Inspired by Oscar Schindler, Jewish Businessman Leads Effort to Rescue Christian, Yaz

Oskar Schindler would be proud...

He might be enabling, but interests do coincide. If you go to the discussion on the site, the initiative does have consideration for 2nd, 3rd order effect

Looking at this, and reading the Q&A they have on the GoFundMe site, it states that the money goes to brokers who purchase the girls from ISIS.

It's got good intentions, but my understanding is that part of the donation will go into ISIS hands. I don't think it takes ISIS too much money to take new hostages and each one sold probably brings in more slaves.

Now if TS started a go fund me page to send ballistic introductions to Jesus to ISIS and rescue slaves, that would be a worthwhile investment. I have a hard time justifying allowing any of my money go to terrorists.
