RCMP raids Muslim relief group’s offices as Canada declares it a terrorist organization

TORONTO — The RCMP has conducted searches in Ontario and Quebec as part of an investigation into a Muslim relief organization that federal auditors accuse of sending almost $15-million to the Palestinian terrorist group Hamas.

Integrated National Security Enforcement Teams raided the head office of the International Relief Fund for the Afflicted and Needy — Canada in Mississauga, Ont. on Monday, as well as a private residence in Montreal.

“An extensive amount of documentary evidence along with stored media, money and other records were seized,” the RCMP said in a statement issued shortly after the government announced the former charity had been outlawed.

IRFAN-Canada lost its charity status in 2011 after an audit by the Canada Revenue Agency called the group an “integral part” of an international fundraising effort that supported Hamas, the terrorist group that controls the Gaza Strip.

Assuming the evidence is there to support the claims, I can’t possibly applaud this action enough.

Good going, Canadians! The next step is to kick the whole bunch of screaming savages out of your country. But don’t send them here.

Obama is going to be pissed at Canada. Israel had better get ready for some tantrum type behavior by our state dept.
