--- Begin Message --- -Caveat Lector- âCountdown with Keith Olbermannâ for Oct. 23
http://www.msnbc.com/news/984616.asp?cp1=1
(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE)
KEITH OLBERMANN, HOST (voice-over): Which of these stories will you be talking about tomorrow?
Abdurahman Alamoudi, tonight the man who helped set up the Muslim Chaplain Program, who met presidents Clinton and Bush, who tried to run $340,000 into Syria, is connected to Osama bin Ladenâs nephew.
The Rumsfeld leak: He is appalled, but he is elaborating. When is a leak a leak? When is it an accident? When is it a trial balloon?
Niagara Falls: The really, really, really, really high diver, still says he did it because heâs depressed, but another resident of the psych ward said she hear him negotiating a movie deal.
âThe Lion Sleeps Tonight?â âWho Let Dogs Out?â âBaby back, baby back, ribs.â If you ever heard these musical phrases repeat uncontrollably in your head, good news. Youâre not nuts. Youâve got an ear worm.
And please say âHelloâ to Sparky the beer drinking pony. Donât mind my friend here, heâs just a little horse. Wonder if thatâs Colt 45 that heâs drinking.
All that and more now, on COUNTDOWN.
(END VIDEOTAPE)
OLBERMANN: Good evening. He met with George W. Bush before Mr. Bush became president. He appears, smiling, in a photo op with the former president, Mr. Clinton. So, how is it that a man who has traveled in the highest of American political circles is also now suspected of secretly funding al-Qaeda and Hamas? And tonight, the dots are being connected and he appears to be tied also to the nephew of Osama bin Laden. Our fifth story on the COUNTDOWN: An indictment handed down against the man our military once turned to for Muslim chaplains. For the latest details on the case of Abdurahman Alamoudi, hereâs NBCâs Lisa Myers.
(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE)
LISA MYERS, NBC CORRESPONDENT: Keith, tonight federal prosecutors have indicted the founder of the Chaplain Program on charge that he illegally dealt with Libya and laundered money. But, there are even more serious allegations about him in some new documents.
MYERS (voice-over): Abdurahman Alamoudi, a consultant to the Pentagon on the Chaplain Program for more than a decade, now accused of helping Osama bin Laden and Hamas. Court documents filed late last night, claim Alamoudi has provided âfinancial support to Hamasâ and âfinancial support to fronts for al-Qaeda.â One of the groups allegedly tied to Alamoudi is a charity which gave this Virginia post office as its address. Alamoudi was vice president. Who founded it? Abdullah bin Laden, Osama bin Ladenâs nephew. Also ringing alarms, Alamoudiâs palm pilot which the government claims included the names and numbers of six designated global terrorists.
STEVE EMERSON, TERRORISM EXPERT: The public face of Mr. Alamoudi was 180 degrees different from the private face. And, the private face clearly showed that he was involved or directing fundraising for Hamas, fundraising for other terrorist groups.
MYERS: The government also alleges Alamoudi had a Swiss bank account and $2.2 million in unreported income on which he failed to pay taxes. Today, Alamoudiâs lawyer says he never supported any terrorist group. And that Osama bin Laden has dozens of nephews who have nothing to do with al-Qaeda. Yet, in an audiotape of a conversation obtained by NBC News, he seems to embrace violence, suggesting al-Qaeda should choose better targets.
ABDURAHMAN ALAMOUDI, ALLEGEDLY CONNECTED TO AL QAEDA (through translator): I prefer to hit a Zionist target in America or Europe or elsewhere.
MYERS: Alamoudiâs lawyer says her client doesnât remember saying such a thing and questions the tapes authenticity. Over the year, Alamoudi has been a familiar face in Washington. The Pentagon chose him to help select Muslim chaplains. He met with President Clinton, made six trips to Muslim nations as a goodwill ambassador for the State Department, met with candidate George Bush. Last year FBI director Rob Mueller even spoke to an organization founded by Alamoudi over the objections of some agents.
EMERSON: Alamoudi, himself, was not only able to insinuate himself, but he put others in place.
MYERS (on camera): Now, these new allegations are contained in court documents arguing that Alamoudi should be held without bond until he go on trial-Keith.
