Terror Financier Brian David Anderson Arrested

Arrested in Spain, Anderson is wanted in the US and Canada for millions of dollars in fraud and he is said to be linked to the recently arrested Abdul Tawala Ibn Ali Alishtari, notable for having donated to Republican politicians. Both men appear to be suspected of financing terrorist camps in Afghanistan. Could be Alishtari gave him up.

This appears to be a summary of court proceedings already underway against Anderson in Canada. Also much more on Anderson here.

MADRID (Reuters) - Spanish police have arrested a Canadian man suspected of helping finance Islamist military operations, the interior ministry said on Monday.

The 61-year-old man, named as Brian David Anderson, is wanted by U.S. authorities for fraud amounting to more than $20 million and is believed to have helped finance a training camp in Afghanistan, the ministry said in a statement.

It said Anderson was thought to be linked to Abdul Tawala Ibn Ali Alishtari, a New York businessman who has been indicted on terrorism charges in the United States and is also accused of funding Afghan military projects.

The FBI document, released by the U.S. Attorney's Office in New York's southern district, alleges Anderson and daughter Bonnie Dick conspired to defraud people through a phoney loan investment program called Frontier Assets that began in 2001 and folded in July 2003.

Anderson, reported to be a resident of British Columbia who once had an address in White Rock, accumulated at least US$7 million in investments "by falsely promising high, guaranteed rates of return."

Strange that you omit his connection to GOP fund-raisers.

So? You lefties had no problem with Clinton selling out to the Chinese and letting them have super sensitive tech. You're such a hypocrite.
