making. their on line. response to. the drug trade over the last fifty years has been criminalized or if you join us. in the morning and say i want to scour the world of darkness this is a dialogue that could be what's leading to some of the confusion about people saying they don't actually know what's going on join the colobus conversation at this time on al-jazeera. and i'm a clock in london the top stories here on al jazeera and president trump has described a controversial tell all book that claims his staff view him as a child as a work of fiction he's rejected accusations that he is mentally unfit for office and describing himself in a tweet as a stable genius responding to criticism in a newly published book that comes down to over his ability to do his job he posted

actually throughout my life my two greatest assets have been mental stability and being like really smart i went from a very successful businessman to top t.v. star to president of the united states i think that would qualify as not smart but genius and a very stable genius at that. when hours later speaking to me directly the president strongly criticized the author michael wolff and his former chief strategist steve brennan who is quoted in the book. i consider it a work of fiction and i think it's a disgrace that somebody is able to have something do something like that the libel laws are very weak in this country if they were strong it would be very helpful you wouldn't have things like that happen where you can say whatever comes to your head but just so you know i never interviewed with him in the white house at all he was never in the oval office we didn't have an interview. and i did

a quick interview with him a long time ago having to do with an article but i don't know this man i guess sloppy steve brought him into the white house quite a bit and it was one of those things that's why sloppy steve is now looking for a job. john hendren has been following the story and has more now from washington d.c. . the president of the united states began his saturday morning preparing to meet with republican leaders at camp david to discuss their legislative agenda for twenty eighteen and a landmark immigration reform bill but he was clearly rattled by this book so the first thing we heard from the president on all trump was a series of tweets in which he criticized the book and the assertion that he was not mentally fit for office made by several people in the book trump writes actually throughout my life my two greatest assets have been mental stability and being like really smart and then he went on to say in a follow up tweet that becoming president of the united states on his first try

would qualify not as smart but as genius and a very stable genius at that when the president has to argue that he is stable it is a bad day for the president of the united states and he has a lot to crow about he has just achieved a major tax cut that had been a centerpiece of his campaign he is facing immigration reform changes including money an eighteen billion dollars that congress is preparing to spend on the border wall but he also promised in his campaign but of course the first question he got in the news conference appearing with those republican leaders was about this book thousands more pro-government demonstrators have been rallying in iran and the show of strength following more than a week of protests the supporters most in the streets waving uranian flags and challenge the anti western slogans iran's government is accuse western nations of fomenting the rest which is seen twenty two people killed and more than a thousand arrested in the last ten days. the government of saudi arabia says that

eleven princes have been detained in riyadh off to staging a protest outside the royal palace they're being held in a notorious high security prison and that is in stark contrast to dozens of other high profile figures who were detained in a luxury hotel last year during the anticorruption drive the princes were reportedly protesting against a number of new austerity measures have been angry scenes in the occupied west bank as the patriarch of jerusalem arrived at manger square in bethlehem for all the boats christmas if the meus the third it has been at the center of growing public anger of the being accused of selling off large swathes of church land to private businesses at least seventeen people have been killed by as strikes in the rebel held area of eastern ghouta in syria artillery attacks also launched by syrian forces on areas of countryside outside the capital damascus are those the top

stories stay with us next up it is al-jazeera. was. the government after months of trial and years of preparation for his fate that prosecutors say was a huge fundraiser for hamas convicted of funneling millions of dollars to the palestinian militant group. hamas.

militant was a man and. had to prove. beyond reasonable doubt to a jury. conspiracy that spanned a thirteen year period to support it curious organization among them in the loop hole and. often. you're hunting down the murderers you support and we will use this case unjust and unfair to not only the individuals involved in the entire community and for you the richardson based charity has been under suspicion accused of funding terror only described in two thousand was. that this work was illegal. didn't we see this time of sentences ranging from fifteen to sixty five years in prison for five h.l.l. if we said that this was

a political trial and that these were political prisoners and that it was based on association. not based on fact cif willing to speak out and he said the government's case was full of mischief it's clearly a political trial and it was a shame it was a shame. on the americans and we should not have let it happen and we should not let it continue. another. woman was that and while that. was cystic fibrosis and cystic fibrosis as

a long disease and his daughter needed surgery just to live and sugaree was able to find a charity who funded his daughter surgery but should we said that changed his life he said i am a muslim and i love to give so he left his job he quit he scowled at a charity he put his heart and soul into a charity that grew to be the largest muslim charity in the united states. army at the start of many in california. i see and what are you seeing that are actually a work of. sylar she would come from where the brain is a in a. with some you had it's same. guy that was. assessed that other than to let's us.

