Matthew, Waleed may be a "very nice" guy and all, but my point was, in picking out solely his case, was an inquiry about yet another tie to terrorist financing, the MSA.
Waleed served as president for a branch of the MSA. The MSA formally assisted three Islamic charities in fundraising, the Holy Land Foundation, Global Relief, and Benevolence Foundation. After that date, all three were accused by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) of having serious links to terrorism and were ordered closed.
Tony's father served on the board of directors for both Global Relief and the Benevolence Foundation. Tony's brother Khaled, beside his participation in the orgs born of Sami Al-Arian's IAP, like AMC, CAIR and of course the IIRO (financed by Mercy Intl, another "charity" Royer testified that Tony donated to) actively petitioned with these orgs to unfreeze the Holy Land Foundation's frozen assets.
My question to you, being as intimate with the Elgindy family as you appeared to have been, did it ever strike you that almost every male family member appears to be involved in fronts that finance terrorism? |
