Veterans today's is a NUTJOB conspiracy site dedicated to spreading anti Americanism and anti Semetism while using the name "veterans" to fool people. It's like Sunni man, an enemy within America and Jew hating poster who calls himself a patriotic American. Hilarious.
Remember when they used the name "HolyLand Foundation" to launder money to the terrorists? Both CAIR and Muslim Brotherhood are named in that trial by the way. Makes you wonder when the state department is going to get around to adding their names to the state dept. terror list, doesn't it? Guess when they take them off the guest list at the White House, eh? - Jeri
The Holy Land Foundation is simply a charitable organization whose members have been unlawfully tried by American courts and the imprisonment of their members is a travesty of American justice. They should be awarded The Nobel Peace Prize, these brave and courageous men who have been unlawfully imprisoned for acts of charity. And the case has become famous in the civil rights struggle in America, it is called the case of The Holy Land Five.
"The case of the Holy Land Foundation (HLF) in which five Palestinian American Muslims were convicted and sentenced in a US court to decades behind bars based on questionable testimony by two anonymous Israeli intelligence officers, demonstrates the invasive nature of Israeli influence in American courts. There is an abundance of information about this case so we won’t get into too many details here, only to say that HLF, at one time the largest Muslim charity in the US was accused of providing “material support to Hamas.” It is a bewildering accusation to say the least. HLF provided much needed charity to Palestinians by raising modest funds for orphans and widows that had to qualify in order to receive these funds, and contributed to libraries and hospitals in the West Bank and Gaza. Israeli authorities began a campaign against HLF in 1996. They closed down the HLF office in Jerusalem and arrested the local director, a Palestinian from Jerusalem. He was interrogated by the Israeli police, and the internal security service (Shabak). He was asked repeatedly if the organization has ties to Hamas and if moneys were given particularly to orphans whose fathers were members of Hamas who became Shahids, either through suicide attacks or because they were killed by Israel. He repeatedly claimed that HLF was not affiliated to Hamas, and that all recipients had to go through the same screening process by social workers who determined if they qualified for aid. He showed that HLF did not in any way favor the orphans of Hamas “Shahids.” Still he was charged, convicted and had spent several years in an Israeli prison."
Israel?s Invasion of US Justice, By Miko Peled « Miko Peled
How pathetic and low we have become, charitable organizations coming to the aid of children and civilians we attack and kill in Gaza, we try to stop the charities from helping those we have injured and maimed and rendered homeless and children rendered motherless and fatherless, and the ones trying to help these children we imprison.
And you claim to be a Christian, as you support the attacks on these charities?
Should I be laughing or crying about that?