they were mainly giving humanitarian aid to palestinians in the west bank and gaza as well as the refugee populations in lebanon and jordan and then they also gave to other needy populations across the world. almost sad that. was a minimum of them but the but in the semi automatic to say in a certain sort of earth i live in bunia to the infrastructure to be limit. let them look a mccollum met alarmed at the big. can of most is the only limb to couldn't put the method to jimmy theory it is the media

with a tell me her brain and brain i may put sammy at the minute seeing what else you know what well you know well it is going to cost the most is a holy land going to cut the movie ship in the middle also relate them. to power was a seven minute. dude mel your name or your own so that we. work out a bit of the water was a lot. less about filmy. you must leave it as really. but manage. my other mill your name. but i was a little would allow you to email it what it was actually shot. throughout

the ninety nine. there were many claims by israeli lobby like. the anti-defamation league and politicians like eliot spitzer and putting. a lot of these politicians when clinton administration and bank clinton tried to pressure him to shut down the charity clinton refused to shut down the israel is against anybody who supports the palestinian people and it doesn't mean support in terms of money on arms or anything like that if you just say i don't like what israel is doing to the palestinian people you're an enemy to the states. was. the u.s. government after nine eleven was willing to give up every right. i'm ready to give

up my civil rights i'm going to give up my freedom of speech and really give up my privacy do whatever you need if it's going to keep some of these crazy terrorist from coming over killing us and one of the things that led to was an adoption of a kind of aggressive prevent of law enforcement paradigm in which we used every tool available to go after not just terrorists but people who we thought are suspected might be engaged in supporting connected to associated with terrorists and often the basis for that might be you know associated with terrorist was their arab muslim male. the treasury department froze the assets in accounts of the holy land foundation richardson texas. whose money is you support the hamas terror organization

a lot of little not some. i love the job of you know like i walked on the internet and it was a little it was a spot. on kind of. if you see all so me at least. one little vomit. you know how about how about some of the dolls at least we should feel one hundred much. more system of them. should be able because what color libyan they know now do not mock has been no sales call a bit enough most of them will be on the show on. the my left camera and how do you know morse is not what all of the minorities bush and you'll have. been opposing a bit of. feel that laughter was just. a philosophy. that.

you were you'll have to do about it i see how it might be the kind of person and. all of us are we into fashion. because we are. most addicts or. if you are us one hell of a time when a few will probably so your day that after hauser who is general counsel to the treasury at the time said quote it was almost comical and quote unquote we just listed out as many of the usual suspects as we could and said let's go freeze some of their asses i have my suspicions that israel was involved in that but i don't know that but i do know because it's been written about and is public now that the treasury department literally created scapegoats and said we have these palestinians let's just go out and seize their assets and that's what they did

there was no hearing there was no due process there were. nothing they went in and seized everything down to the plants. in two thousand and two the holy land foundation represented by me and my law partners filed a lawsuit in washington d.c. to challenge the designation. as a as a terrorist organisation it was a huge record that the government had created an administrative record that we had to read and it was mostly basically garbage it was it was newspaper articles interviews that were translated from arabic to hebrew to english and we discovered when we did our own translations that the translations were completely wrong. that the government was relying on information that was completely completely false but it didn't matter the lawsuit was dismissed by the district

court in washington d.c. after much briefing and argument we took an appeal to the united states court of appeals for the d.c. circuit it's the the court of appeals that sits in the district of columbia. and on appeal to the d.c. circuit we lost again. the based on secret evidence even though we had security clearances at the time so we should have been able to see this what the government said was secret evidence we never saw it because we weren't able to see the secret evidence we were unable to challenge it we were unable to point out ways that it was untrue or incomplete the district court the trial level court. said that it didn't rely on the secret evidence but in the appellate court when we challenge the ruling of the district court that court did rely on the secret evidence found it persuasive so that it was incontrovertibly and ruled against us.

