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

Millions in coronavirus aid for “Palestinians” from Canada, EU, UK and others went to jihad-linked organizations

May 25, 2020 9:00 am By Robert Spencer

This is no surprise. Non-Muslims paying for the upkeep of Muslims is a Qur’anic dictate:

“Fight those who believe not in Allah nor the Last Day, nor hold that forbidden which hath been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger, nor acknowledge the religion of Truth, (even if they are) of the People of the Book, until they pay the Jizya with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued” (Qur’an 9:29).

The caliph Umar said the jizya payments from the dhimmis were the source of the Muslims’ livelihood:

“Narrated Juwairiya bin Qudama at-Tamimi: We said to `Umar bin Al-Khattab, ‘O Chief of the believers! Advise us.’ He said, ‘I advise you to fulfill Allah’s Convention (made with the Dhimmis) as it is the convention of your Prophet and the source of the livelihood of your dependents (i.e. the taxes from the Dhimmis.)’” (Bukhari 4.53.388)

UK jihad preacher Anjem Choudary said in February 2013:

“We are on Jihad Seekers Allowance, We take the Jizya (protection money paid to Muslims by non-Muslims) which is ours anyway. The normal situation is to take money from the Kafir (non-Muslim), isn’t it? So this is normal situation. They give us the money. You work, give us the money. Allah Akbar, we take the money. Hopefully there is no one from the DSS (Department of Social Security) listening. Ah, but you see people will say you are not working. But the normal situation is for you to take money from the Kuffar (non-Muslim) So we take Jihad Seeker’s Allowance.”

“UN coronavirus aid going to Palestinian terror-linked groups,” by Lahav Harkov, Jerusalem Post, May 23, 2020:

Millions of dollars of international funding for the Palestinians’ coronavirus emergency response, coordinated by the World Health Organization and UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) have gone to organizations with links to terrorism, a new report by NGO Monitor found.

The research institution focused on the funding of non-governmental organizations found that several of the groups funded by OCHA and the WHO are tied to the People’s Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP), which is recognized as a terrorist organization in Israel, the EU, US and Canada, and had staff members arrested and indicted late last year for the murder of 17-year-old Israeli Rina Schnerb.

Among OCHA’s NGO partners with ties to the PFLP are the Health Work Committees (HWC), Union of Health Work Committees (UHWC), Union of Agricultural Work Committees (UAWC), Union of Palestinian Women’s Committees (UPWC), and Palestinian Center for Human Rights (PCHR).

HWC’s Financial and Administration Director Waleed Hanatsheh bankrolled the PFLP that murdered Schnerb, and is currently standing trial for the murder, as is Samer Arbid, UAWC’s financial director. UHWC was identified by USAID as “the PFLP’s health organization.”

The NGO Monitor report also pointed out that OCHA stated that the aid money was meant to “respond to the public health needs and immediate humanitarian consequences of the pandemic in the West Bank, including East Jerusalem, and the Gaza Strip,” but many of the activities funded do not appear to be vital or lifesaving. Rather, anti-Israel advocacy ventures were relabeled COVID-19 without substantive contributions to humanitarian aid….

Some of the countries that contributed to the COVID-19 emergency response plan were Canada, the EU, France, Germany, Ireland, Kuwait, Norway, Sweden, Spain and the UK, in addition to international organizations….

      Exactly ! One would think that was blindingly obvious.

      These Muslamic “charities” are all over Facebook. I’m damned if I’ll give a farthing to any of them 😡😡😡

      Support of Muslim terrorists. Exactly what the world can expect from Trudeau. Why not? He rewarded a convicted ISIS killer, Omar Khadr, $10.5 million after he killed an American soldier and blinded another.

    At least the US has finally learned to stop blindly sending millions to these terrorists. Time for the rest of the West to do the same.

      The US didn’t learn anything; TRUMP was the one who cut off the aid. And not without extreme backlash of every Democrat and even some Republicans. Needless the say the American people are divided like they always were — leftists hate Trump and everything he does, right-wingers love and support him. If Hillary won in 2016 you can bet that the US would be PA’s biggest aid contributor. Would you then still write that “the US has learned to stop blindly sending millions”?

      Let’s just pray that in 2024 there will be someone equally competent as Trump to replace him.

    And none of that “humanitarian” money could possibly have gone into the Abbas family and other militants personal bank accounts or will be used to pay play-for-pay “martyr” families.. Giving money to a Palestinian organization is like handing out money bags with large holes in the bottom.

      That is a name error from my browser, should be “Westman”.

    There’s a lot of talk now about the hegemonic shift to China. First they gave us the Belt and Road initiative, then they purposefully unleashed the Wuhan Virus on us and Europe for good measure. China’s in a win-win situation.

    For its part the Moslems made big progress where they now broadcast the call to prayer over loud speakers five times a day. It was permitted the practice to accommodate Moslems unable to attend mosque because of the Coronaviru (whatever that is). Now the talk is for the practice to be made permanent; to do otherwise would be… Islamophobic.

    Why do western leftists have such a problem dealing with the fact that palestinians continue to send the money they receive from the west to terrorist organizations? Because they keep lying that they are people so racist towards Jews, and so filled with hate, that they would take aid money for their own people and give it to terrorists who attack Israel and the people love more than they care about their own people.
    It is A difficult muslim behavior to accept, because white western leftist do not admit that any people is different than any other. So the idea that arab muslims, banned from going to europe between the fall of rome and the end of WW2, that are well aware of inequality, and have A plan to use western fear of being called racist, as well as lies, demographics, and tyranny to conquer the west and Israel, is an idea completely foreign to them, which is helped by the western media whose owners have their own tyrannical plans to deal with their own illegitimacy, by ending western laws and justice. Just like you wont accept A muslim saying I am in charge because I have the most guns, you wont accept many billionaires who also say I am rich because I had the most guns when we were embezzling tax money in your nation.
    Lets hope for A massive increase in free speech and critical thinking. Morality would help as well. In G-d I trust.
