that writer wrote an amazing article on Chertoff:



I've composed some questions to send to senators and to begin to consider. There are some of the yahoo groups I have backed out from as re: the volume of e mail. Feel free to pass these questions around wherever. I have simply gleaned them from the information below passed on by CLG.

Dear Senator:

We would like Mr. Chertoff's relationship with Dr. Magdy el-Amir made explicit. We believe this is important as pertaining to Mr. Chertoff's relationship with a former client who was an alleged Bin Laudin operative.

1. 'Did you shield your client, Dr. Magdy el-Amir from investigation as associated with said client donating money to a conspirator in the 1993 World Trade Center Bombing?"

2. We understand that your client, Dr. Magdy el-Amir donated $18,000 to New Jersey Republicans in 1996. Is it TRUE that a foreign intelligence report made available to the Chairman of the House International Committee alleged that an HMO owned by Dr. el Amir in New Jersey was “funded by Ben Laden,” and that in turn Dr. el Amir was skimming money from the HMO to fund “terrorist activities.”’…?

3. We understand that after merely 3 years, the HMO, American Preferred Provider Plan Inc, that Dr. Magdy e.-Amir created was insolvent with bills left behind totaling $45 million, thus, leaving in the cold many patients and care-takers. Apparently the money had been skimmed by Dr. Magdy el-Amir. Did YOU know where the stolen money was going?

4. Per DATELINE, and as associated with a report given to senior member of Congress, Ben Gilman, in 1998, when he was chairman of the House international Relations Committee, a foreign intelligence report that makes a startling allegation about the doctor, that he has had financial ties with Osama bin Laden for years. Is this TRUE?

5. Did you not see a conflict of interest related to you representing the soon-to-be Homeland Security Chief Michael Chertoff representing a known bin Laden operative and heading the U.S.’s investigation into the September 11th attack.? as described in the New Jersey Law Journal, August 4, 2003:

6. Is it true as related to the 9-11 investigation that you were considered to be 'the last word' as per the news media and the FBI?

( Since the September 11th terrorist attacks, Chertoff’s office has become the funnel for what is probably the most important criminal investigation in American history, as prosecutors and F.B.I. investigators pour in to seek the boss’s approval. What leads can we use from the search of a hijacker’s car in Portland, Maine? Where do the hijackers’ credit-card records lead?… For day-to-day decisions, Chertoff has the last word”…)
