Infiltration
It isn't just the military at Guantanamo that has been infiltrated. It is much bigger than that. The Washington Post story about the Saudi "charities" here in Northern Virginia (first spotted it on Instapundit) made me take a few quick tours of the web. First of all, the addresses of these places from Mapquest (address not actually given in the post article, but easy enough to find). The Safa and SAAR office is less than 7 miles from where I am now sitting. Also among the organizations targeted are the Sterling Management Group, which apparently does a lot of things. Among those things is investments. Looks like they created funds to invest and make money. Could be legit business or money laundering or trying to make money for terrorists. Who knows? At any rate, one of the investments is in Lynuxworks. It appears that it must just be an investment, as there are no Sterling Management people on the board or in the management of Lynuxworks. Which is good, because look at the business Lynuxworks touts - Homeland Security and Defense applications.
That might actually be news. Glenn wrote, "The big news isn't that Saudis are funding terror, which has been obvious for a long time. It's that here -- and with the FBI story from yesterday -- the U.S. government is admitting it." Not exactly - all of these organizations had been targeted by Operation Greenquest in early 2002. This seems to be the results of Greenquest. Another Greenquest target was Ptech, a company raided by the FBI last December. On the board of Ptech was the CEO of Sterling Management Group. I don't think the story is that the government is just admitting it - I think the story is the scope. This could be huge.
Oh, and I guess Mar-Jac Poultry's libel lawsuit isn't going anywhere....
