In a court hearing in San Diego, Kenneth Breen, an assistant United States attorney, said the adviser, Amr Ibrahim Elgindy, tried to sell $300,000 in stock on the afternoon of Sept. 10 and told his broker that the stock market would soon plunge. "Perhaps Mr. Elgindy had preknowledge of Sept. 11, and rather than report it he attempted to profit from it," Mr. Breen said.


So, what did Mr. Elgindy, who was trying to sell $300k in stock, tell the financial world the day after 9-11?  Read it for yourself!


Immediate release

InsideTruth.com Implores All Traders, Speculators, Investors To UNITE And To Offer Support !

NEW YORK, NY -- (INTERNET WIRE) -- 09/12/2001 -- While we as a NATION are stunned by recent events in our country and while we prepare for the re-opening of our financial markets, the many helpless and confused members of the public will undoubtedly be subject to knee jerk reactions to liquidate positions and make financial decisions that may not be in their best interests. Those who have experience and those who have the wherewithall will be tempted to exploit our fellow Americans, who may need to sell, or who may simply be scared.

We make a request that You refrain from such activity. Do not engage in short selling of the Airlines Involved, (NYSE: AMR), ( NYSE: UAL ), etc.., Do not short REIT's Involved In New York Real Estate, & Do not short the US Dollar.

To profit from this tragic event would only reward Terror, and Terror cannot be rewarded. This was an act not about Religion or Politics but about Cowardice.

Resist the urge to take advantage of this dire situation and offer support for Our markets and fellow Americans.

The facts are simple, we will persevere, the culprits will pay, and the United States will be stronger for it.

We also ask the Authorities to Investigate any known securities here in the United States that may have played a role in helping finance Or launder proceeds that may have enabled such an atrocity to occur on our own soil, particularly securities with ties to fugitives and Arms dealers.

InsideTruth.com is committed to offering all of its resources in aiding the SEC and the FBI in this Endeavor.

May God Have Mercy On Us All.

This is just garbage. If this guy was shorting stocks, he would have advised people to sell, so his profits would be greater. The fact that he wrote this memo, to me, is a major piece of evidence in his favor!

Speaking of the "International Relief Association" :

The origins of the FBI's terror-related interest in Mr. Elgindy are unclear. But it might have stemmed from a tip that was provided by angry executives from small companies who banded together to fight him for wreaking havoc on their stock by short-selling -- selling borrowed shares in hopes of turning a profit if the stock falls. After Sept. 11, these executives approached the FBI with a tip about Mr. Elgindy's possible short-selling of key industry stocks ahead of the terrorist attacks, the executives involved said. His adversaries also pointed out that Mr. Elgindy is a Muslim whose brother, Khaled Elgindy , is active in Islamic advocacy groups in Washington. Khaled Elgindy delivered humanitarian aid to Iraqis in May 1998 with a U.S. group called the International Relief Association, according to news accounts at the time.
--"McDermott, Bonior And Thompson- Did The Democrats and Their Media Allies Make A Deal with Hussein, "http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/947237/posts

... and The Elgindy clan is associated with the Dems.

Now "Life for Relief and Development" is also known for one of its backers, a guy named al Khafaji whose name is one of two on the UN Oil for Food bribe list released some time ago that got the Oil for Food scandal boiling fast on ol' Kofi Annan:

* Life for Relief & Development aka LRD :

2002 fall : (BAGHDAD TRIO TRIP IS FUNDED BY A CHARITY, 'LIFE FOR RELIEF AD DEVELOPMENT,' WHICH IS ALSO KNOWN FOR LAUNDERING MONEY TO THE TERRORIST GROUP HAMAS) McDermott was one of three Congressmen who went on Saddam’s propaganda tour of Iraq in Fall 2002. The trip was funded by Life for Relief and Development (LRD), a “charity” which laundered money to terrorist group Hamas’ Jordanian operation. LRD is funded in part by Shakir Al-Khafaji, a man who did about $70 million in business with Saddam through his Falcon Trading Group company (based in South Africa). LRD’s Iraqi offices were raided by US troops last week, and the Detroit-area “charity” is suspected of funding uprisings, such as the one in Fallujah. Its officials bragged of doing so at a recent private US fundraiser.
Mr. Alkhafaji, one of two Americans named in Iraqi newspapers as a participant in Saddam’s “Oil for Food” scam, gave Congressman McDermott $5,000 in October 2002 for McDermott’s legal defense fund in a lawsuit against him…. http://www.bowlingfortruth.com/fahrenheit911/terrorists.htm 38 posted on 10/06/2004 8:10:12 PM PDT by lwd

Well, as we all know by now, he's the guy who bribed UNSCOM inspector Scott Ritter.

