Defense Minister Moshe
Yaalon on Thursday signed an order declaring the Islamic Relief Worldwide (IRW)
group illegal. Based on the order, the organization can no longer raise money or
distribute money in Israel or anywhere in Judea and Samaria.
IRW, said Yaalon, is a chief
fundraising front for Hamas. Posing as a "charity," the organization claims to
raise money to assist refugees, orphans, and the needy, said Yaalon, but most of
its money ends up in the hands of Hamas, used either to fund terror attacks or
pay terrorists.
The group has offices around the world, raising money from Muslims in Western countries to
fund its activities. The group's main office is in the UK. In
2006, the Israel Security Agency (ISA) and the Israel
Police arrested Iyaz Ali, a Pakistani-born British national, who was an
assistant director of IRW's Gaza
branch. Files found on his computer showed clearly that IRW funds were
being used to fund Hamas terror activities.
According to Israeli
security officials, the IRW’s activities in Judea, Samaria and the Gaza Strip are carried out by social welfare organizations
controlled and staffed by Hamas operatives. The intensive activities of these
associations are designed to further Hamas’s ideology among the PA
Arabs.
Speaking Thursday, Yaalon
said that IRW was “another source of income for Hamas. We do not intend to allow
this organization to fund terror attacks against Israelis. This is another in a
series of actions we are taking against Hamas in Judea and Samaria, whose
purpose is to smash the abilities, civil infrastructure, and membership of the
terror group,” he added.
It comes as Israel
undertakes a large-scale crackdown on Hamas over the abduction of three Israeli
students last week, which the Israeli government says was carried out by a Hamas
cell in the Hevron region.
