In a known Hamas financing system for terror groups, there were several nonprofit organizations that were discovered to be responsible.
In 2018, two of the men who held the highest positions in those organizations assisted in planning events to raise money for Representative Rashida Tlaib (D-MI).
The two event managers were compensated by Tlaib’s campaign. These same men were connected to a network of nonprofit organizations that a federal jury found guilty of funding the 1996 terrorist killing of American teen David Boim at a West Bank bus stop in 2004.
In a judgment for aiding Hamas, which is a group that has been labeled a Foreign Terrorist Organization, the federal judge ordered the three organizations to compensate Boim’s parents $156 million. The family received zilch.
The Islamic Association for Palestine, the American Muslim Society, and the Holy Land Foundation were all participating. After being told to pay the Boim family, none of them ever did so; instead, they all stopped doing business.
The Holy Land Foundation’s assets were taken by the US government, and five of its founders were imprisoned in 2008 after receiving lengthy sentences for providing financial assistance to the terrorist organization Hamas.
Rafeeq Jaber, one of the campaign’s organizers, revealed during a 2003 deposition that he was the president of both the American Muslim Society and the Islamic Association for Palestine. Jaber claimed during his evidence that two organizations he was in charge of distributed pro-Hamas materials and worked to “promote [Holy Land Foundation] in whatever way we can,” one of which was an editorial published in August 2001 that called for the slaughter of Jews.
A flyer shared on Facebook revealed that Jaber was a part of the “Hosting Committee” for a Tlaib campaign fundraiser in July 2018. The event was funded by Tlaib’s congressional campaign, as evidenced by the flier’s statement, “Paid for by: Rashida Tlaib for Congress.”
Jaber was also seen in a Facebook video from a Tlaib campaign fundraiser in March 2018 sitting in the front row.
Rafeeq Jaber later urged his supporters to back Tlaib’s reelection bid in 2020, writing on Facebook in July 2020 that Tlaib’s removal from office was sought after by pro-Israel AIPAC, “extreme right wingers,” and “white racists.”
Do you really think this? As he runs for office as a Democrat, a terrorist financier labels a pro-Israel organization “extreme” and “white nationalist.”
In a subsequent Facebook post in November 2020, he claimed that Tlaib and Representative Ilhan Omar (D-MN) support and advance the Palestinian cause and argued that failing to vote won’t end “the support for Criminal Israel.”
The Boim family filed a lawsuit against Jaber in 2017, alleging that he shut down the American Muslim Society and the Islamic Association for Palestine in 2004 and founded a new organization named American Muslims for Palestine in order to avoid paying the $156 million verdict.
In a 2017 lawsuit, it was claimed that American Muslims for Palestine “is nothing more than a disguised continuance of IAP/AMS — shorn of the burden of the Boim Judgement and the ignominy of having been found guilty for aiding and abetting the murder of an American teenager.”
Around the time of Boim’s murder, Salah Sarsour, Tlaib’s second campaign manager, organized fundraising events for the Islamic Association for Palestine and the Holy Land Foundation. He allegedly made cheques from his company bank account to a Hamas militant to transfer money to him.
Salah’s brother Jamil Sarsour admitted to the Israeli government in December 2019 that “my brother sent money to him through me multiple times, and I passed money over to Adel Awdallah several times.”
In September 1998, Israeli commandos assassinated Awdallah for preparing a terrorist strike.
Jamil Sarsour confessed, “The checks that my brother Salah provided me were from a (UI) bank in Milwaukee, from the company account.” “In order for the government to be unable to link the checks back to either of us individually, we didn’t want to use personal checks from either of us. In this manner, we were able to cash checks abroad and send funds to Adel Awdallah.
According to a 2001 FBI memo, Salah Sarsour actively participated in fundraising for the Holy Land Foundation, which “really supports HAMAS.”
Salah Sarsour was mentioned as a member of the national board of American Muslims for Palestine on the organization’s website.
As stated on a flyer in a Facebook post that reads, “Paid for by Rashida Tlaib for Congress,” Sarsour co-hosted a fundraiser event for Tlaib’s campaign on July 28, 2018.
He appears in several pictures shot at the fundraiser with Tlaib. Tlaib responded to a Facebook post with three images of her posing with Salah Sarsour at the fundraiser by clicking the heart icon. The post was made using her personal Facebook account.
Rashida Tlaib is connected to these persons. While a member of Congress is related with individuals who have ties to terrorist organizations, our disinformation news media is silent on the matter.
On August 2, she will face off in her primary for Michigan’s 12th Congressional District. Democrats should support Kelly Garrett, Shanelle Jackson, or Janice Winfrey if only to remove a supporter of terrorism from the ballot.
Steven Elliott of Rochester Hills, James Hooper of Livonia, and Hassan Nehme of Dearborn Heights are vying for the same seat in the Republican primary. If you want to choose a member of Congress who genuinely loves America and wants to make it better without destroying it, then either of them would be your greatest option.
Biggest mistakes our country ever made was allowingpeople to come here from the Middle East and allowing them in our military
