In 1990, Nosair was accused of assassinating Meir Kahane, the founder of the NYC based Jewish Defense League, a member of the Knesset, and founder of the Kach party, in Manhattan. The Kahane assassination occurred on November 5, 1990, shortly after 9 p.m., following a speech to an audience of mostly Orthodox Jews from Brooklyn.[4] A crowd of well-wishers gathered around Kahane following the speech in the second-floor lecture hall in midtown Manhattan's Marriott East Side Hotel. Following a skirmish, El Sayyid Nosair, who was among the crowd, was shot by Carlos Acosta, a police officer for the United States Postal Inspection Service. The two continued to exchange gunfire before Nosair was apprehended.[4] Nosair was taken to Bellevue Hospital for treatment of his wounds. Later revelations and investigations led to the facts that at an Islamic conference in Oklahoma in December 1989, Wadih el-Hage met Mahmud Abouhalima, who was later convicted for his part in the 1993 World Trade Center bombing. El-Hage's prosecutors said that Abouhalima told el-Hage to buy a .38 caliber revolver, that he did so, and that El Sayyid Nosair used that revolver to kill Rabbi Meir Kahane. The entire connection is also reflected in the Wadih el-Hage, Bureau of Prisons number 42393-054, in Florence ADMAX USP.[5]On 4 November 1998, the United States District Court Southern District of New York issued an indictment against El Hage and 20 other alleged terrorists (Case number-01-1535-cr(L). The charges against El Hage included conspiracy to kill United States nationals. As a result, the charges against him included murder of United States nationals, United States military personnel stationed in Somalia and Saudi Arabia, United States nationals and other “internationally protected persons” employed at the United States Embassies in Kenya and Tanzania; and concealment of the activities of the conspiracy, and perjury. On 16 November 2005, El-Hage moved for reconsideration that was denied in an order of the District Court entered on 5 December 2005.[6][7] [8]April El Hage, wife of El Hage and other family members said that, he did buy some weapons for Abouhalima but was told that the guns were for self-defense against the Kahane group. The prosecution of Nosair was hobbled by the US government’s absolute refusal to acknowledge the possibility that the murder was anything other than the work of a “lone deranged gunman” despite information gained during the course of the investigation provided by an FBI operative that he had “very close” ties to the radical imam Sheikh Omar Abdul-Rahman. Many boxes of evidence that could have sealed Nosair’s guilt on the murder charge and also shown evidence of a larger conspiracy were not allowed as evidence.[9] District Attorney Robert Morgenthau, who prosecuted the case, will later speculate the CIA may have encouraged the FBI not to pursue any other leads. Nosair worked at the Al Kifah Refugee Center which was closely tied to covert CIA operations in Afghanistan (see Late 1980s and After)
