¶2. (C) During an introductory meeting July 9 with Hussain Nasser Al-Huraiti, Minister of Justice and Minister of Awqaf and Islamic Affairs, Ambassador discussed the designation of RIHS, TIP and the Moderation Center. In a cordial and frank exchange, Ambassador highlighted the need for transparency and oversight of RIHS and used the standards that the Kuwait Development Fund employs as an example to emulate. The Minister, who is a RIHS boardmember, defended the charity saying that the money it raised went to people who needed it and was not used for terrorism. Ambassador countered that the USG had evidence indicating funds from RIHS were being siphoned to terrorist organizations such as Lashkar E-Taiba and reaffirmed the need for oversight mechanisms for RIHS
[ed note:dont know wether this is indeed just simple funding of a religious madrassa,however i suspect kuwait is opening up new channel to train rebels there to go to syria later...
