Mosque Suit Says Manager Embezzled $300,000 [Islamic Center of Washington, D.C.]
Washington Post ^ | Thursday, October 12, 2006 | Jerry Markon and Michelle Boorstein

The Islamic Center of Washington, D.C., says in the lawsuit that Farzad Darui altered the names of payees on checks intended for legitimate vendors, primarily insurance companies, and substituted his own companies. It says the scheme began around 2000 and continued it until he was suspended last month...

Reached yesterday at Zaal Inc., a Falls Church real estate management company of which he is president, Darui declined to comment on the suit. His attorney, Victoria Toensing, said only that the allegations "are false and we will defend them vigorously."

Darui has not yet responded in court. He framed the issue as a management dispute in yesterday's Washington Times, which first reported the lawsuit. "This, from my point of view, is about me opposing a Saudi takeover of the center," he told the Times. "They've been trying to unilaterally appoint a new Saudi director without going through the board."

The Saudi government financially supports the Islamic Center, whose board is made up of ambassadors from Islamic nations to the United States.

So they make sure the Islamic Center is run by people with diplomatic immunity, who cannot be called to answer questions by any US court, or penalized for perjury, libel, or fraud in anything they say

We all know that money isn't important to Ramsey Clark. True socialists believe that the only thing evil is other people's money.

Pay close attention to this it is not just run of the mill
muslim madness.

Look who his Attorney is.

His attorney, Victoria Toensing, said only that the allegations "are false and we will defend them vigorously."

"This, from my point of view, is about me opposing a Saudi takeover of the center," he told the Times. "They've been trying to unilaterally appoint a new Saudi director without going through the board."

That jumped out at me, too.

Isn't Toensing on our side?

Thanks, I picked that for the excerpt because it looks like it's going to drag our Saudi "allies" through the puddle of blood left by the beheading mass-murdering Arab terrorists.

"His attorney, Victoria Toensing... "

Talk about "strange bedfellows"!

Victoria Toensing is a member of COMMITTEE ON THE PRESENT DANGER -- Fighting Terrorism and the ideologies that drive it.

Here is her biosketch from that site:

Victoria Toensing, Esq.
Former Deputy Assistant Attorney General, Criminal Division, U.S. Department of Justice

"It is crucial that U.S. government agencies develop processes to discern the good Muslims from the bad Muslims. Only then will we have the tools necessary to conquer Mid-East terrorism."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Defending a muzzie who is accused of ripping off muzzies...

Does that make him a "good Muslim"?

That's why I would think there is something more to this story.

Time will tell.
