Quake aid 'is linked to terror suspects' [Islamic Charity for Pakistan]
The Times UK ^ | August 19, 2006 | By Dominic Kennedy, Chiade O’Shea and Hannah Devlin

THE Pakistan earthquake appeal has emerged as a potential link between some of the terror suspects arrested over the alleged plot to destroy transatlantic aircraft using liquid bombs, The Times has learnt. A charity founded to help orphans and disaster victims provides a connection between some individuals being questioned by police on suspicion of plotting “unimaginable mass murder”.

Crescent Relief London was created by Abdul Rauf, from Birmingham. Two of his sons were arrested as part of the bombing inquiry and are among the 23 suspects still being held by police after the alleged attempt to bomb planes flying between London and the United States.

The Charity Commission is looking at reports of links between several British charities and the alleged bomb plot. The public gave £30 million for earthquake relief, much of it raised in mosques and donated to locally based charities.

The discovery came as the BBC reported last night that, according to sources, martyrdom videos had been discovered on at least six laptops during searches by police investigating the alleged plot.

I guess this indicates how helping the Moslems out in their hour of need will make them like us more. Remember all that discussion of whether the U.S. was giving enough?

Generosity just excites their envy. Not that we shouldn't be charitable, but please, tell anyone to shut up who thinks anything we do is going to make them not hate us.

It's actually a good sign that they hate us. If people like that are your enemies, you're probably doing the right thing.

I have no problem with that - i also remember the thread bout how they demanded women relief staff wear Islamic dress.

In many parts Christians were not getting any aid at all = it was being filtered out. I gave through Evangelical organizations that had a track record of being honest [Barnabus Trust]

Everything is perverted to their ideological interests.

Sometimes you have to issue tough love.