to click on the mouth of the sucker kind of. possible help governor nixon. an onslaught against the wall. and the bomb goes off you see on my box under can sort of adding to. the sound it's on the face of. what is yeah us asking them. to say i mean one of the three of. them out in the. office at.

my no love at all what one league will see on the other most also put all the little on there are studies who are just some additional some of them can just go to work. is a young you know she was shallow doesn't fit the whole shift a little five hundred or so many of us has any wish i could give you to learn again those of us do it but we might i mean us know how than i can with that lisa. if i can. ask that and i will now do. for the next three years the f.b.i.

the cia you know. government officials prosecutors they spent almost three or four years looking into the case the allegation was that there was essentially material support being provided by the holy land foundation to come up in we had to prove that and you have to essentially it's a form which we call the united states money laundering material support charges were alleged against all of the individuals. mr mr o'day mr el there's a mr a bocher mr. carter and mr washington and also against the organization itself there were over forty charges as i recall but primarily it was material support to terrorism and then tax charges all raw. please be seated a. couple of small my few living matthew levitt kana most the shell

oh i mean he was all of the many a few many some of them that have been most of. matthew levitt you know who would you sell you any multiple to maneuver so unified with them with a hand. bob. some of the slum a phobia when they don't notice them would have been sent can you tell us again what is the overall purpose for hamas having a social wing. it builds greg. froot support for the organization it provides for the families of its operatives provides operatives with day jobs it provides a cover of legitimacy for their activities certainly no one is going to question the need for charity charity is a good thing except that the operatives are sometimes charity by day and terrorist by not and it provides an ideal mechanism not only for raising under the cover of charity but then transferring laundering money not just for the social activities but for all the activities of the organization and does hamas also use it as

a tool of recruitment as well absolutely as we mentioned earlier you know you get people in the front door you have an opportunity to interact with them to spot them to radicalize and recruit them levitt testified as an expert witness opining on essentially given bag ground to the jury on terrorist organizations and also. his view that bacteria being taken place in. palestine and israel is that recruitment for the military wing only now. what sort of services does the social wing provide for the palestinian population medical services food education a variety of social welfare type services women's groups soccer clubs certainly mosques you know study groups a place to go a wide range of activities. and it would you say that uses social welfare activity

to win the hearts and minds of the palestinian people actually with. one of the laws that was passed is a law referred to as the material support statute and the material support statute says that it's against the law for an a us citizen or any resident who lives in the united states to provide material support to a designated terrorist for example if calio meek left dallas texas today after this interview and i got on a plane and i flew to somalia and tomorrow i feed over two hundred people from home that but after i feed them somebody comes up to me and says. did you know that three people who came today and ate your food there are associated with a group called al-shabaab well al-shabaab is designated as a terrorist organization so technically i just fed three terrorists is that

material support that question was not answered in the statute is anything that's true but providing such material support in my estimation is just as important or more important in in in being able to advance that goes over terrorist organization. now you have also lectured for an organization called the jewish federation. correct that is right and that is a fund raising organization for a pac. correct that would be news to me the jewish federation is the organization the coordinates fund raising of the jewish community for everything from local services jewish and non jewish they do fund raising for israel also but i also let you for arab think tanks and others as well my question was have you spoken at apac. is the answer yes or no i think it's pretty clear the answer is

yes. and you have spoken at several of their conferences happened i have and often said things they did like the united states put on evidence over and over again of buses being blown up in israel which had. violent acts by hamas which the holy land had nothing to do with but they would try to do and tried to develop an atmosphere for the jury a fear about how mouse there was a time where the jury left the room and the judge left the room and my father yelled this is an extension of the israeli occupation the zionist occupation of palestine and he was yelling in houston period and he was yelling because the judge refused continuously refused to enter evidence that would have shown in the kind

of work that the buddha foundation do imagine if you were juror in texas and your president from texas had already told you that this is a terrorist group and they are training kids to come kill you. what kind of impact with it have you had had an impact the judge was so much on the government side that at one point. in the first trial. i said to the judge and i can't remember mike that words but it was something to the effect of the prosecutor said you know over there your honor we don't need a second prosecutor and everyone thought that i was going to go to jail that day. unbelievable it sounds like an agreement between criminal busts slight trading.

