A former Republican congressman from Michigan who has dedicated himself to building ties between Christians and Muslims was indicted in federal court yesterday for alleged ties to an Islamic charity that sent money to suspected terrorists.

Interesting. I look forward to seeing more of the details involved, such as: what is the criteria for putting one of these organizations on a watch list? How exactly did he launder the money? How were they able to trace money to that warlord? I am also wondering if his efforts in trying to improve relations between Christians and Muslims may have drawn attention from the Fed's.

If he is guilty then he needs to be punished severely, but some cases I have looked at recently, make it look like the Fed's are on witch hunts, and similar to the McArthy days.

Thanks for the link.
