Description

Now, MEF is looking at state and city funding. An initial glance has uncovered tens of millions more funding for radicals in just the first three states examined. Even supporters and proxies of Hamas are benefitting directly from you, the taxpayer. Across America, exactly how much taxpayers’ money is funding Islamism? Which Islamists are benefiting? And why do governments everywhere subsidize Islamist control over Muslim communities?
