In all the press releases I found looking up Alomari, his associate's name was spelled :
Muthana Al Hanooti.
Wonder how many fake IDs these folks have?

Hard to tell.
So far, the guy in my notes with the most documented aliases is an American, of course:
James Earnest Thompson aka James Ujaama aka Abdul Qadr aka Bilal Ahmed aka Abu Sumaya.
Who says Americans aren't the most productive people on earth? :)
Back to Alomari- I'm associating the name with a long thread Wallaby posted of 50 articles or so on Terrorism's Bagmen. I think it may have been 2 or 3 years ago, so I'm going to have to dig a little.
I've been up for 2 nights running now and I have to be up at 10 AM, so I've got to hit the sack. I'll see if I can find it later tonight.
JULY 30, 2003 : (SUSAN LINDHAUER HAS PHONE CONVERSATION WITH MUTHANNA AL-HANOOTI, PRESIDENT OF THE SOUTHFIELD MICHIGAN GROUP 'FOCUS ON AMERICAN AND ARAB INTERESTS AND RELATIONS' aka FAAIR; See also TERROR CHARITIES, LIFE FOR RELIEF AND DEVELOPMENT, HAMAS ) To demonstrate her commitment to nonviolence, Lindauer also shared with me portions of the evidentiary material contained on a stack of compact disks turned over to her by the government. The evidence against her, which includes wiretapped conversations with friends, neighbors, foreign diplomats and fellow activists, is currently in the hands of her new court-appointed attorney, who was not representing Lindauer at the time I spoke to her. Among the documents Lindauer showed me was a transcript of a telephone conversation with Muthanna al-Hanooti, the president of Focus on American and Arab Interests and Relations, a nonprofit organization in Southfield, Mich., dated July 30, 2003, two days before the Arab-American activist made one of his frequent trips to Iraq. During the call, Lindauer praised al-Hanooti for being a ''man who believes in peace'' and exhorted him to ''stay with God -- just stay with God.'' As the conversation continued, al-Hanooti seemed to hover between impatience and boredom. ''Other people are doing bad things, and they may try to use you as cover for bad things,'' Lindauer said. ''So don't let them.'' ''It's a very delicate balance, as you know,'' al-Hanooti replied. ''But, ah, we'll do our best, you know. We'll do our best.''

Muthanna al Hanooti is associated with Mohammed Alomari:
One of those investigations apparently involves Hamad's close ties to Muthanna Al-Hanooti, Mohammed Alomari, and their charities, LIFE for Relief and Development and FAAIR (Focus on Arab American Issues and Reform). Hidden in an Orthodox Jewish neighborhood in Southfield, Michigan, LIFE is believed to fund Hamas via contributions to Hamas front groups identified in 2001 by FBI Assistant Director for Counterterrorism and Counterintelligence, Dale Watson.
One such front, Human Appeal International, believed by the FBI to be Hamas' Jordanian operation, was listed in LIFE tax returns as one of three supported organizations receiving millions in contributions. Human Appeal and another organization LIFE works with, Human Relief Foundation, are listed as participants in the "101 days campaign" website of Sheikh Youssef Al-Qaradawi, spiritual leader of terrorist group Muslim Brotherhood. The site is believed to raise money for homicide bombings Al-Qaradawi supports.
Alomari's book, "The Secrecy of Evil", and other writings allege Jewish control of the world and the Bush administration. His Daru Salam mosque radio website claimed Jews and the U.S. "organized" the 9/11 attacks.

2003 : (AMC LOBBYING SEMINAR : AL HANOOTI APPEARS WITH ISLAMIC JIHAD'S SAMI AL ARIAN) Hanooti appeared with indicted Islamic Jihad frontman Sami Al-Arian at a recent American Muslim Council lobbying seminar. ---------FBI, Justice PC Buffoonery Continues October 15, 2003 Abridged NY Post version ----http://64.233.187.104/search?q=cache:fY3h0n_bnWMJ:www.debbieschlussel.com/columns/column101503.shtml+%22MUTHANNA+AL-HANOOTI%22&hl=en
* LIFE for RELIEF AND DEVELOPMENT : LIFE's original registered agent (under its previous name, International Relief Association), Masood Aijazi, worked for Khalid bin Mahfouz, the financier of Mawafaq Foundation, designated a terrorist charity by the U.S. government.
[Imad] Hamad's relationship with these parties is long-term and tight. A 1999 press release by Hamad's American Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee credits Hamad with getting Senator Carl Levin, then-Senator Spencer Abraham, and David Bonior to grant LIFE a license to send millions to Iraq. "We have a special relationship with ADC here in Detroit." Hanooti said. "This is another example of the value of cooperation between our organizations . . . to advance our common agenda."
In May 2003, Hamad visited terrorist-sponsor Syria and Lebanon with Hanooti and Alomari. Given all of this, a recent FAAIR newsletter photo of Collins (below) smilingly posing between Al-Hanooti, Hamad, and Alomari, at a FAAIR event, is disturbing. It is bad enough that a U.S. Attorney would associate with known anti- Semites. Worse, if Collins' office ever indicts them, it could be embarrassing.
...Collins, too, has been a Justice Department disappointment, with a mediocre record of terrorism convictions. Some of Collins' blunders were made under the tremendous influence of Hamad. After 9-11, federal agents visited temporary visa holders from Middle Eastern countries for surprise interviews. But in the Detroit area, Hamad convinced Collins to send out warning letters asking the men to voluntarily show up for interviews at his office. Only a third did. Others disappeared. "It's like telling terrorists and aliens: We're looking for you, go hide," said one Special Agent in Charge, at the time. More frightening, a USA Today article implies Collins and Hulon may have employed Hamad as a translator. Their relationship is a little too close for comfort. In May, while other awardees brought their significant others, Collins was Hamad's date to a Detroit News awards banquet.

Note that al Hanooti is speaking on behalf of EPIC. EPIC was founded by Erik Gustafson , a veteran of the Gulf War, in 1998. EPIC as I recall, was the group which Ambassador Joe Wilson was involved with...
EPIC was involved in the attempt to "discredit" the UK Dossier on Iraq :
JUNE 14, 2003 : (EPIC IRAQ FORUM FEATURES LECTURERS SUCH AS GLEN RANGWALA) Glen Rangwala, PhD is a lecturer in politics at Cambridge University, UK. He has been a coordinator of the Campaign against Sanctions on Iraq for the past five years. His work on the allegations made about Iraq's prohibited weapons have been covered by every major news outlet, most notably when he discovered that the "intelligence" dossier released by the British government had been plagiarized from a PhD student's thesis. He acts as an advisor to British parliamentarians on policy towards Iraq. He is beginning an in-depth academic study on Iraq's changing society from 1990 to the present day, and will be assessing the outcomes of the US-led reconstruction attempts. ----- "EPIC 2003 Iraq Forum Online," June 14, 2003 Washington, DC, http://epic-usa.org
