DALLAS AP – A Muslim charity channeled millions to people and organizations with ties to Hamas in aid of the militant group’s goal to destroy Israel and replace it with an Islamic state, a federal prosecutor told a jury Tuesday.
Opening statements were made in the trial of the Holy Land Foundation for Relief and Development and five of its top officials, charged with aiding terrorists, conspiracy and money laundering. The trial is expected to last several months and caps an FBI investigation that lasted more than a decade.
