The article should actually say that yet another American terrorist funding arm was indicted.
I wrote this last year while interning at AIM/AIA:

A University of South Florida computer science professor was arrested on February 20 in conjunction with a federal indictment for facilitating terrorism. The professor, Dr. Sami Al-Arian, was charged with raising funds and managing finances for an international terrorist organization that orchestrates violence primarily in Israel...

• A series of intercepted phone calls, faxes and bank transactions demonstrate that Al-Arian used WISE and ICP bank accounts as surreptitious conduits for money transfers. These transactions involved the PIJ, the Iranian and Syrian governments, HAMAS [another federally designated terrorist organization] and ‘sources’ in the Sudan. Al-Arian was also recorded on several occasions advising how to dupe unsuspecting donors into providing funds for specifically outlawed terrorist groups.
• Phone calls and faxes documented Al-Arian facilitating PIJ tactical coordination with HAMAS. Agreement was reached and a deadly bus bombing in Israel subsequently occurred, utilizing a PIJ “boy” who deployed a HAMAS car loaded with HAMAS explosives.
