Michael Isikoff and Mark Hosenball report that the Justice Department [3]'s investigation [4] into Qorvis Communications [5] involves the Alliance for Peace and Justice, "a hastily arranged and now dormant group ... of well-established Washington organizations active in Middle East issues." The question is "whether the Alliance for Peace and Justice was used by Qorvis president Michael Petruzzello and his chief client, the Saudi Embassy's [Adel] al-Jubeir, to run advertisements that were really designed to burnish the Saudi government's image and influence the domestic debate on U.S. Mideast policy." Not disclosing the Saudi funding for the ads, which ran in 30 cities in 2002, may have "violated federal law on foreign-sponsored propaganda [6]."
