Tlaib, who has a
long history of anti-Semitic rhetoric, retweeted a post from
critical race theorist Khaled Beydoun that urged
donations to Baitulmaal, a Texas-based nonprofit. Experts say Baitulmaal helps fundraise for Hamas and distributes aid to the "families of martyrs of the Palestinian people." And the group's leader, Mazen Mokhtar, has been accused of working with the Taliban and other terrorist groups.
The Unlimited Friends Association works with Baitulmaal to hand out cash to the families of Palestinian terrorists, according to the Middle East Forum. These donations complement the Palestinian Authority's formal "Pay to Slay" program, which has
funneled hundreds of millions of dollars to Palestinian terrorists. The Palestinian government this year
paid $42,000 to the family of a Palestinian terrorist who
stabbed two Israelis to death and wounded two more, including a two-year-old child.
The association, which lists Baitulmaal on its
website's partners and donors page, is openly hostile towards Israel. The group's Facebook
page contains references to "the filth of the most dirty Jews" and "Nazi Zionist jails." The association also partners with Islamic Relief, a group with which the State Department cut ties this year because of "anti-Semitism exhibited repeatedly" by its leaders.
