Money for Mujahideen!

September 13th, 2010

This is only the most recent in a string of examples of charities financing terrorism:


“After a week-long trial, a federal court in Eugene, Oregon has convicted Pete Seda, the founder of an Islamic charity accused of funneling $150,000 to Chechen mujahideen.” Read article here.


“The lifeblood of terrorism is money—if we can stop the flow of money to violent extremist organizations, we'll be safer both here and abroad,” U.S. Attorney Dwight C. Holton said.


Are we being effective enough in stopping that flow of money to violent extremist organizations? If this is what we uncover, how much more is there that we have yet to find?

I'm sure there are many, many more sources we have yet to uncover.

It's quite demoralizing when we work so hard to identify these minor sources of funding and the Federal government turns around and sells $60 Billion in arms directly to an Islamic nation:

Who needs secret funding when you can just buy it legally from the U.S.? Being an Islamic nation, it's only a matter of time before Saudi Arabia turns on us with our own weapons.

Our children's way of life is apparently for sale.
