In the latter half of 2006, ALISHTARI facilitated the transfer of $152,500, believing that the funds would be used in Afghanistan and Pakistan to help train terrorists. ALISHTARI understood that these funds would be used to purchase equipment needed at a terrorist training camp, such as night vision goggles. Unknown to ALISHTARI, the man with whom he was working to transfer the money was actually an undercover law enforcement officer ("UC-1").

During other meetings, ALISHTARI offered to introduce UC-1 to an associate ("Imam-1") who, according to ALISHTARI, was a member of the Muslim Brotherhood. ALISHTARI described Imam-1 as a "fire-breathing" imam, who took the view that "the axis of the Islamic world is about Jerusalem and defeating the Jews." ALISTHARI additionally stated that Imam-1 was a "recruiter" who placed people to "work" in Bosnia and Chechnya. In September 2006, ALISHTARI in fact arranged for a meeting between Imam-1 and UC-1 at a New York City hotel room.

Since we’ve all learned a little bit more about the Muslim Brotherhood from recent events, when I came across this reference to a case in New York just last year, I thought it might be of some interest.
