CEP Senior Director Dr. Hans-Jakob Schindler quoted: "According to Hans-Jakob Schindler, an expert on terrorist financing interviewed Monday on La Matinale, "the people who send money have no control over what the terrorist fighter is going to do with it.

CEP CEO Ambassador Mark D. Wallace and CEP Senior Director Dr. Hans-Jakob Schindler write: "Evidence implicating UNRWA employees in the 7 October terrorist attacks should come as no surprise to anyone who has followed the activities of the UN’s agency for Palestinian refugees closely.
Allegations that some UNRWA workers were in fact Hamas operatives are merely the latest iteration of a much larger problem plaguing the international aid sector.
A stunning lack of oversight and regulation of humanitarian funds over the past several decades has allowed untold billions in taxpayer money to make their way into terrorists’ coffers."
"Qatar has been accused by several U.S. allies of state-sponsored terrorism, and serves as a hub for terror financing and a 'safe haven for religious extremists expelled by other countries,' according to The Counter Extremism Project."

According to the Counter Extremism Project (that maintains databases on extremist groups, their ideology, leaders, history, financing, violent activities, tactics, and rhetoric), the Qatar Charity is a member charity of the Union of Good network."