I remember hearing something similar shortly after 9/11--trying to find what it was now and see if it's related to this. Here's one item--the original apparently isn't directly accessible through Google but ProQuest has it (http://proquest.umi.com/pqdweb?did=81199307&sid=2&Fmt=3&clientId=17733&RQT=309&VName=PQD) and a number of sites have copies of it posted:

---

James Doran, "Millions of shares sold on eve of disaster" (also on some sites titled "Millions of shares sold before disaster"), The Times, September 18, 2001, Final 4 Edition, p. 2

THE CIA has asked the City regulators in London to investigate
suspicious sales of millions of shares before last Tuesday’s attacks
in America in the belief that the paper trail will lead to the terrorists.

American authorities are investigating unusually large numbers of
shares in airlines, insurance companies and arms manufacturers that
were sold off in the days and weeks before the attacks.

They believe that the sales were by people who knew about the
impending disaster.

The investigators are looking at so-called “short selling” transactions
in several financial centres across the world involving shares that
dropped dramatically after the attack.

Short selling involves borrowing shares, selling them to a third party,
then buying them back when the price falls. Large profits can be
made if a share price falls significantly after it has been sold to the
third party.

The Financial Services Authority (FSA), the stock market
watchdog, was drawn into the investigation because it has a
transaction monitoring department that checks suspicious share
movements.

The FSA would not comment on its instructions from the CIA, but
said that its team of specialists would do all they could to help the
investigation. A spokesman said: “The financial authorities have
great expertise in this field and could have a big part to play. It is
something that is incumbent upon us all to look at to the best of our
ability.”

Market regulators in Germany, Japan and the US received
information of short selling of insurance company shares, airline
stocks and shares in arms companies — all of which have fallen
since the attack. Italian, French and Swiss regulators have also
joined the investigation.

Munich Re, Swiss Re and Axa, all insurance companies, are also
helping the authorities with the inquiries as large numbers of their
shares were short-sold before the attack.

A spokesman for Axa, a French company, said: “We have informed
the market regulators in Paris that there are concerns about short
selling.”

Richard Crossley, an analyst at Teather & Greenwood, a City
broker, said that he had tracked suspicious short selling and share
dumping in a swath of stocks badly affected by the terrorist attacks.

He said that on the Friday before the attacks, more than 10 million
shares in Merrill Lynch, the US investment bank, were sold
compared with 4 million on a normal day. He added that
exceptionally high volumes of retail and leisure stocks had also
caught his attention.

“Before the attacks there was no pattern to this phenomenon,” he
said. “The shares that were sold were doing very well and someone
was selling them in very large quantities with no real reason.”

Mr Crossley believes that someone with inside knowledge of the
attacks could have been making money on its expected outcome for
up to three weeks before the terrorists struck.

“What is more awful than he should aim a stiletto blow at the heart
of Western financial markets? But to profit from it. Words fail me,”
Mr Crossley said.

Trader, FBI Agent Convicted in Stock Case
1010 WINS - NEW YORK ^ | Jan 24, 2005 12:59 pm US/Eastern | 1010wins

Posted on 01/24/2005 11:57:20 AM PST by Calpernia

A former FBI agent and an Internet penny stock adviser were convicted Monday of mining government computers for confidential information they used to manipulate the stock market.

Former agent Jeffrey Royer was convicted of racketeering, securities fraud, obstruction of justice and witness tampering for leaking details of FBI investigations and executives' criminal histories to San Diego stock picker Anthony Elgindy.

