Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

Canada Revenue Agency suspends, fines Islamic Society of North America over concerns it aided armed jihadis

Oct 2, 2018 7:36 am By Robert Spencer

In Islam, zakat — the alms required of every Muslim — can and should be given to further the jihad. So it shouldn’t surprise anyone that there are so many jihad-linked charities.

“CRA suspends, fines major Islamic charity over concerns it may have ‘provided resources’ to armed militants,” by Stewart Bell, Global News, October 1, 2018 (thanks to Mentat):

A major Canadian Islamic organization has been suspended and fined by federal charities regulators following an audit that raised concerns it had “provided resources” that may have been used to support to armed militancy.

The Canada Revenue Agency said it had suspended the Islamic Society of North America-Canada (ISNA-Canada) for a year effective Sept. 12 and ordered the Mississauga-based charity to pay a $550,000 penalty.

Government auditors alleged ISNA-Canada had “failed to conduct any meaningful due diligence” when it transferred $136,000 to the war-torn Kashmir region, where the militant Hizbul Muhajideen has been fighting Indian troops.

By acting as a “conduit” for other organizations, ISNA-Canada “may have, knowingly or unknowingly, provided the benefits of its status as a registered charity to support the efforts of a political party and its armed wing,” the CRA wrote.

While the Charities Directorate did not revoke ISNA-Canada’s charity status, the group was required to enter into a compliance agreement under which it must “cease its overseas operations.”

“We are saddened by this outcome,” ISNA-Canada said in a written statement.

It denied any links to terrorism and said it had “made progressive and important changes” to its governance and “how we operate as one of the largest Muslim organizations in Canada.”

“We remain politically impartial and are not in any way linked to any political or extremist group,” the organization said. “We will continue our operations and remain committed to always striving to be the best possible organization we can be in service to Canadians.”…

    Lies. Damned Lies. Muslims. . . . .And Canadian Collaborators? What a winning combination?

      Why would ‘Canada Revenue Agency’ worry about ISNA (Islamic Society of North America) is aiding armed islamic jihadists when the Canadian government itself does the same thing and even brags about?

        C.B., The Canadians I have known are genuine first class people who deserve better than they are getting from the inept and knowing traitors who are determined to destroy their freedoms.

        When “I” am handling “your” money, property, affairs, life, “I” have a DUTY to act in “your” interest and to totally focus on “your” interest to the total exclusion of “my” own. That is a short description of FIDUCIARY duty that does not apply in socialist dictatorships, regardless of the labels they use to hide. As part of that duty “I” am expected to either KNOW or Learn about any issue that might interfere with the proper performance of that duty. “Deliberate Ignorance Constitutes Knowledge of the Truth.” Wyle v R.J. Reynolds, 709 F.2d 585 (9th Cir. 1983). US Law that should make sense to anyone who is being betrayed by government officials in any country, or religious body.

        No person in a leadership position has the right, duty or authority to contribute to the death of the people being betrayed by the actions taken. But it is being done today just as it has been done in Nazi and Communist controlled territories for more than 100 years.

          The building in the picture above is the headquarters of the MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD in Canada. It has frequently been host to CAMPAIGN MEETINGS for bed-mate JIHADI JUSTIN TRUDEAU and his Lib-Jihad Party of Canuckistan.

          JIHADI JUSTIN never met a MUSLIM TERRORIST he didn’t like and instinctively reaches for the government checkbook whenever he sees one.

          Reply to F. Anderson: Canucks were suckered by Jihadi Justin. They were asleep at the wheel. Jihadi Justin attended every single mosque before his party’s election, but the lazy, slow-witted, naïve Canucks didn’t see the betrayal. Jihadi Justin did not visit every synagogue or church… just the mosques.

          The Lib-Jihad Party is in bed with the Muslim Brotherhood.

          Mortimer, I see no reason for me to disagree. How can we help others to see what they are ignoring now?

      CAIR should be looked at in the USA especially in Dearborn MICHIGAN

      • mortimer says

        Forensic accounting will reveal connections to the Muslim Brotherhood in other countries … because CAIR IS the MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD, a terrorist organization.

        CAIR never criticizes Hamas.

      There should be but I doubt it, not with a Liberal federal government.

    If they there is even one Muslims charity that does not siphon off zakat to violent jihadists I will saddle a large sow with wings, take her to the roof of the highest building in my town and get a running start for a flight to Orlando.

    The worm is slowly turning.

    Tax men are internal civil servants and they are getting suspicious about the activities of Muslims. Three strikes and you are out applies. This is Strike One.

    Foreign aid is administered by overseas civil servants and diplomats. They may never have met the tax men who took this decision.

    ”We will continue our operations and remain committed to always striving to be the best possible organization we can be in service to Canadians.”…
    You can be of service to the vast majority of Cnadians by pissing off back from whence you came. Trudeau cannot possibly be in the know about this or he would have told his muslim jihad, sorry, immigration minister to cancel the fine.

    The Islamic Society of North America, based in Plainfield, “Indiana, USA, is a Muslim umbrella group. It has been described in the media as the largest Muslim organization in North America. ISNA holds an annual national convention which is generally regarded as the largest annual gathering of American Muslims.” isna.net

    There are well over a hundred muslim groups that operate in America, changing our laws and our society.
    With the help of rogue legislatures, judges and others, they continually work to make America more and more Sharia compliant.