stolen goods that have been taken by the place if anyone ever comes to ask that question is for throw their hands up in the air and say i don't know i was just nominee director we're doing a an investigation into. ukraine and you're a fraud which you can corrupt our i don't know i've been on corrupt the just the presidency council zero investigation it's the only go this time. the town of edm is one of the most polluted places in the occupied west bank truckloads of electronic waste make their way here every day the vast majority coming from israel to surrounding illegal jewish settlements each item is taken apart the bars then are sold back to israel but its valuable materials such as copper wire that are the most profitable. a good chunk of this waste gets burnt illegally because it's simply cheaper and easier just jack copper this way usually happens on the hill surrounding the time but this is agriculture a lot of

a look at what's left behind ashes and met those guys miss back is furious which each fire more of his crops are destroyed some up on on on it's like a cancer that no one can walk here anymore yes suffocating even the sheep can't be here they're not breathing anymore look at the my old three used isn't the debt as she. there are a clock in london the top stories here on al-jazeera and donald trump says the newly released book which cost doubts over his fitness for office is a work of fiction the president has described in a fury inside the truck white house is full of lies misrepresentations and sources that do not exist the book questions his ability to do his job and claims his stuff

you him the child on twitter he called himself a stable genius i consider it a work of fiction and i think it's a disgrace that somebody is able to have something do something like that the libel laws are very weak in this country if they were strong it would be very helpful you wouldn't have things like that happen where you can say whatever comes to your head but just so you know i never interviewed with him in the white house at all he was never in the oval office we didn't have an interview and i did a quick interview with him a long time ago having to do with an article but i don't know this man thousands more pro-government demonstrators have been rallying in iran in this show of strength following more than a week about government protests the supporters marched in the streets waving iranian flags and chanting and western slogans runs government to accuse western nations of fomenting the unrest which is seen twenty two people killed and more than a thousand arrested in the last ten days for government of saudi arabia says that

eleven princes have been detained in riyadh off to staging a protest outside the royal palace being held in the taurus high security prison in stark contrast to dozens of other high profile figures it would taint in a luxury hotel last year during the corruption drive the princes were reportedly protesting against a number of new or start he wishes. there have been angry scenes in the occupied west bank as the patriarch of jerusalem arrived at manger square in bethlehem for christmas if the third has been at the center of growing public anger or to be accused of selling off large swathes of church land to private businesses at least seventeen people have been killed by as strikes in the rebel held area of eastern ghouta in syria. also launched by syrian forces on areas of countryside outside the capital damascus are up to date with the top stories head on out is are

they with this zero world continue. all right. please be seated. come in there was no evidence established that the holy land foundation itself was a terrorist organization that was not the allegation the allegation was that they were providing material support to a terrorist organization. does the name of the cow kill you secant committee appear on the treasury department list today. dump. the. islamic charity society of hebron does not name appear on the list and didn't appear on the list as of june fourteenth two thousand and one no and it doesn't appear there today either correct or not. i will go through the rest of them collectively and

let's see if the answers are to say. ok. he told carmen to cut committee the nablus akad committee there are a model as the cad committee the janine's acad committee and the islamic science and culture committee is it fair to say that the names of none of those organizations appeared on the treasury department list as of june fourteenth two thousand and one those names do not and today they don't appear on that list either correct correct the names of any board members of those account committees appear on the treasury department list as of june fourteenth two thousand and one not to my knowledge but as you said it is a very big list but i don't think so and today same not to your knowledge correct. in holy land the government had this anonymous witness who had the name avi the fake name avi. in to my knowledge there's never been an expert witness in

a case in a criminal case who was secret the way he was this was a new event there sometimes have been witnesses who have been secret but not experts. and have you reviewed records in the course of preparation for your testimony to suggest that the holy land foundation gave money to the same organizations that we've been talking about yes all of them the question is where is this charity going and how would support the hamas organization that is objective i can find several levels one level is that it's support the population support all the population to win the hearts and minds we see how they do this many examples there is no secret to the to the trees who controls disk images. the posters the settlement is there not hiding this the opposite they're trying to

suppress the fact that they're part of hamas and the showing it. on the person who comes for support of the food those who supports him and his obligated to the organization this is how. they win the hearts and minds the most simple way but the most sophisticated way and he testified that each of these the cut committees to which the holy land foundation gave money was associated in some fashion with hamas he also testified about terrorist attacks that hamas had conducted inside israel he presented photographs gory photographs of the aftermath of some of those bombings none of which the holy land foundation had anything to do with mr trail do you have any questions for mr i mean. i do your thank you. what is your rank in the i.r.s. a israeli security agency i lanka's manager live what is your specific title.

