CLF’s recent attack on Ohio Democrat Aftab Pureval, for example, accuses the Indian-Tibetan, first-generation American of aiding his former employer in making “millions” by “helping Libyans reduce payments owed to families of Americans killed by Libyan terrorism,” referencing the restitution agreement for families of the victims of the 1988 terrorist attack over Lockerbie, Scotland.
