At Least 17 'Charities' in the US Are Alleged to Help Fund Hamas and No One Seems to Care
Red State ^ | 11/17/2023 | streiff

Even as Hamas continues to hold civilian hostages, including about 10 Americans, no less than 17 Hamas-linked charities are operating in the open, sending money to Hamas or Hamas proxies and sometimes spreading Hamas propaganda in return.

A Middle East Forum investigation published in the Focus on Western Islam documents over $260 million donated to Hamas-aligned 501(c)3, tax-exempt charitable organizations. According to the report, "Donors include the foundation arms of household companies such as PayPal, Fidelity, Shell, J.P. Morgan, Bank of America, Schwab, along with major philanthropic charities such as the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation."

When the FBI is making a lot of noise about increasing the pace of its investigations into people with Hamas connections, somehow, these charities that are pumping money into Hamas while giving the donors millions of dollars in tax breaks are on no one's radar.

It isn't only large corporations and philanthropies that are supplying Hamas that contribute to Hamas' estimated annual budget of $2 to $3 billion. The US government also funds some of the groups with direct, in-your-face ties to US-designated terror organizations. For instance, American Near East Refugee Aid (ANERA) works closely with the Unlimited Friends Association, is aligned with senior Hamas leaders, and advocates killing Jews.

UFA often hosts events to sponsor “the families of martyrs and prisoners.” These events include collaboration with prominent Hamas figures such as Mustafa Sawwaf, who calls “Israel’s disappearance … a necessity [according to] the Koran”; as well as Mohamed Abu-Shkian, a senior Hamas leader who praises the “strikes of the mujahideen” and leads events in Gaza lionizing slain terrorist operatives.

On its social media, UFA encourages violent hatred against Jews, publishing posts on its official Facebook page promising to “free Al-Aqsa Al-Sharif from the filth of the most dirty Jews.”

Yet, ANERA is a regular recipient of US grants.

The faucet was shut off during the Trump administration, but it has received over $2 million each year of the Biden regime.

This is not to pick on one of Hamas' many donors. But when there are obvious connections between a so-called charity in the US and a designated international terrorist organization, one has to ask not only why they are still in business but why our government is giving them money. If charities can't find non-terrorist partners in an area, then maybe, now, stay with me here because this is going to get wild; they shouldn't work in the area. 

The List



2/ Some examples. Take Rahma Worldwide in Michigan, which openly partners with designated Kuwaiti terrorist group RIHS (how has the FBI not noticed this?) and is part of their "Uprising in Palestine" campaign in Gaza.

3) The Reach Education Fund in Illinois, whose leading official glorifies Nazism, posting a swastika and referring to himself as a follower of Hitler, celebrating the genocide of Jews

4) Baitulmaal in Texas, which funds an array of Hamas proxies in Gaza. It was officials include former Taliban fundraisers and hardline activists shared praise of "martyrs" who killed Jews

5) Islamic Relief in VA and CA, whose overseas branches openly fund Hamas proxies, and which the U.S. State Department has condemned for “blatant and horrifying anti-Semitism and glorification of violence exhibited at the most senior levels"— Sam Westrop (@samwestrop) November 15, 2023

6) Islamic Relief franchise's founder, meanwhile, in an interview with Hamas's official radio station, urged cooperation between charities and the Hamas "government". And here's Islamic Relief's logo at a Hamas rally in Gaza:

7) ANERA, whose staff member in Gaza has venerated the Hamas founder Sheikh Yassin, posting pictures of the terrorist leader.

8) American Muslims for Palestine, whose official Taher Herzallah, recently paused after talking about embracing anti-Zionist Jews only to remind his audience that "Jews" remain "enemy number one"

9) Pious Projects of America in Chicago, which admits openly to having handed Hamas's Ministry of Health $50,000

10) Heroic Hearts, whose “program coordinator,” Omar Hammad, is a unabashed supporter of Hamas founder Sheikh Yassin.


11) International Humanitarian Relief, whose founder praised the October 7th attacks and wished the resistance "victory" pic.twitter.com/qKi1yASPGF— Sam Westrop (@samwestrop) November 15, 2023

12) Helping Hand for Relief and Development in Michigan, which funds a Hamas proxy and whose chief partner in Pakistan, Al-Khidmat, is a proud financier of Hamas.


14) Who is funding all these organizations? Our data shows as much as $100 million from the federal government through poorly managed @USAID programs, but an astonishing $260 million comes from ...

Are these anything like the German-American Bund of the 1930s?
