The memo also detailed 1993 meetings between officials of the militant Palestinian group and the charity, the Texas-based Holy Land Foundation for Relief and Development, to dis cuss fund-raising for the fami lies of suicide bombers. The Treasury Department used the FBI memo as grounds to freeze Holy Land’s assets and raid its offices this week. Holy Land officials denied the gov ernment’s accusation that they tunneled money to terrorists and promised to fight the freeze. Several prominent American Muslim groups called on President Bush to unfreeze Holy Land’s assets and said shutting down the foundation would damage America’s credibility with Muslims around the world and raise the spectre of a gov ernment attack on Islam. Working closely with Israeli intelligence, FBI inves tigators concluded in a 49- page report that Holy Land leaders were Hamas members and the charity was the pri mary U.S. fund-raising organ for the terrorist group. The memo cited a previously disclosed $210.0CX) donation to Holy Land from Mousa Abu Marzook, later identified Israeli officials as a Hr duty at Pei po 1 itical leader now in Sya said Marzook designated Land as Hamas’main raising arm.
