U.S. U.N. delegate indicted for terrorist fundraising
Former Michigan congressman Siljander indicted
Wednesday January 16, 2008, 4:41 PM "A former Kalamazoo-area congressman was indicted Wednesday for his part in an alleged terrorist fundraising ring that is accused of sending more than $130,000 to an al-Qaida and Taliban supporter who has threatened U.S. and international troops in Afghanistan." "A former Fabius Township Board trustee, Siljander served in the state House of Representatives from 1977 to 1981. Siljander then served three terms in Congress until he was defeated by U.S. Rep. Fred Upton, R-St. Joseph, in the Republican primary in 1986." "In 1987, President Ronald Reagan appointed Siljander to serve as U.S. delegate to the United Nations for one year." |
