Analyst's note: Absolutely must read and carefully consider what is being reported. Shariah Finance Watch has compiled an updated and invaluable list of institutions that actively enable or conduct sharia financial activities here in the U.S. Our thanks to "Shariah Finance Watch" for this public service. This provides much needed insight into who is funding the Islamist jihad and war against the United States and the West. It is also good to remember that Iran dominates Sharia Compliant Finance. What could possibly go wrong with this concept?
Some are unwittingly contributing to the destruction of the U.S. Constitution through sharia and zakat. Others know exactly what they are doing to take down our United States. Yes, the Muslim Brotherhood is involved as they push politically correct concepts on this issue, along with their lies. This is jihad with money ... working to destroy America from within. For additional insight please click here.
Our thanks to Shariah Finance Watch for this earlier analysis reported here:
"A report issued by the House Homeland Security Committee indicates that Hezbollah has a large and threatening presence inside the USA and is successfully raising funds inside the USA to support its Jihad.
Among the findings outlined in the report which are particularly relevant for SFW readers:
• Counterterrorism officials consider Hezbollah fundraising cells to be prevalent across the United States.
• Sophisticated operations have been uncovered within large Lebanese communities in New York and Michigan, but also in other parts of the USA, such as Charlotte, NC.
• There is a general consensus among dozens of experts as well as current and former law enforcement and intelligence officials that Hezbollah, more than any other terrorist organization, is the most capable of transforming US-based fundraising cells into lethal terrorist cells at the order of the Iranian regime.
• There are likely several thousand sympathetic Hezbollah donors across America and hundreds of actual operatives.
• Some Hezbollah terrorists have been quietly convicted of fraud or other criminal activities and deported without their Hezbollah ties being publicly disclosed by federal prosecutors.
The entire preliminary report can be found here:
It is highly likely that donations to Hezbollah have come from the USA in the form of zakat payments. Regular readers of SFW will recall that zakat is a form of tithing required under Shariah. The problem with zakat however, is that numerous sources and authorities have confirmed that one of the destinations of zakat money is to those waging violent Jihad. We covered this in detail in a posting in October of 2011:
This is related to Shariah-compliant finance in that Shariah-compliant financial institutions are required to donate under zakat just as individuals are. There is an obvious moral hazard involved."
For a more in-depth look at Shariah, see Shariah: The Threat to America, a report by 19 top national security practitioners– including the former Director of Central Intelligence, the former Deputy Undersecretary of Defense for Intelligence, and the former Director of the Defense Intelligence Agency. Shariah: The Threat to America (Report of Team B II) is available on paperback and Kindle at Amazon.com. Why wait until it is too late on a central issue regarding our national security? Lets stop sharia now!
The Islamist jihadist material is being "sanitized in mass" from our federal government by the Obama administration & also attempting to do the same thing in the entire popular culture. Obviously our national security offices are now "flying blind" while actually receiving instructions from the Muslim Brotherhood (our sworn enemy) ... a documented Obama favorite from Day-1.
There has been a rise in instances of planned Islamic terrorism in the United States. If the administration has been trying not to offend Islam, one must ask what is leading to this situation?
From the Team "B" II Report entitled, Shariah, The Threat to America, An exercise in competitive analysis " we learn much that can only be ignored at our national peril. [....]The Enlightenment values that inspired and informed the Founding Fathers to create America, which epitomizes Western Democracy, are the antithesis of the extremist – Islamist – side of sharia.
[....] people who have masqueraded as “moderates” and have had the ear of government in America have had the same attitudes. Omar Ahmad, founder of CAIR had stated in 1998 that:
“If you choose to live here [in America]… you have a responsibility to deliver the message of Islam. Islam isn't in America to be equal to any other faith, but to become dominant. The Quran should be the highest authority in America, and Islam the only accepted religion on earth.”[....] Chapter 8 of the report (p.133) states:In fact, by manipulating perceptions at the national strategic level about the nature of shariah, the enemy can actually exercise profound influence over the nature and adequacy of the defense mounted. That is most especially true of actions needed to contend with the Muslim Brotherhood’s stealth jihad – even though we know its avowed purpose is aimed at “eliminating and destroying the Western civilization from within and ‘sabotaging’ its miserable house by their hands.”To fully understand America’s peril in the face of such enemies, we must carefully consider our collective failure to contend with their successful pursuit of information dominance and psychological strategy, critical ingredients in information warfare. We must come to grips with, and correct, the control they have come to enjoy over what Americans, and most especially the U.S. civilian, intelligence, and military leadership, understanding about shariah and its proponents. [....]"
I strongly recommend an internal site search on the terms of "sharia", "information warfare", "jihad", "Islamist", "Salafists", "Dhimmi", "Achilles Heel", "Tawfik", "Phares", "Muslim Brotherhood", "Caliphate", "Iran", "Hawala", "Cordoba", "Moderate Muslim", and "CAIR" for additional insight gathered over time.
"President Barack Obama refusal to admit that America’s real enemy isn’t al-Qaida but radical Islam legitimizes groups that believe there is a conspiracy against Muslims, leading terrorism and national security expert Steve Emerson tells Newsmax.TV."

The most common requests we receive here at SFW are questions as to whether banks or brokerage houses “are Shariah-compliant?”
As a result of these numerous inquiries, for the past several weeks, we have carefully compiled a list of financial institutions active in the USA that have some form of tie to Shariah Compliant Finance.
In some cases, the entire institution is Shariah-compliant. In other cases, the overall institution is not Shariah-compliant but it has a division or subsidiary that is, or it offers a product that is Shariah-compliant. In still more cases, some of the entities listed below do not offer financial products at all, but play key roles in enabling Shariah Compliant Finance in the West.
We went to great lengths to confirm each of the names listed below. However, there may be institutions that we have overlooked. We encourage readers to contact us with questions, comments and criticisms via the Comments section below:
