This charity once claimed to be the largest of its kind in the US. Also, more details of the indictment have been released.

The indictment includes:

a count or counts of conspiracy
providing support to a foreign terrorist organization
conspiracy to deal in the property of a terrorist,
dealing in the property of a specially designated terrorist.
money laundering,
conspiracy to impede an investigation by the Internal Revenue Service
filing false tax returns.

One of the 7 men named in indictment is Shukri Abu Baker, who once was the foundation's CEO.

Can this charity organization be called an active domestic terrorist cell? Will we the American public be privy to the true nature of there organization? I think not but I hope I'm wrong.
This is just the tip of the iceberg and hopefully many more such organizations will topple.
