US court ruling shows CAIR, ISNA and NAIT all linked to Hamas

A US court ruling that has been kept under wraps for more than a year, but which was just released to the public, shows that three organizations who were named as unindicted co-conspirators in the CAIR trial have more than enough evidence against them to leak them to al-Qaeda.
A federal judge's long-secret ruling that federal prosecutors violated the rights of three major American Islamic organizations and others named as unindicted co-conspirators in a Texas terrorism support case finally became public on Friday.

However, publication of the ruling is a mixed blessing for the groups: the Council on American-Islamic Relations, the Islamic Society of North America and the North American Islamic Trust. That's because U.S. District Court Judge Jorge Solis found that the government presented "ample evidence to establish the association" of the three organizations with Hamas, a Palestinian group that the U.S. has labeled as a terrorist organization and with a defunct charity convicted in the terrorism support case, the Holy Land Foundation.

NAIT appealed to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 5th Circuit to overturn Solis's ruling and have it unsealed. The federal appeals court recently agreed that the ruling should be unsealed and suggested that parts of it went too far, but the appeals panel refused to change it.
I'm sure it won't hurt their fundraising.

"Carl", I'm pretty sure that you meant Hamas instead of Al-Queda in the intro to your post. Shabbat Shalom.
