Is there any proof of the charity claims? Because Wikipedia gives nothing
Would be a bad hacker if he left a trail of all the money
Money leaves a trail by itself, it doesn't magically disappear and reappear somewhere else
I mean no, it doesn't, youre right.
Declaring income would be what most of those charities ans whatnot would prolly need to do somewhere at least. So I find this story dubious.
At the same time though, it is technically possible for him to have put money on crypto and email someone the keys to the wallets.

Al-Jazeera is not a credible source
More credible than most US media conglomerate news sources
Oh my God, could there be alternatives somewhere between the US and radical Islamists? 😱
Sure. Jacobin et al
Aljazeera is a fine source as long as you're not looking at their news regarding Qatar/Qatari interests.
MBFC Credibility Rating: MEDIUM CREDIBILITY
Bias Rating: LEFT-CENTER (-3.2) Factual Reporting: MIXED (4.7) Country: Qatar MBFC’s Country Freedom Rank: LIMITED FREEDOM Media Type: TV Station Traffic/Popularity: High Traffic
What’s a good unbiased source? As an example I checked DW on the above website and while they’re rated as being left center and having a high factual reporting, thanks to Germany’s general bias they currently report very little about Palestine.
Pretty much any word in the picture is contradicted by the Wikipedia article
As many narrative exist depending on who's facts you're listening to.
