George Soros, the
Democratic Party's wealthiest supporter, made a substantial contribution to the legal
defense fund of New York City attorney Lynn Stewart. |
| Stewart was recently
convicted of providing material aid to terrorists and lying to federal investigators while
representing jailed terrorist kingpin Sheik Omar Abdel Rahman, the convicted leader of the
1993 World Trade Center bombing. |
| According to records
filed by Soros' foundation, the Open Society Institute, with the Internal Revenue
Service, George Soros gave $20,000 in September 2002, to the Lynne Stewart Defense
Committee. |
| Interviewed in 2003
by the Washington Post, the Hungarian-born billionaire said living in George Bush's
America reminded him of life during the Nazi occupation. |
