Further to my previous allegations against the bogus US charity Spirit Of America (see here and here), it is interesting to note that Osama bin Laden himself once ran a "charity". This from a Guardian report in the efforts to find him:
Divided into two tribal agencies, north and south - a total of seven nestle along the Afghan border - Waziristan has a rich history of tribes and trouble. During the 1980s, it became a vast muster station for Muslims across the world wishing to fight the Godless Soviets across the border in Afghanistan. Pakistan's ISI intelligence agency ran dozens of madrassas that radicalised the jihadis; America and Saudi Arabia provided billions of dollars in funding. The fighters included Bin Laden, who ran an Islamic 'charity' in nearby Peshawar, and the Iraqi militant mastermind Abu Musab Al Zarkawi.
