It wouldn't surprise if other faith-based charities adhered to the same principles, so what is your point exactly?

I am not talking about Islamic Relief or Muslim Aid which are known charity orgs. The other night an organization called Islamic Forum Europe had a 7 hour live show to raise 30000 pounds. They far surpassed their total. I checked their website. They have no track record for doing charity work in the past. When an viewer called them to ask on air (all of this a live "telethon" thing), they said some of their people are taking the money to Bangladesh and it is not going through any organization. I couldn't find a registered charity number on their website although they flashed a charity number on the tv screen. Is there any accountibility for these funds that are being collected by faith based organizations with no track record of charity work?