Elgindy was convicted of racketeering, securities fraud and extortion for his role in the scheme. He dropped his face into his hands and sobbed uncontrollably as the jury foreman read the verdict; U.S. marshals led him weeping from the courtroom.

Prosecutors said Elgindy bet against penny stocks and drove down their prices by publicizing damaging information he received from Royer. Elgindy also extorted companies by offering to withhold the information in exchange for cash, prosecutors said.

Royer even tipped off the Egyptian-born financial analyst to an FBI probe into whether he profited from advance knowledge of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks by selling off stocks that plunged after the attacks, prosecutors said. Elgindy was not charged in that investigation.

Defense attorneys contended that Royer fed FBI data to Elgindy and another trader as part of a freelance effort to sniff out corporate fraud. They argued that Royer believed Elgindy needed the information as a starting point for finding out more about companies that he and Royer could investigate together.

Elgindy's defense similarly argued that the trader released the government information on his subscription Web site because he was crusading against corporate malfeasance.

Royer was an agent in the Gallup, N.M., office investigating mostly crimes on Indian tribal land. He planned to leave the FBI and work as a private investigator for Elgindy and other traders, prosecutors said. Royer also thought the trader and his associates would help him pay off tens of thousands of dollars in personal debt, they said.

The charges carry a potential sentence of 10 to 20 years in prison.

Another guy associated with LIFE for Relief and Development - aka International relief association- is al Hanooti.

And al Hanooti was one of the folks who Susan Lindhauer was in contact with. Susan Lindhauer was the former Democrat congressional staffer who was in the pay of the Iraqi Intelligence Service, who tried to deliver backdoor messages to the Bush Admin offering them corporate deals in exchange for lifting sanctions. Instead, the White House chief of staff turned her in...

JULY 30, 2003 : (SUSAN LINDHAUER HAS PHONE CONVERSATION WITH MUTHANNA AL-HANOOTI, PRESIDENT OF THE SOUTHFIELD MICHINGAN GROUP 'FOCUS ON AMERICAN AND ARAB INTERESTS AND RELATIONS' aka FAAIR) To demonstrate her commitment to nonviolence, Lindauer also shared with me portions of the evidentiary material contained on a stack of compact disks turned over to her by the government. The evidence against her, which includes wiretapped conversations with friends, neighbors, foreign diplomats and fellow activists, is currently in the hands of her new court-appointed attorney, who was not representing Lindauer at the time I spoke to her. Among the documents Lindauer showed me was a transcript of a telephone conversation with Muthanna al-Hanooti, the president of Focus on American and Arab Interests and Relations, a nonprofit organization in Southfield, Mich., dated July 30, 2003, two days before the Arab-American activist made one of his frequent trips to Iraq. During the call, Lindauer praised al-Hanooti for being a ''man who believes in peace'' and exhorted him to ''stay with God -- just stay with God.'' As the conversation continued, al-Hanooti seemed to hover between impatience and boredom. ''Other people are doing bad things, and they may try to use you as cover for bad things,'' Lindauer said. ''So don't let them.'' ''It's a very delicate balance, as you know,'' al-Hanooti replied. ''But, ah, we'll do our best, you know. We'll do our best.'' ---------------Source: "Susan Lindauer's Mission to Baghdad," ["spy" story -- long, strange], by DAVID SAMUELS, New York Times Magazine, August 29, 2004 Posted on 08/29/2004 12:38:16 PM PDT by 68skylark

In furtherance of the conspiracy and to effect the illegal object thereof, the following overt acts, among others, were committed in the Southern District of New York and elsewhere: .......

DeFazio is not just a member but also an officer of the “Progressive Caucus” in Congress, long allied with the Democratic Socialists of America.
The “Progressive Caucus” is chaired by Ohio Congressman Dennis Kucinich of Cleveland. This vegetarian, anti-war candidate for the 2004 Democratic Presidential nomination proposes replacing the Department of Defense with a Department of Peace.
According to the rating of America’s premier liberal organization, Americans for Democratic Action (ADA), Kucinich in 2000 voted on the Left side of legislation 86 percent of the time, and in 2002 he did so 80 percent of the time. Using this as a benchmark, DeFazio’s ADA rating was 90 in year 2000 and 95 – voting Left 95 percent of the time – in 2002. ---------The Face of Treason www.frontpagemag.com ^ | Mr. Ponte

At that time, Ms. Lindauer told an online newsletter in 2000, she met a businessman who told her that Syrian-based agents were responsible for the bombing of Pan American Flight 103 over Lockerbie, Scotland.

