My latest at Truthout tells the story of the Justice Departments vendetta against an Iranian-American couple who wanted to meet their Islamic obligation to give one-fifth of their income to charity by donating to needy Iranian kids through the Portland-based Child Foundation. A key tactic of the Justice Department was to establish a completely phony link between donations charity and terrorism. The prosecution and conviction of the couple is yet another in a long series of U.S. government attacks on Islamic charities that exudes the powerful stench of Islamophobia.
