When It Comes to Funding Jihad, "Charity" Begins at Home

Only a tiny minority of extremists has run off to wage holy war with ISIS. However, a much larger cohort, writes Abigail R. Esman on the IPT site,  is doing what it can to support the jihad by raising funds back "home" in Europe. How many Muslims are involved? Esman says

in the end, that number isn't what really matters. More significant is what a European Muslim community that increasingly supports radical Islamic, pro-sharia movements, and willingly underwrites their jihad. It is a kind of silent jihadist movement, a form of terror funding that slips beneath the radar, and between the laws.

You can be sure that the same efforts are underway in North America.