i'm the legal advisor of the counterterrorism division. now when you work as someone who has researched in this area. every taken in courses concerning hamas in any learning centers universities or anywhere else not to the university though i wish that were so so have you taken the course outside money is hamas out of the i say no what books have you run on hamas i read books. time of hamas salami shot. from the way of a lot to the jihad and another book by the shopkeeper and another also read on the member. a few articles from the universities have you written any works on the subject outside the usa they may have been published. and i'm not allowed to do that i'm sure when. you look part of any university. you don't hold

positions of professor or anything like that. and integrate siller prosecution that started the unit two thousand investigation. that was the beginning of your involvement in this opium that's correct. so all the things we're talking about the glue before two thousand. you've done by research. most of it most bio search self research have you ever read a book about say kagami. i didn't read the book it's you maybe there is i would like to read it if the defense is on an open and unaware of the identity of the individual was. unable to do the kind of investigation that you would want to do to determine whether the witnesses has any buy you see is or has.

other past experiences that might undermine his or her credibility and you're not able to do that work that's a that's a real cost to a fair defense that's a very fair question and it's a it's a very difficult issue and we wrestled with that in the trial and but we felt like we could give them everything about this witness that they needed to be able to cross-examine the witness but for the name the second anonymous witness as well who went by the name of majorly or they were there as representatives of the israeli security apparatus to make the case against. people who were supporting needy palestinians those weren't the only witnesses in my estimation they provided more flavor than subs and have testimony in the case and i think but i think it was part of the evidence i think the evidence in total stablish that these defendants

knew that the money they were providing were actually material support providing material support to hamas so i i couldn't do believe and find out anything about your work right brown is that correct. i've been going to smarting. i found myself we don't know your name and said i think. you helped prepare the government witnesses in that case correct and you reviewed with the prosecutors which exhibits going to be put in which were not to be put. with not all the exhibits we had a lot. but as part of them yes concerning to the specific issue of time dealing with no. you know the. documents received either in operation defensive shield in the spring of two thousand and two or later is that correct.

are you talking about the experts yes. yes if i am correct. you are the u.s. prosecutors given access to these military bases where the materials are can. withdraw. those materials that are the exhibits they will being stored at israeli military bases. correct the u.s. prosecutors given access to those military bases. if u.s. prosecutors authonomy felony a laugh what vehicle and let them what they had to let me up on and that with vehicle waheeda i'm very key here today in was at the holy land foundation layer that level going to the column on at the level of fear at the. lucky lady who did then even walk at eleven slightly wildly with her at the mattel

arbiter but the u.s. obviously had made a deal with israel that if he came in testified it would were he would remain secret his lawyers came with him you are the legal advisor and yet you have your own legal advisor. to be on the safe side. are you looking at your lawyer. is that what you're doing are you looking at your lawyer do you need to consult. is it a crime. do you need to consult with him i don't want to get you in trouble. ladies and gentlemen of the jury i was asked with respect to mr abbey to allow him to. and so with his legal advisor if you felt that answering a question on cross-examination might require the disclosure of classified information i did grant this request so because he has

a legal adviser seated near the radio in the court if mr ravi feels he needs to consult with his legal adviser i have granted his permission the government made a big effort to link our clients to anyone in their family who were hamas supporters like michele to mars zouk who was a hamas supporter that little secret in the last. one of. a son that i saw and spent time or was i want to look. now. a whore men of all of them sought in the communist era in the united states we made it a crime to be a member of the communist party we were afraid of communism and we targeted people not for their acts but for their associations their membership with the communist

