The Islamic group “Celebrate Mercy” raised over $238,000 for the Tree of Life Synagogue in Pittsburgh after a crazed anti-Semite and Trump-hater murdered 11 Jews during a Saturday morning service in October.
** $10,000 went to the Jewish Synagogue.
** $155,000 Went to the Islamic Center of Pittsburgh.
** It’s not clear what happened to the rest.
$10,000 went to Tree of Life synagogue, while $155,000 went to the Islamic Center of Pittsburgh (!). People should be demanding their money back from @lsarsour.https://t.co/fx0a6eiWN2

COnservatrive Review reported:
According to the left-wing The Forward, the Islamic group Celebrate Mercy has already funneled $155,000 — of over $238,634 that was raised supposedly for the victims of the shooting and the greater Jewish community of Pittsburgh — into the Islamic Center of Pittsburgh. Though the Forward article states that a document was posted signed by a representative of Celebrate Mercy, the director of the Islamic Center, and a “Tree of Life representative detailing exactly how the funds will be distributed to victims and their families,” the link to the document is dead.
As for the remaining $83,634, raised above the fundraiser’s $150,000 goal, it will go toward the vague goal of “projects that help foster Muslim-Jewish collaboration, dialogue, and solidarity,” Celebrate Mercy director Tarek El-Messidi told The Forward.
Flashback: El-Messidi and Sarsour were also behind the 6-figure sum that was raised to "repair Jewish cemeteries." The money was never accounted for. Cemeteries said they never received a check. https://t.co/LPGMoEm3Tk
