Hillary Donor, Terrorist Sympathizer, Arrested
A terrorist sympathizer whose organization donated $50,000 to
Hillary Clinton's Senate campaign three years ago and who openly defended Hamas
during an earlier visit to the Clinton White House has been arrested.
U.S. officials confirmed Monday morning the arrest of Abdurahman Alamoudi, a
prominent member of the American Muslim Council, which presented a $50,000 check
to Mrs. Clinton at a June 2000 fundraiser in Boston.
Alamoudi also personally donated $1,000 to Mrs. Clinton. Her campaign
camouflaged the donations in Federal Election Commission filings as coming from
"the American Museum Council," but later said the mistake was a typo.
According to Reuters, Alamoudi is a board member of the American Muslim
Council, as well as the founder of the American Muslim Armed Forces and Veteran
Affairs Council.
U.S. officials declined to say whether his arrest was connected to the war on
terror.
"We are the ones who went to the White House and defended what is called
Hamas," Alamoudi boasted after his White House visit.
Alamoudi's arrest was first reported by al Jazeera, but neither they nor
Reuters noted his ties to Sen. Clinton.
