Reply #75: Missouri-based Islamic American Relief Agency ? Yes, this story will be swept under the rug

[ohio2007]

no telling where/who the slush fund money actually went to
or where it actually came from.

From his Wiki page: Mark D. Siljander

The former congressman has a book entitled
A Deadly Misunderstanding: A Congressman's Quest to Bridge the Muslim-Christian Divide that is scheduled for release in June, 2008.

Religion

Siljander takes an interest in conflict resolution, particularly in the Islamic world, and in recent years has tried to publicize the common ground between Christianity and Islam, particularly in the portrayal of Jesus in the Qur'an. This is a turnaround from a previous position in which he objected to the Qur'an being read at a prayer breakfast, asking the emcee: "How can you read the book of the devil at a prayer breakfast?" <1> He is widely traveled, and claims to have visited over 120 countries.<2> Siljander is also one of the few American politicians to have visited Libya in recent years.
