After years of investigation, U.S. government agencies have taken punitive action against the Columbia, Missouri-based Islamic African Relief Agency (IARA) for purported links to the Taliban, Al-Qaida, and Usama Bin Laden. An exclusive dossier shows that at least $250,000 IARA raised for "charity" in 1999 actually ended up in the coffers of an Al-Qaida front group that provided weapons and travel documents to the Millenium terror network.
