While waiting for jurors in Dallas to decide whether officials at the Holy Land Foundation illegally funneled millions of dollars to Hamas, it's worth noting that a leading British bank is cracking down on a similar Hamas support arm.
Interpal is claiming that a decision by Lloyd's TSB to cut off its accounts next month could lead to the charity's closure.
The U.S. Treasury Department designated Interpal as a terrorist entity in August 2003, saying it was used "to hide the flow of money to HAMAS." But the British government so far has declined to act in kind. The United Kingdom Charity Commission is investigating Interpal for a third time
Here is a good summary of Interpal and the British investigations.

Hamas Funders: The Misbegotten: an improper basis of origin
Submitted by Queen of Sheba, Nov 20, 2008 21:41
Interpal, a charity depot and CAIR, an Islamic civil rights organization were designed as fronts for Hamas fundraising. An unsuspecting donor, as well as a shrewd terrorist finds nobility in the support of charities and civil rights. The Palestinian Hamas terrorist front groups celebrate in bamboozling the ignorant infidels with a 'fifth column' of Islam, deceit. There remains a major deficit in definitions regarding charity and civil rights. Interpal and CAIR are allowed to attend a costume party in masquerade. Charity and civil rights organizations are untouchables, as American as apple pie. One would hope that the jurors in Dallas are not duped by the terrorist pixie dust.
