Well, this just gets more and more interesting.
As we noted in the post below, Republican campaign contributor Abdul Tawala Ibn Ali Alishtari got indicted on Friday for attempting to send over $150,000 to fund terrorist training camps in Afghanistan.
He contributed a decent amount of money to GOP congressional campaign committees in the 2002 and 2004 cycles and managed get named to a number of ‘committees’ and ‘councils’ set up as perks for GOP campaign contributors, including something called the “White House Business Advisory Committee.”
Now a reader of the Cunning Realist blog has dug up the archived version of the website of Mr. Alishtari’s company, GlobalProtector, which shows that at the same time Alishtari was giving money to the GOP he was bidding on multiple government contracts — including ones with the Pentagon and the Department of Homeland Security.