"Someone put acid on the steering wheel of my car on a day I was supposed to drive to NYC for a meeting at the Libya House," Lindauer said. "I scrubbed my hands with a toilet brush, but my face was burned so badly that three weeks later friends worried I might be badly scarred." Lindauer told the Middle East Intelligence Bulletin: "Also, my house was bugged with listening devices and cameras – little red laser lights in the shower vent.

The Information Superstation was founded by Dennis Dunbar, the owner of Wireless Data Systems, a videoconferencing and multi-media network provider. It had its debut in February 1998.

DECEMBER 4, 1998 : (SUSAN LINDHAUER FILES A FORMAL DEPOSITION DETAILING HER ALLEGED CONVERSATION WITH CIA OPERATIVE DR. RICHARD FUISZ IN THE LOCKERBIE / PAN AM 103 CASE) On Dec. 4, 1998, Lindauer, who has worked for four Democratic lawmakers, filed a formal deposition that detailed her conversation with Dr. Richard Fuisz, described by media as a multi-millionaire businessman and pharmaceutical researcher who was the CIA's main operative active in Damascus, Syria, in the 1980s. Fuisz had business interests in Damascus.
The operative allegedly told Lindauer, then a congressional staffer, that he had personal knowledge that the perpetrators of the December 1988 bombing of Pan Am Flight 103 over Lockerbie, Scotland, were based in Syria and that no Libyans were involved in any part of the attack.
The Clinton administration soon placed a gag order on Fuisz to prevent him from publicly discussing the issue.
Lindauer's deposition was submitted to the court in which two Libyan suspects were on trial and to U.N. officials, who attempted to persuade the Clinton administration to lift the gag order on Fuisz.
In the deposition, Lindauer told the court she had "never accepted any financial compensation from any of the individuals or governments involved in this case." Her reason for coming forward, she said, was a "sense of obligation to the cause of international peace and security."
,b>Lindauer said she had been invited to meet Fuisz by a mutual acquaintance because of her position as press secretary to former Rep. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., and because of her "known longstanding interest in the Middle East." Said Lindauer, "Wyden is now a United States senator, and I have continued my career in TV journalism and public affairs."
In the deposition, Lindauer stated, "At one point, I said to [Fuisz ], 'Oh yeah, everybody knows Syria did it, and the U.S. repaid them for supporting us during the Iraqi war by shifting the blame to Libya.'"
She describres Fuisz's response, including this statement: "Susan, if the (United States) government would let me, I could identify the men behind this attack today. I could do it right now. You want a police lineup? I could go into any crowded restaurant of 200 people and pick out these men."
Lindauer responded, "For God's sakes tell me, and I'll get my boss to protect you."
Fuisz then allegedly became angry: "No, no. It's so crazy. I'm not even allowed to tell you, and you're a congressional staffer."
Lindauer continued, "Then he repeated his story about the Terex lawsuit against both him and New York Times reporter Seymour Hirsch (the famous Pulitzer Prize winner), whose only crime was reporting Dr. Fuisz's testimony at the congressional hearing."
Lindauer's deposition ended with, "For shame on all of you!"
She published her email address, slndau@aol.com, along with the deposition so "journalists, researchers and others interested in learning more about the issue" could contact her.
The deposition created worldwide reaction, including in Britain where Sir Teddy Taylor, a member of Parliament, said, "Clearly such arguments which were made to a congressional aide in the U.S.A. called Susan Lindauer should have been considered by the police, by the foreign offices and the court authorities." - "Alleged spy for Iraq gave Lockerbie deposition; Former Democrat congressional aide was at center of CIA controversy," By Sherrie Gossett, WorldNetDaily.com, Friday, March 12, 2004

[A bit melodramatic...sounds like she and Joe Wilson have the same theatrical producer. ]
