Qatar Charity Editorial Welcome to Ramadan, the Month of Innumerable Blessings The holy month of Ramadan is a symbol of mercy, forgiveness, devotion and celebration. It brings a friendly atmosphere to Muslims all over the world in general and gives hope to those in need in particular. With the advent of the blessed month, a spiritual and luminous environment continues from morning until evening and from evening until morning, which gives sufficient opportunities to store goodness and nurture the faith. Welcome to Ramadan, the months of philanthropy and generosity and the season of doing good and making charity. On this occasion, we are pleased to heartily and sincerely congratulate Qatari people, residents and Muslim nations across the globe, praying to Allah the Almighty to help us to do what pleases Him and achieves His satisfaction. With the advent of Ramadan, Qatar Charity’s “Giving is the secret to happiness” begins with the aim of drawing attention to the fact that giving is a significant key to human happiness, which means that the pleasure of giv- ing is superior to the pleasure of receiving, especially in the holy month of Ramadan, the season of generosity. Extending a helping hand to support those in need gives the charity makers and good doers a feeling of hap- piness and fills their hearts with tranquility, comfort, and blessing, especially, when they see the smile on the faces of the beneficiaries and the positive difference in their lives made by the donations of benefactors. Now, we are pleased to call upon all the good doers around the world to take advantage of the holy month and strive to taste this happiness by helping needy people, whose numbers have increased in light of crises and disasters, especially in recent years. Through this campaign, Qatar Charity aims to implement projects in 29 countries in addition to Qatar at cost of QR37mn. The projects include “Iftar Tables, Food Baskets”, Eid Clothing, and Zakat al-Fitr and we aim to reach out to about two million people, praying to Allah the Almighty to accept our good deeds. Here, it is worth mentioning that Qatar Charity has recently been honored for its humanitarian efforts, activities and partnerships at the international level. The most significant achievements are as follows: - The Aid & Trade conference and exhibition held in London last month honored Qatar Charity with the “Change Maker Award” for its humanitarian services, development efforts and activities in 70 countries. The award was received by H.E Sheikh Hamad bin Naser Al-Thani, Chairman of Qatar Charity. - At the Aid & Trade conference and exhibition held in London, UNHCR honored Qatar Charity for its efforts, projects and partnerships with UNHCR and the humanitarian service. - Qatar Charity was granted full membership of ‘Start Network’ at a ceremony held in London in February. May Allah benefit us with every good effort.

  • Origination, Organization, and Prevention: Saudi Arabia, Terrorist Financing and the War on Terror”
    Testimony of Steven Emerson with Jonathan Levin Before the United States Senate Committee on Governmental Affairs “Terrorism Financing: Origination, Organization, and Prevention: Saudi Arabia, Terrorist Financing and the War on Terror” July 31, 2003 Steven Emerson Executive Director The Investigative Project 5505 Conn. Ave NW #341 Washington DC 20015 Email: [email protected] phone 202-363-8602 fax 202 966 5191 Introduction Terrorism depends upon the presence of three primary ingredients: Indoctrination, recruitment and financing. Take away any one of those three ingredients and the chances for success are geometrically reduced. In the nearly two years since the horrific attacks of 9/11, the war on terrorism has been assiduously fought by the US military, intelligence and law enforcement. Besides destroying the base that Al Qaeda used in Afghanistan, the United States has conducted a comprehensive campaign in the United States to arrest, prosecute, deport or jail those suspected of being connected to terrorist cells. The successful prosecution of terrorist cells in Detroit and Buffalo and the announcement of indictments against suspected terrorist cells in Portland, Seattle, northern Virginia, Chicago, Tampa, Brooklyn, and elsewhere have demonstrated the resolve of those on the front line in the battle against terrorism. Dozens of groups, financial conduits and financiers have seen their assets frozen or have been classified as terrorist by the US Government. One of the most sensitive areas of investigation remains the role played by financial entities and non-governmental organizations (ngo’s) connected to or operating under the aegis of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Since the July 24 release of the “Report of the Joint Inquiry into the Terrorist Attacks of September 11, 2001,” the question of what role Saudi Arabia has played in supporting terrorism, particularly Al Qaeda and the 9/11 attacks, has come under increasing scrutiny.
