GOP donor hit with terror charges Tue Feb 20, 12:48 PM ET

WASHINGTON - 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.

4. The funding of terrorism and drug and armsdealing is a BFEE standard operation

for years.

You think Plame was outed ONLY to hurt Wilson? I'd say it's because her firm was too close to getting near more BFEE's dealings in that region.

Does anyone think that Poppy Bush and his cronies woke up one day in the early 90s and decided to STOP dealing in drugs, arms, and terrorism?
