April 1, 2002 -- FEDERAL law enforcement has kicked over quite an anthill in Northern Virginia. A U.S. Treasury task force, Operation Green Quest, has been investigating the funding of Islamic terror. Raids on March 20 struck an extraordinary array of financial, charitable and ostensibly religious entities identified with Muslim and Arab concerns in this country, most of them headquartered in Northern Virginia.

WHy do you want to waste time keeping these people under lock and key? Kick them out of Saudi Arabia into Pakistan and take the oil. Then, next Nuke Pakistan. Voila, problem solved!

And now we're prosecuting a man we should be celebrating -- Slobodan Milosevic. Why does our government support these Muslims who are out to destroy our way of life, we support the Pakistanian government and the Saudi and we have sanctions against the Serbians and we put Turkey over Armenia (don't forget nearly 2 million Armenians were massacred by the Turks)

It's only business. ----------------

"Reaction to the raids suggests the Feds inflicted serious injury on the Wahhabi lobby, the Saudi-backed extremist network that largely controls Islam in America. Officials of the targeted groups as well as their non-Muslim apologists - notably GOP operative Grover Norquist, the chief enabler of Islamic extremists seeking access to the White House - have condemned the raids as civil-rights violations."

Grover Norquist------

Grover Norquist is one of the most connected members of the new right wing movement. He has close ties to the Republican Party, large U.S. business interests, and both the subsidized and regular U.S. media. He truly represents the nexus of politics, business and media.

As President of Americans for Tax Reform (ATR), Norquist helped the Heritage Foundation write the Republican's 1994 Contract With America. Shortly thereafter, Norquist led a right wing charge to "de-fund" the left, declaring that "We will hunt [these liberal groups] down one by one and extinguish their funding sources." [from Buying a Movement].

ATR, which is a 501(c)(3) charity, describes itself as "a coalition of taxpayer groups, individuals and businesses opposed to higher taxes at both the federal and state levels. ATR organizes the TAXPAYER PROTECTION PLEDGE, which asks all candidates for federal and state office to commit themselves in writing to oppose tax increases. "

ATR is funded by the Americans for Tax Reform Foundation.

Norquist was on the campaign staff on the 1988, 1992, and 1996 Republican Platform Committees, and formerly was Executive Director of the College Republicans.

He has also worked in policy positions for other Republicans, including serving on the National Commission Restructuring the Internal Revenue Service.

Adept at media appearances, Norquist writes a monthly politics column for the American Spectator magazine, and frequently speaks at regional and state think tanks of the movement.

He is also well-connected with large scale U.S. business interests, having served as economist and chief speech writer for the U.S. Chamber of Commerce (1983-1984).

Way to go Black Jade!

We must remember that Hillarys Abdurahman Alamoudi is a relative of this Al-Amoudi!

The American Alamoudi was a part time employee of the Clinton State Department!

He also is a happy camper at the Bush White House!

All of this "Saudi Subversion" is done in plain sight,readily found by googling !

Reaction to the raids suggests the Feds inflicted serious injury on the Wahhabi lobby, the Saudi-backed extremist network that largely controls Islam in America. Officials of the targeted groups as well as their non-Muslim apologists - notably GOP operative Grover Norquist, the chief enabler of Islamic extremists seeking access to the White House - have condemned the raids as civil-rights violations.

The Saudis offered a fraudulent "peace" plan this year intended to divert attention from their involvement in the horrors of Sept. 11.

Front groups interfacing between the Wahhabi-Saudi money movers under federal suspicion and the broader American public include two institutions active in the religious field: the International Institute of Islamic Thought (IIIT) and the Graduate School of Islamic and Social Sciences (GSISS).

He's got it down good, doesn't he? Sounds like us iin some regards, but better written. ;)

I think his talk about the Martyr's Money is the tip of the iceberg. I don't believe that a "Martyr" is necessarily a suicide bomber in the minds of the donation givers, but could be included, not reflecting well on their mentality anyway. The cover of the charities is an appeal to help whomever, but really intended to fund strife in the Caucasus and Central Asia to stop or delay competitive oil and gas production. See my comments here.

Follow the money...

Can't ignore personal corrupt aggrandizing activities too in these charity fronts, an American specialty, to wit, ripping off their own ethnicity. But recall those two charities shut down in December or January (can't remember their names.) Each had web sites indicating that they helped orphans in Chechnya, Tadjikistan, Uzbekistan, etc. It was interesting since they wholly avoided places rife with the poor, like Egypt, West Bank, Yemen, etc. I feel these American charities were fronts with an American face to get inside to these places to foment "jihad", being keeping Central Asia and the Caucasus off oil production. Profitable move by the Saudis and other OPEC beneficiaries. Highlighted by the fact that the quasi-Saudi operation "Al Qaeda" spent most of its efforts in those regions, obscured by the events of 9/11.

We know the ones that this'll be wasted on, but this is a bump for new readers. Amazing, isn't it, how short the Cycle Time is getting on the recurrence of "Deals" that involve fathers and sons. 

If we have one more generation that gets involved, it'll be monthly. The problem is diminished gene pools. They interbreed like Rats. :-)

THIS IS MY FAVORITE REPLY (well, other than Debs KooK calls) FROM THAT ONE LINKED THREAD ON HARKEN ENERGY --------

"Conspirators, Fanatics, Paranoids. . . Your contributions to the election of President Bush are welcome and have, for the most part, been helpful.

However, it would be advisable for those of you harboring such melodramatic psychodrama to wait until Mr. Bush actually occupies the oval office before carving the poor fellow up with your Bin Laden collaborator tales. When we have more time, we'll be happy to carve you up in return."  Posted on 11/27/2000 19:57:31 PST by Spinoza
