Convicted Muslim Charity’s Terror Financing Indictment

Today’s conviction of a tax-exempt Muslim non-profit group created in part, according to prosecutors, to raise money to support HAMAS after it became a U.S.-designated terrorist group, and the conviction of five (5) of the group’s leaders is a big win for U.S. prosecutors.

Read the indictment below:


The Holy Land Foundation’s terror indictment for funding HAMAS’ maintained that:

  • “[T]he HLF provided significant financial resources to HAMAS leaders and key strategists”
  • [T]he HLF sent approximately $100,000 to HAMAS’ future Political Bureau Chief Mousa Abu Marzook and his associates.
  • “[F]rom 1988 through 1989, the HLF wire transferred approximately $670,000 to an account held by the Islamic Center of Gaza…established by Hamas spiritual leader and founder Shek Ahmed Yassin, and was used by him to conduct and coordinate HAMAS activities”
  • The HLF funded children and families of HAMAS suicide bombers and relatives jailed on terror-related charges to help “HAMAS’ efforts to win the hearts and minds of” Palestinians.”

According to the Dallas Morning News, a number of HLF defendants have family who are Hamas leaders:

  • Defendant Mufid Abdulqader is the brother of Hamas’ leader Khalid Meshal a/k/a Khaled Meshaal
  • Defendant Mohammad el-Mezain, an HLF co-founder, is a cousin of Mousa Abu Marzook, Mishal’s deputy, and married the cousin of Ghassan Eslashi, former HLF board chairman reportedly living in Syria with other Hamas figureheads

Rahm Emmanuel on Hamas

Will President-elect Barack Obama see Hamas for what it really is: radical Islamists who use terrorism as a tool for their religious and political objectives?


It remains to be seen.

Rep. Rahm Emmanuel, President-elect Barack Obama\'s Chief of StaffBut Obama’s choice of Rep. Rahm Emmanuel (Dem. – IL) as his White House Chief of Staff may send a message to Hamas.

In 2007, Emmanuel reportedly said that “Fatah and Hamas are tearing the Palestinian area of the Gaza strip apart in what they call a political rivalry, and the Palestinian people are paying a price for Palestinian violence.”

In July 2007, Hamas seized rival Fatah security officials in the Gaza strip after a bomb attack killed 5 Hamas terrorist and one girl.

Imagine the U.S. Congress — a democratically elected legislature — trying to ‘resolve’ their differences by kidnapping or killing Representatives, Senators, staffers, and constituents, That is exactly how the Hamas terrorist organization operates.

Obama’s administration must look at Hamas for what it truly is: a ruthless terrorist group with a history of deadly attacks — a number of which have killed U.S. citizens.
