ravenseye, what is apparent here is some misinformation, calculated or not, that, I'm guessing, is motivated on behalf of Tony. On February 23rd of 1998, six months before the embassy bombings in Africa, Osama bin Laden proclaimed Jihad against the US. It is important to put things into a historical context when discussing the US's backing of the KLA during the Clinton administration. In 1998 Khaled Elgindy was in Iraq under the auspices of delivering "aid" to Iraqis with the IIRO. US intelligence reports claim IIRO is a "Saudi humanitarian organization that operates in Canada" and “has ties to Osama bin Laden." IIRO and Mercy financed the bombings of the embassies in Africa. A Mercy director ran Global Chemical, terrorist bomb-maker Mohammad Sallah's bomb-making operations that were shut down by the feds. Tony's father, Ibrahim, was involved with Sallah. This is also the same time-frame in which Tony was soliciting donations on SI for MTHO, an al Qeada humanitarian aid front operated by the KLA. Tony used donations from SI members to help get KLA members into the US. Albanian arms smuggler Florin Krasniqi was living in Brooklyn, where Tony was detained awaiting his trial. Krasniqi was smuggling American arms into Kosovo for the KLA in its' war against its' former allies, NATO and the UN. Krasniqi was called the "Brooklyn Connection". It was Albanian arms dealer Krasniqi who was writing those fundraiser checks to John Kerry which Truthseeker cut and pasted about. If John Kerry had been elected, the architects that were building on, what is now refered to as, the 1999 KLA "Intel disaster", Wesley Clark, Madeleine Albright and Richard Holbrooke, would've been able to officially establish an independent terrorist state in Kosovo. In December of 2001, 2 months after 9/11, NATO troops raided the offices of a US charity in Kosovo with links to two large Muslim charities based in Illinois raising money for Osama bin Laden and al Qaeda, The Global Relief and Benevolence International Foundations. Beneficiaries of Global Relief and BIF funds included Albanian "refugees". Tony's father, Ibrahim, was on the boards of both BIF and Global Relief.
It's important to keep the facts, as we know them, in their proper chronological and historical context. |
