Abstract

Funding activity is one thing that is quite crucial for the survival of a group or organization. The methods of raising funds often commingle legitimate with illegitimate sources of funding, the individual parts of the mix becoming not only untraceable to their source, but virtually indistinguishable from each other. This article will discuss how the dynamics of the al-Jama'ah al-Islamiyah (al-JI) in conducting funding for their groups. The first part will explain the financing of terrorist groups in general; continued with the funding dynamics of the al-JI group to date; and also the role of the government in handling funding for terrorism.
