(Free Beacon) The U.S. Department of Treasury, in a joint action with the Canadian government, sanctioned the Samidoun Palestinian Prisoner Solidarity Network and one of its leaders for providing material support to the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP), a terrorist organization that participated in the Oct. 7 Hamas terrorist attack. The move likely spells trouble for Samidoun’s U.S. collaborators, which include student activists and a major left-wing activist network, experts told the Washington Free Beacon.
The sanctions, unveiled on Tuesday, describe Samidoun as “a sham charity that serves as an international fundraiser for the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) terrorist organization.” They mark the most severe action to date against the group, cutting off its ability to fundraise across North America.
