I wonder about his foreign Muslim friends in college in Arlington 20 years ago.... were they sent here to go in deep cover then, too?

Adlouni worked as a Washington highway engineer from 1991 to 1998. Since then he has opened an import business, sold alcohol-free fragrances through his online company Muskcarrier, and produced a Muslim business directory. He and el-Hage also tried selling Tanzanite gem stones.

Via Google Search for Farid Adlouni I found this tidbit about his Muskcarrier business. Click on the link below (this snippet is about halfway down):

In search of saris or spices? Ethnic
Web sites hook immigrants to the Net

Some operators of immigrant-targeted sites say they have a larger motive than just selling their own products. Portland, Ore., engineer and entrepreneur Farid Adlouni hopes his online business, Muskcarrier, which imports alcohol-free Middle Eastern fragrances, will help many Muslim buyers become more comfortable with the Internet. Many, he said, are suspicious of the technology and what they see as inappropriate content on the Web.
"By providing these products, we're trying to attract people to really log on," Adlouni said.

I think that's about all there is on him via Google search. I'll see what I can find at UT-Arlington online.

I registered online at the UT-Arlington website. Since I was a registered alumni already (but not online), it was a breeze. I went to find him in the Contact Alumni link and found this. It lists a uta.edu e-mail address for him that look like it forwards to his personal e-mail address:

User Contact Form

The following is information on the person you selected.

First Name:   Farid
Last Name:   Adlouni
Class Year:   1986

That may be all I can find on him, but I'll see what other links they might have.

"Adlouni was also deeply religious and had a small conference room set aside for daily prayers....."


NOT allowed for Christians or Jews of course

This American "citizen" isnow selling "Tanzanite?" How very interesting - Tanzanite is Osama connected. Here's some stories on Tanzanite terrorism, plus a Daniel Pearl connection!

Diary From bin Laden Associate Shows al Qaeda Link to Tanzanite

The Wall Street Journal ^ | Thursday, January 24, 2002 | GLENN R. SIMPSON and ROBERT BLOCK

LONDON -- The diary of a former personal secretary to Osama bin Laden reveals that al Qaeda may have been using a popular blue gemstone to help finance its operations as early as 1995. The day planner of Wadih el Hage, who was convicted last year of conspiracy in connection with the 1998 bombings of U.S. embassies in Kenya and Tanzania, provides the strongest documentary evidence to date of al Qaeda's involvement in the tanzanite trade.

Bought, Sold by Militants Near Mine, Tanzanite Ends Up at Mideast Souks

Wall Street Journal | November 16, 2001 | Robert Block and Daniel Pearl

A trade group called the Tanzanian Mineral Dealers Association denies that Mr. bin Laden's al Qaeda has any role in the tanzanite trade. But in the bars and cafes that dot the streets of Tanzania's mining community, the radical connections are no secret. According to miners and local residents, Muslim extremists loyal to Mr. bin Laden buy stones from miners and middlemen, smuggling them out of Tanzania to free-trade havens such as Dubai and Hong Kong.
