SO you would have expected the islamic relief fund to work with the Salvation Army? If they had, would we be attacking the Salvation Army?
If I see an Arab man putting money in the Salvation Army pot at Christmas, should I call up the national organization and complain about it?
What is your point?
Apparently, the Islamic Relief fund has a relationship with the LDS relief organization, which is mutually helpful toward getting aid to people who need it. So it’s not just that the islamist organization doesn’t have boots to go on the ground in Haiti, it’s something that is already set up.
It seems to involve the fact that the Islamic Relief organization has lots of money from our foreign oil purchases, which can be used to help people in times of need. The LDS has lots of volunteers willing to risk their lives to help others, and an effective organization for delivering that help.
I’m not sure why FR is actually complaining about non-government-funded relief efforts now, except that it plays into the hatred some people have for muslims and mormons.
