It’s that easy. And given the sharp increase in the number of Muslims in the U.S. during the Obama administration, it will no doubt continue to be easy, despite the protestations of vigilance from these companies now.

“ISIS sent terror money to US operatives through eBay, PayPal: report,” by Joe Tacopino, New York Post, August 10, 2017:

A terror plot used eBay and PayPal to funnel money to ISIS operatives inside the US, a report said Thursday.

An American-born ISIS operative in his 30s was arrested last year in Maryland when investigators uncovered the eBay terror scheme, according to The Wall Street Journal.

The suspect pledged allegiance to ISIS and used eBay to pretend to sell computer printers but instead received funds from overseas through PayPal, the Journal said.

A recently unsealed affidavit said that the suspect was part of a global network and was told to use the money for “operational purposes,” meaning a possible terror attack….

    The tactic was announced on Fox News morning news & comment. Apparently, the investigative authorities have had this practice under surveillance and will track payment of these money orders to their respective receivers. Let us hope so!

    Meanwhile, Muslims who are aware of the jihad and who the jihadis are, do nothing to stop them, refuse to help the law forces to catch the jihadists are part of the fifth column of supremacists hoping to overthrow the US constitution and free way of life.

    When Zelaya turned the Honduras into a hell hole, I sent friend about about a thousand dollars via paypal.

    He’d already gotten his family from there to Mexico, and since he no longer had access to a Honduran ip address, or whatever the hell paypal uses to id, they not only wouldn’t release the money to him, they refused to transfer the money back to MY account.

    And yet paypal can’t stop terrorists from getting the money?????

    Ef paypal. Charge them, and ebay and anybody else like Facebook and Twitter for that matter, for aiding and abetting the enemy during times of war.

    Just block all transactions to and from a list of countries where Muslims promote and practice the murder of innocent humans.

    …………………

    Most of us think of eBay and PayPal a civilized way to buy consumer goods. But Muslims can turn anything to evil.
