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.
“Gaza Imam indicted for smuggling funds from Malaysia charities to Hamas,” by Yonah Jeremy Bob, Jerusalem Post, February 6, 2020:
The Southern District Attorney’s Office on Thursday filed an indictment with the Beersheba District Court against a Gaza imam for smuggling funds from Malaysian charities to Hamas.
According to the indictment, the Imam, Walid Div, 43, traveled from Gaza to Egypt and then on to Malaysia on numerous occasions since 2013 to fly to deliver religious sermons.
While in Malaysia, Div was asked by Malaysian charities Aman Palestine and Mapim to smuggle funds back into Gaza for Hamas.
In 2013, he smuggled $3,000 on behalf of the Malaysian chapter of Aman Palestine to Hamas.
Div also worked with many of the same charities to smuggle funds to Hamas from Malaysia on other occasions, including contact with the Aman Palestine chapter in Gaza itself….

Its about time! Now lets see some prosecutions for purported charities that smuggle American dollars to these criminals. Given that K 9:60 is generally interpreted to require that an eighth of all zakat go to jihadis, even sporadic enforcement of laws against subsidising violent crime should cripple this evil cult. Is anyone investigating now? Anybody auditing any of these millions of dollars in illicit cash flows?

Who I wonder determines which islamic group is bad, hamas, and which islamic group is good?
I further wonder what criteria makes one good and one bad.
Is there middle ground in being a slave? Whats the compromise with someone who wants to kill you? Here take my leg and I’ll throw in my mother-in-law.

Gods people determine who is good and who is bad and their almighty sword ( USA ) will take care of people who wonder too much.
b.a. freeman says
judge not, and ye shall not be judged (luke 6:37, kjv).
sorry, Hoppla, *God* will judge, *N*O*T* His people. are U trying to get one of us stupid, stinking, knuckle-dragging, beer-swilling, bible-thumping, gun-toting christians to go shoot up a mosque? only a brand-new christian who is ignorant of virtually everything about following Jesus would make that mistake. What do U think “God is love” means? and what part of responsibility for one’s own actions don’t U understand?
so … are U a lying, cement-shake throwing, assault-and-battery committing, molotov cocktail-tossing hard-core leftist who is ignorant of Jesus, or are U a lying, stealing, raping, murdering pious (that word is key) muslim who is ignorant of Jesus?
did U like the way i put that? maybe next time U should be more cautious and do some more research before trying to stir up the stupid christians.
