Who paid for the mosque site?

The developer of the Ground Zero mosque, Sharif el-Gamal, 37, paid $4.8 million in cash one year ago for the building where the mosque is to be built. Yet a few years earlier he was working as a waiter in Manhattan restaurants, and no one who knows him has any idea of where he got millions. This intriguing information comes from a website called Hyscience, which links several reports by Fox News on el-Gamal’s background, or lack of background. Gamel himself refuses to speak to reporters or to say where the money came from.
