Terrorism |

This is a list of charities accused of ties to terrorism. A number of charities have been accused or convicted in court of using their revenues to fund terrorism or revolutionary movements, rather than for the humanitarian purposes for which contributions were ostensibly collected. During the " war on terror" the names of several such organisations have been published, although the phenomenon predates 9/11. [1] Some detainees have been captured largely because they volunteered or worked for these charities.
On August 23, 2007, the Bush administration announced plans to implement enhanced security checking of the employees of American charities, which receive funds from U.S. Agency for International Development, looking for those who might have ties to terrorism. [2] Charities which are turned down will not be offered an explanation, or an avenue to appeal the decisions.
