On the Run from FBI, Saudi Given $80m U.S. Contract

A U.S. Justice Department indicted, terrorist-funding, money-laundering, American taxpayer-fleecing, FBI fugitive scumbag has been given an $80 million contract to supply jet fuel to American bases in Afghanistan. Who in their right mind would think it a good idea to award this lucrative contract to a person who obviously a criminal, but more insidiously, may actually be working against American interests?

Attock Refinery Ltd, a Pakistani-based refinery owned by Gaith Pharaon has been given this contract, despite his well-known criminal activities. Pharaon is an FBI-fugitive for God’s sake. Pharaon is wanted in connection with his role in the failed Bank of Credit and Commerce International (BCCI), and the CenTrust savings and loan scandal, which cost US tax payers $1.7 billion.

Pharaon was also an investor in President George W. Bush's first business venture, Arbusto Energy.
