According to the Investigative Project on Terrorism: “through a pan-European organization called the Europe Trust, Kuwait is tying Dutch and other European Muslims directly into the Muslim Brotherhood via complex financial, non-profit and religious networks that stretch from Spain to Ireland – and across the Atlantic to New York.” Based in the UK, the Europe Trust is funded largely by Kuwait, and, according to the Middle East Quarterly, “channels money from the Persian Gulf to groups sympathetic to the Brotherhood in Europe, primarily to build mosques.”
