This article sheds light on how much money that is meant to go to charitable causes falls into the wrong hands. Today the Bush administration cracked down on a charitable organization in Gaza that is thought to be financially supporting the Hamas, a group labeled as terrorists by the U.S. The Treasury believes this organization is a front to funnel money to fund terrorist activities. I found it interesting because today we were talking about how aid money so often finds it way to the wrong cause instead of helping those in need. However, who says the money wasn't given in some known agreement to begin with and now that the secret is out there has to be some damage control. Who really knows where the money is coming from or where it is going to end up.
