Debbie Schlussel: Yet Another Way American Muslims May Be Funding Terrorists
Tonight, I was at a Detroit-area cineplex for a movie screening. On my way out, I cut across the building and saw that one theater was rented out to a couple of Muslim men who were holding a "we buy your gold and diamonds" event. Their wives were sitting outside in their hijabs (headscarfs).
Something to think about: If you sell your gold for cash (for which you'll receive far less than the actual value), where is the gold and the profit going? It's an all cash and all gold business, with no explicit records of how much commerce was conducted and what was changing hands. It's the perfect way to launder money to terrorists without any accountability and little risk of getting caught.
Beware of selling your jewelry for cash at this type of event. You could be financing Islamic terrorism, or aiding Muslims utilizing yet another way to cheat on their taxes, or both. Be very wary.

This reminds me of when I went to frightening Islamic Relief-Worldwide fundraisers in Dearbornistan. They asked and cajoled the women to hand their jewelry up to the front "to help pay for 50 Palestinian kids in Gaza to eat for a month." Women sent up gold bracelets, necklaces, earrings. We know where the money went, i.e., not for sandwiches (unless you're talking a homicide belt sandwich).
