All about the Benjamins

The Jerusalem Post claims the Israeli security forces have made a dent in the seemingly endless treasury of Iran:
Security forces raided 14 offices and homes of money-changers in the West Bank on Wednesday whose owners were suspected of transferring funds to Palestinian terror activity against Israel. During the operation Israeli forces confiscated NIS 5 million as well as 17,000 dinars and various documents. Money-changers were arrested after being found in possession of three pistols and a rifle.

The Shin Bet said that most of the money-changers located in Jenin, Nablus, Tulkarm and Ramallah were behind the transfer of funds from Hamas, Islamic Jihad and Hizbullah headquarters located in Syria and Lebanon to the terror cells operating in the West Bank and the Gaza Strip. Most of the money, which came from Iran, was used to fund terror attacks, purchase weaponry, train terror cells and manufacture Kassam rockets.
I look forward to the day when the Mullah’s pocketbooks resemble my own after the children hit me up before school.
