYRIA WITH LIBYAN CASH; ALAMOUDI ADMITS HE INTENDED TO LAUNDER LIBYAN MONEY THROUGH SAUDI BANKS AND INTO THE US) It began on Aug. 16, when British authorities at London's Heathrow Airport discovered Alamoudi with $340,000 in sequentially numbered $100 bills as he attempted to fly to Syria. British officials say Alamoudi admitted he had received the money from the Libyan government [see "British Special Branch Report: Alamoudi Received Cash From Libyan 'Jihad Fund.'"].
...During his detention with British authorities, Alamoudi said specifically that he intended to launder the Libyan money back into the United States through Saudi banks, according to a summary provided by Special Agent Gentrup: "Alamoudi told officers that he intended eventually to deposit the money in banks located in Saudi Arabia, from where he would feed it back in smaller sums into accounts in the United States." According to reports of the questioning, Alamoudi said he believed it was against the law for anyone to bring more than $10,000 in cash to the United States at any single time, and used the Saudi cutout. In reality, U.S. law sets no limits on cash entering the country but does require the bearer to report amounts of $10,000 or more.
"Alamoudi was adamant that this was the only such transaction in which he was involved," according to the criminal complaint. However, under further questioning by the Special Branch of New Scotland Yard, Alamoudi "conceded he had been involved in other similar cash transactions involving amounts in the range of $10,000 to $20,000." - "Alamoudi and Those Bags of Libyan Cash," by J.

OCTOBER 13, 2003 : (THE ST. PETE TIMES' MARY JACOBY SAYS ABDULRAHMAN ALAMOUDI LED EFFORTS TO INSTALL RADICAL MUSLIM CHAPLAINS INSIDE THE US MILITARY & THE PRISON SYSTEM) Journalist Mary Jacoby, who reports on domestic Islamist networks for the St. Petersburg (Fla.) Times, tells Insight that Alamoudi spearheaded efforts to install radical Muslim chaplains inside the U.S. Armed Forces and the prison system. ...In 1993, through his American Muslim Council (AMC), he [Alamoudi] spun off the American Muslim Armed Forces and Veterans Affairs Council, one of three Islamic organizations to certify chaplains for the military. That same year, according to a pro-Alamoudi briefing published by aljazeerah.info, "AMC supported the launching of ... the National Islamic Prison Foundation." The purpose, counterterrorism experts [would later] say, was to take over Islamic chaplain programs and install more militant Muslims to indoctrinate inmates inside the U.S. prison system and network them after their release back into society. Sources close to the federal investigations tell Insight that more arrests are expected. The probe could prove damaging to key allies of President George W. Bush. Federal investigators tell Insight that one of the names that keeps coming up in the activities they are looking at is that of Grover Norquist, the influential GOP "big-tent" organizer and chairman of Americans for Tax Reform, a respected conservative umbrella group. Norquist was Alamoudi's most influential Washington facilitator, authorities believe, noting that Norquist reminds friend and foe alike that he is close to the president's powerful political strategist, Karl Rove. - "Alamoudi and Those Bags of Libyan Cash," by J. Michael Waller, Insight, 10-13-2003

2003 late : (FBI SAYS ABDULRAHMAN ALAMOUDI'S AMF FUNDED OREGON TERRORISTS BILAL & FORD) The FBI submitted evidence showing that Alamoudi's American Muslim Foundation (AMF), a charitable offshoot of the AMC, funded two suspected terrorists in Oregon who were arrested a year ago. Ahmed Bilal and Patrice Lumumba Ford received payments from the AMF's Portland, Ore., branch as they conspired to aid the Taliban regime in Afghanistan that at the time provided safe haven to Osama bin Laden and his al-Qaeda organization. Bilal recently pleaded guilty to conspiracy to aid the Taliban, and Ford faces charges of materially aiding al-Qaeda and conspiracy to wage war against the United States. - "Alamoudi and Those Bags of Libyan Cash," by J. Michael Waller, Insight, 10-13-2003

They should have got Alamoudi to appear in her video!
