Temporarily? Does Donorbox think that the BDS National Committee is going to stop supporting Hamas? They share the same outlook and goals.
“US Fundraising Site Donorbox Shuts Down BDS Account,” JNS News Service, December 22, 2018 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):
The U.S. fundraising website Donorbox temporarily suspended the account of the BDS National Committee due to the group’s alleged terrorist ties and false claims over its nonprofit status.
Donorbox announced the move on Friday after receiving evidence behind these claims, including backing U.S.-designated terrorist groups such Hamas and Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, from Israel’s Ministry of Strategic Affairs and Shurat HaDin-Israel Law Center.
The company said it will investigate the allegations.
“This is a significant achievement in our efforts to counter the discriminatory BDS campaign. We are leading, together with civil society partners, intensive activity to counter the funding of the BDS campaign by revealing its destructive goals, its anti-Semitic nature and its connections to terror,” said Israeli Minister of Strategic Affairs Gilad Erdan. “Our efforts are bearing fruit. We will continue to work to reveal the true nature of BDS, counter its funding and curtail its impact.”…

BDS always reminds of that serial killer, BTK. In this time of lies and corruption and more lies and deception about motives, means, etc., investigation of a group such as bds is appropriate.

Robert Spencner may know but I wonder just how many Muslim groups, associations etc. there are in America and among these how many are funneling monies, donated or otherwise, into terrorist organizations..better yet just how many are actually terrorist groups them selves…I feel positive that somewhere in the chain most or maybe all are tied to the MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD.

At one time, I had a list. But, there are so many, and they keep growing more, it’s difficult to keep a current number. The moslims students association is on every campus in the country. They are under the umbrella of the mb, as is c.a.i.r,, isna. And al queda actually came about because of the mb. bin laden was a member and was encouraged to form the smaller group.
The isna has its own “news agency” and its own Excel program. Since they all go back to the core…islam…it’s like a giant hydra.
It can also be compared to a weed in the Tanglewood family that grows in West Texas. This weed is a vine. It may look like one spindly stalk with a few dusty leaves, but the part underground…goes on and on. you can’t just pull it up, as it is attached to thousands of others by one long root..
The number of ones involved in funding terror is the same number as those that exist. Whatever funds are given to a barracks, some of it goes to terror.
Many are involved in drug dealing and use that money to further the terror.
With the threat from isis supposedly lessened, al queda is likely to reemerge as a prominent group. They have never been completely destroyed. And since it is the core that is the cause, it doesn’t matter if the one who organized it is killed or dies…someone else will just take over.

Add the NCCM ( National Council of Canadian Muslims) to the list of worldwide terrorist groups controlled by Muslim Brotherhood. There are even quite a few that somehow have been “elected” into the Liberal Government. They all support sharia law and are trying everything possible to eliminate democracy, the Canadian Constitution and our Bill of Rights, supported and financed by Trudeau using Canadian tax dollars.
Trudeau claims to be a Christian yet has never been seen in any Church. He regularly prays and preaches in mosques, particularly one designated by American Homeland Security as a terrorist mosque.
Trudeau is a liar. Trudeau is dangerous.

Many non moslims terror orgs are different. If the founder dies, the group may disband. It depends a lot on why the group is formed and how much control the leader has over the other members. Also, if there is a second guy who was in the group from the beginning, or is of the type that the other members will look to if the leader dies. In these groups, each member has a particular position and when that person is gone, it affects the group according to the position held.
In islam, a terror group does not depend on the founder or leader as much because the real reason for the group forming is islam and not the “leader.”

ZAKAT GOES TO TERRORISM … Normative Islam… rather than an aberration:
Reliance of the Traveller, section h8.17 “The seventh category (of zakat-recipients is those fighting for Allah…”
REPORT OF 9-11 Commission: “Al Qaeda and its friends took advantage of Islam’s strong calls for charitable giving, zakat. These financial facilitators also appeared to rely heavily on certain imams at mosques who were willing to divert zakat donations to al Qaeda’s cause.”
“Charitable giving, or zakat, is one of the five pillars of Islam. It is broader and more pervasive than Western ideas of charity–functioning also as a form of income tax, educational assistance, foreign aid, and a source of political influence. The Western notion of the separation of civic and religious duty does not exist in Islamic cultures. Funding charitable works is an integral function of the governments in the Islamic world. It is so ingrained in Islamic culture that in Saudi Arabia, for example, a department within the Saudi Ministry of Finance and National Economy collects zakat directly, much as the U.S. Internal Revenue Service collects payroll withholding tax. Closely tied to zakat is the dedication of the government to propagating the Islamic faith, particularly the Wahhabi sect that flourishes in Saudi Arabia.”
FROM SHARIA LAW MANUAL “RELIANCE OF THE TRAVELLER”:
The most authoritative source for such information is a book which is available on Amazon called “The Reliance of the Traveler, A Classic Manual of Islamic Sacred Law.” That book has a whole section devoted to the rules of zakat, including “THE EIGHT CATEGORIES OF RECIPIENTS.” On page 272, section h8.17, one category is labeled:
“THOSE FIGHTING FOR ALLAH”
“The seventh category is those fighting for Allah, meaning people engaged in Islamic military operations for whom no salary has been allotted in the army roster (O: but who are volunteers for jihad without remuneration). They are given enough to suffice them for the operation, even if affluent; of weapons, mounts, clothing, and expenses (O: for the duration of the journey, round trip, and the time they spend there, even if prolonged. Though nothing has been mentioned here of the expense involved in supporting such people’s families during this period, it seems clear that they should also be given it).”
The prominent fundamentalist Sheikh Yusuf al-Qaradawi, for example, gave a fatwa obliging Muslims to fund jihad out of money collected for charity (zakat). (Fatwa from April 11, 2002 in Islamonline.)

I had to look up BDS. Makes sense. Also interesting that Meghan the Golddigger Markle also supports Islamic “charities” that filter money to terror groups.