party ultimately the supreme court said that's unconstitutional you can't punish somebody just because he's associated with the communist party you have to show that he intended to further the illegal ends of the group not just that he's associated with the group well i think this material support statute under which the holy land foundation board was prosecuted is a guilt by association statute in modern garb principle evidence for the defense in the case consisted of testimony from edward abington who had been the u.s. consul in jerusalem. my name is edward abington i'm a former. diplomat i third spent thirty years dealing mainly with the middle east specifically arab israeli issues my last overseas assignment was as the american

consul general in jerusalem from one thousand nine hundred ninety three to one nine hundred ninety seven. we never received any warnings or. caution about dealing with the holy land foundation they were considered to be a legitimate american charity and i was familiar with the work with their work they had a good reputation for honesty and can providing assistance to the people who really needed it. the united states has never labeled zakat committees as controlled by hamas or as being. a terrorist organizations and in fact up until two thousand and seven two thousand and eight. a idea was channeling assistance. through american in geos working with sakata committees so the allegation that he israelis made that these organizations were

basically controlled with hamas was certainly not the view of the united states government at the time i was serving in jerusalem or for that matter afterwards and i was very contradictory i mean it was like the left hand doesn't know what the right hand was doing. right or. what. i want to. listen to the. so helli you know between lane to the moon the on the c.s.c. camera and. jimmy lee jen is a care for the fellow to be a t.v.

they can. also. mean a lot or don't know me or i really am here to be more forthcoming was out of. the salt water any of the media for him can be a problem in law. serious. enough sin for a letter to canonical a cause here i mean must. mean must. kill us. internationally. to put a germanium in maurice's and here is the deal of money. and fuel because lawfully that initially i don't let it have been lost they do indeed be it for him a sharia can't be all the better of him a should i let you put him at elaine in. the city million eight. the defense was trying to say look. the

justice department is alleging that. the holy land foundation is supporting terrorism because they're working with aka committees but we have a long list of projects funded by the us government working with american n.g.o.s who worked with zakat committees and we have the documentation to show this. the the court kept a lot of that documentation out of the trial these defendants picked a particular finance or giving money to that csicop committees knowing it was going to hamas whether it's a legitimate or not really isn't it is you it's whether they knew that the money that was being funneled to the committees were actually going to hamas and i think we have established that at trial but the united states government was also given money to. you know i don't remember that.

as being in that. you know it's been a long time and at a minimum you should be prosecuted for providing child electively to a group that has not even been put on a list so that you have notice that you're not supposed to be aiding it i mean they checked the list there they were the board of h l f could check the list and they would say ok here's the groups that are on the list we're not going to support any of those here's groups that are not on the list we can support both. in order to fight these allegations we had to read all of the discovery from the government that we could read and that raised a big problem because there were ten years of wire taps. that were all almost all in arabic and we couldn't read here we couldn't understand them our clients for and

allowed to read them or listen to them because they were classified we also presented evidence from john bryant. who was a former congressman who represented the holy land foundation after he left congress but nine hundred ninety seven the whole foundation me as an attorney to help them with the problem i personally contacted the federal bureau of investigation and we met with leaders of the dallas office of the federal bureau of investigation on two occasions to say we had seen these articles in the newspaper and wanted to know. are you are are is holding a foundation of interest. and if so what why we had those meetings in both cases we were given no guidance no advice no confirmation that they were under investigation i met with the number two man in the israeli embassy she. said look i don't know what your concerns are but if you will convey to me with the concerns or

the whole damn foundation will operate in such a way that you're no longer can see. here greeted that perhaps this was a good suggestion and he would get back to me. but weeks passed and he did not get back to me so i contacted him and he informed me that his government had told him not to communicate any further with over their foundations. can only good numbers from someone who has not seen one of them with us in london on my desk. i do not combine words and. i might come to one side. of the fight the team couldn't and then when we met them at the foot of it was something. funny and the whole thing might come out of the south. and

i would been waiting at. the cervix today for the cover of sports gear as the dallas jury failed to reach a verdict against five accused of something like. the fact that supporters call which a lot of guts cost lots of fighting terrorists. should feel took one single picture. not been able to agree some of them voted for guilty for some charges and some voted not guilty but it had to be unanimous and there was not a single charge that the where the jury was unanimous so the case was over one.

down i. mean. this was a very joyous time for us we were just gone. and this was like a few moments of happiness that we had and that we could really hold on to i. feel we have no. legal. i. think i think. with the. whole thing. going and looking.
