The Muslim FBI agent who subverted the case against Sami al-Arian

By Aussiegirl

Grover Norquist is the closest thing we have to an out and out traitor and mole within our administration. His connections to the White House are poisoning and diluting our war on terror through his lobbying efforts on behalf of known Islamist terrorist groups. Will America sell out the war on terror for campaign financing dollars and Muslim votes? How else to explain the curious coziness of the White House, President Bush and Karl Rove with known terrorist Sami al-Arian and his ilk, and for the promotion within the FBI of Muslim agents with proven dubious trustworthiness. How can the administration wage war on terrorists with one hand and reach out to them in the White House with the other?

One of the more disturbing developments from both investigations so far is the allegation that al-Arian and al-Alwani and other Islamic activists in the Washington area may have hatched a secret plan, according to other confiscated documents, to "infiltrate the sensitive intelligence agencies"
in Washington, and spy for the enemy.

Both Alamoudi and al-Arian were no strangers to the White House. During the trial, al-Arian's lawyers used his meetings with senior government officials, including Karl Rove in the White House, to defend him against charges he was involved in terrorist activities. They argued that official Washington would not have embraced a terrorist (even though they had embraced convicted terrorist Alamoudi).

But that may have been part of the plan. Al-Arian had ingratiated himself with Rove's best friend Grover Norquist, a powerful GOP operative in Washington sympathetic to Muslim causes. Norquist, whose name was invoked by al-Arian's lawyers in the trial, started an Islamic lobbying group several years ago and recently married a Palestinian Muslim activist. The Islamic group, which was founded with seed money from Alamoudi, has placed a number of questionable Muslim activists -- including the son of a Wahhabi preacher who helped Osama bin Laden's second in command raise money -- inside the Bush administration, including the White House, the Transportation Department and the Homeland Security Department, as well as other sensitive
agencies.

Al-Arian, who has met privately with Norquist in his Washington offices, has said that Norquist "delivered" on his promise to get President Bush, via Rove, to agree to end the government's use of undisclosed evidence to deport suspected Middle Eastern terrorists.
