What do terrorists and the GOP have in common?
Why, they're both funded by this dude!
This just in from the AP, via Breitbart:
WASHINGTON (AP) -- A New York man accused of trying to help terrorists in Afghanistan has donated some $15,000 to the House Republicans' campaign committee over three years.
Abdul Tawala Ibn Ali Alishtari pleaded not guilty Friday in U.S. District Court in Manhattan to charges that include terrorism financing, material support of terrorism and money laundering.
From April 2002 until August 2004, the man also known as "Michael Mixon" gave donations ranging from $500 to $5,000 to the National Republican Congressional Committee, according to Federal Election Commission reports and two campaign donor tracking Web sites, http://www.politicalmoneyline.com and http://www.opensecrets.org .
The NRCC did not immediately return a phone message seeking comment Tuesday about whether it would return the donations.
In the federal indictment, the government said Alishtari, 53, of Ardsley, N.Y., also known as Mixon accepted an unspecified amount of money to transfer $152,000 to Pakistan and Afghanistan to support an Afghanistan terrorist training camp. He also stands accused of causing the transfer of about $25,000 from a bank account in New York to an account in Montreal, money the government says was to be used to provide material support to terrorists.
Dude also claims to be a peace activist, and a poet. Here's a sample from allpoetry.com:
A Tent In Morocco
By God's Eternal Rule
my life so spun
it still feels new
unrolling like twine undone.
Enter my Moroccan salon
let us push back
hearth by tents return
night's veil of black.
Drink my Arabian coffee
and after you drain
the fine grounds see
if remains tell fortunes.
A tajine of cous-cous
is always a delight
its aromatic spices loose
rising like a kite.
Follow the elders prayer
the moon attains heights
grey beards eyes there
see a purple haze.
To my hidden journal
what I publicly deny
I retire admitting eternal
feeling confused, blinded eyes.
I love listening again
memories are forever yet
to tales from friends
days are too few.
Come share chai tea
each sip so comprised
mint, rosewater so sweet
a vision of paradise.
This life is tough
I invite please read
and on livers rough
before resting your head.
There upon Morocco's ground
whisper secrets inhaled deep
embroidered silk pillows found
extolling peace before sleep.

J-Bide takes a shot
...reports the WaPo:
"I have reached the tentative conclusion that a significant portion of this administration, maybe even including the vice president, believes Iraq is lost. They have no answer to deal with how badly they have screwed it up. I am not being facetious now. Therefore, the best thing to do is keep it from totally collapsing on your watch and hand it off to the next guy -- literally, not figuratively."
--Sen. Joseph Biden
