Elgindy's association with a Ramsey Clark group and with a successful effort to transplant Kosovo muslim refugees to the USA is interesting in light of the Hague officials ordering Slobodan Milosovic to accept Ramsey Clark as his lawyer.

Anyway, ...

"Anthony Elgindy's brother ...KHALED ELGINDY was- or maybe still is- President of the Washington DC chapter of the AMERICAN-ARAB ANTI-DISCRIMINATION COMMITTEE aka ADC

ADC should ring a bell :

1980 : (FORMER SENATOR FROM S DAKOTA JAMES ABOUREZK FOUNDS THE ADC ----- See CNSS, IPS, PLO, IMAD HAMAD OF THE PLFP) Abourezk left the Senate and later founded the American Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee. He recently called on Arabs to "intensify their move to explain their points of view to the American public which is dominated by the Israeli media machine." ---- "20-Year-Old Republican Website Owner Sued by Former Democrat Senator, " By Jeff Gannon, Talon News, July 31, 2003

2002 : (MICHIGAN : UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN : IMAD HAMAD'S MICHIGAN ADC SPONSORS AND ENDORSES THE 2002 NATIONAL PALESTINIAN STUDENT CONFERENCE FEATURES ISLAMIC JIHAD'S SAMI AL ARIAN AS KEYNOTE SPEAKER - See also FADI KIBLAWI, TAMPA CELL) Then there’s the 2002 National Palestinian Student Conference on the Palestine Solidarity Movement, whose ostensible purpose was to promote divestment from Israel. "Annihilate the Jews" was chanted in Arabic at the University of Michigan conference, which featured indicted alleged Islamic Jihad frontman Sami Al-Arian as its keynote speaker, along with other anti-Western, anti-Semitic speakers, some with terrorist ties. [Imad] Hamad’s Michigan ADC sponsored and endorsed the conference, which was organized by ADC-University of Michigan chief Fadi Kiblawi. Under Hamad’s "leadership," Kiblawi authored an article stating he wished to "strap a bomb to one’s chest and kill" Jews. ---- "Madeline Sweeney might be turning over in her grave," by Debbie Schlussel

Anthony Elgindy's brother Khaled Elgindy is also involved with the group AAI:

NOVEMBER 1997 : (AMERICAN SPECTATOR REPORT : AAI, TAMRAZ, GABRIEL, ZOGBY & ABDULRAHMAN ALAMOUDI) "……. A few hours before Lebanese financier Roger Tamraz was to testify before the Senate Governmental Affairs Committee, committee staffers received a mysterious call from someone claiming to be Tamraz who alleged that Tamraz had been solicited by Gabriel to donate $50,000 to the DNC through the Arab American Institute, a Washington-based non-profit group. ……… Two things are certain about this curious case: Ed Gabriel has powerful enemies, and he made them by hitching his wagon to two highly controversial Arab-American lobbyists in Washington: James Zogby and Abdulrahman Alamoudi. In the "bad old days" when the State Department and Congress still considered the PLO a terrorist organization, both men were staunch backers of Yasir Arafat. More recently, Zogby has called on Arab states to reinvigorate the secondary boycott against Israel, which aims to deter U.S. companies by threatening to ban them from contracts in the Arab world if they do business with Israel. ….."-- by Kenneth R.

JUNE 1998 : (ADC / AAI, KHALED ELGINDY, CONYERS) The American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee sponsors a congressional briefing to publicize the letter. Roman Catholic Bishop Thomas Gumbleton of Detroit spoke at the briefing and described the deplorable health conditions he found during his recent visit to Iraq. In July, the Arab American Institute (AAI) sponsored a similar congressional briefing, at which Khaled Elgindy of the AAI showed slides of his visit to Iraq and Carl LeVan of Representative Conyers’ office described the letter in detail and urged the staff members in attendance to encourage their congressmen to sign on. LeVan said that the letter will probably not be sent until October, so as to get as many signatures as possible. http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/695883/posts?page=70

Anthony Elgindy's brother Khaled Elgindy was also on the Executive board of the AMC, the American Muslim Council which was listed as the "American Museum Council" on Hillary Clinton's campaign donor FEC report. The father of Anthony Elgindy and Khaled Elgindy was on the boards of Benevolence International and Global Relief , both organizations involved in the Balkans. He also ran a tour business for Muslim pilgrims headed to Mecca and Medina for the hajj which didn't get rave reviews from his fellow muslims who found him to be a fraud.
