No, of course not, but every Islamic businessman in Western Hemisphere is raising money for them through Islamic charities. Or doesn’t the spate of such prosecutions ring a bell with the State Dept?

Isn't the current head of the State Department (John Kerry) the one who said, "There are no POWs left in prison in North Vietnam."

IIRC, he and McCain signed a document to that effect, after being taken on a tour of potential REAL ESTATE sites (or..eh... former prison camps) that Kerry's relative ended up controlling ?

A suggestion. Next time put

img width=’50%’

IN FRONT OF img src. That will limit the picture to 50% of the width of the USERS screen.

Sooooo, how would State know?
The CIA, maybe. The FBI, possibly. The NSA would know, but they probably can’t tell anybody (or they’d have to kill them...).

But State couldn’t find a hole in the ground if they fell in it.
