Huma
Abedin's ties to the Muslim Brotherhood

The
Clinton campaign is attempting once again to sweep important
questions under the rug about top aide Huma Abedin, her family ties
to the Muslim Brotherhood and to Saudi Arabia, and her role in the
ballooning Clinton email scandal.
The
New York Post ran a detailed
investigative piece over
the weekend about Ms. Abedin’s work at the Journal of Muslim
Minority Affairs from 1995 through 2008, a Sharia law journal whose
editor in chief was Abedin’s own mother.
This is not some
accidental association. Ms. Abedin was, for many years, listed as an
associate editor of the London-based publication and wrote for the
journal while working as an intern in the Clinton White House in the
mid-1990s.
Her
mother, Saleha Abedin, sits
on the Presidency Staff Council of
the International Islamic Council for Da’wa and Relief, a group
that is chaired by the leader of the Muslim Brotherhood, Sheikh Yusuf
al-Qaradawi.
Perhaps
recognizing how offensive such ties will be to voters concerned over
future terrorist attacks on this country by radical Muslims
professing allegiance to Sharia law, the Clinton campaign on
Monday tried
to downplay Ms.
Abedin’s involvement in the Journal and the Muslim Brotherhood.
The
Clinton surrogate group Media Matters claimed predictably there was
“no evidence” that Ms. Abedin or her family had ties to the
Muslim Brotherhood, and that Trump campaign staffers who spoke of
these ties were conspiracy
theorists.
To
debunk the evidence, Media Matters pointed to a Snopes.com
“fact-check” piece that
cited as its sole source… Senator John
McCain.
This is the same John McCain who met Libyan militia leader Abdelkarim
Belhaj, a known al Qaeda associate, and saluted him as “my hero”
during a 2011 visit to Benghazi.
Senator
McCain and others roundly criticized Rep. Michele
Bachmann in
2012 when she and four members of the House Permanent Select
Committee Intelligence and the House Judiciary Committee cited Ms.
Abedin in letters sent to the Inspectors General of the Department of
Defense, Department of State, Department of Justice, Department of
Homeland Security, and the Office of the Director of National
Intelligence, warning about Muslim Brotherhood infiltration of the
United States government.
In
response to those critiques, Rep. Bachmann laid out the evidence in a
16-page memo, which
has never been refuted by Senator McCain or the elite media.
The
evidence, in my opinion, is overwhelming: Huma Abedin is nothing
short of a Muslim Brotherhood princess, born into an illustrious
family of Brotherhood leaders.
Her
father, Syed Zaynul Abedin, was a professor in Saudi Arabia who
founded the Institute for Muslim Minority Affairs, an institution
established by the Government of Saudi Arabia with the support of the
Muslim World League.
The
Muslim World League was “perhaps the most significant Muslim
Brotherhood organization in the world,” according to former federal
prosecutor Andrew
C. McCarthy. Its
then-General Secretary, Umar Nasif, founded the Rabita Trust, “which
is formally designated as a foreign terrorist organization under
American law due to its support of al Qaeda,” he wrote.
That
is not guilt by association but what federal prosecutors would call a
“nexus” of like-minded people who shared the same goals.
A
Saudi government document inspired
by Ms. Abedin’s father explains
the concept of “Muslim Minority Affairs,” the title of the
Journal Mr. Abedin founded, and its goal to “establish a global
Sharia in our modern times.”
Simply
put, Huma Abedin worked for thirteen years as part of an enterprise
whose explicit goal was to conquer the West in the name of Islam. No
wonder the Clinton campaign wants to sweep this issue under the rug.
Mrs.
Clinton has sometimes referred to Huma Abedin as her “second
daughter.” Whether it was because of their close relationship or
for some other reason, Mrs. Clinton has done much to further the
Muslim Brotherhood agenda while Secretary of State, and can be
counted on doing more as president.
As
Secretary of State, she relentlessly pushed the overthrow of Libyan
leader Mohammar Qaddafi, a dire enemy of the Brotherhood, even when
President Obama and his Secretary of Defense were reluctant to go to
war.
Along
with Obama, she pushed for the overthrow of Egyptian leader Hosni
Mubarak and his replacement by Muslim Brotherhood leader Mohammad
Morsi.
She
pushed for direct U.S. involvement in the Syrian civil war, including
the arming of Syrian rebels allied with al Qaeda.
As
I reveal in
my new book,
she worked side by side with the Organization of the Islamic
Conference, the umbrella group where 57 majority Muslim states pushed
their agenda of imposing Sharia law on the non-Muslim world, to use
hate crime laws in the United States to criminalize speech critical
of Islam, in accordance with United Nations Resolution 16/18.
Their
first victim in the United States was a Coptic Christian named
Nakoula Bassiley Nakoula, the maker of the YouTube video Hillary and
Obama blamed for Benghazi.
New
Abedin emails released to Judicial Watch this week show that Huma
Abedin served
as liaison between
Clinton Foundation donors, including foreign governments, and the
State Department.
When
foreign donors had difficult in getting appointments with Mrs.
Clinton through normal State Department channels, Clinton Foundation
executive Douglas Band would email Huma Abedin, and poof! the doors
would open as if by magic.
Donald
Trump has
criticized this as “pay for play.” But it also raises questions
as to whether Huma Abedin and Mrs. Clinton were in fact serving as
unregistered agents for foreign powers who sought to impose their
anti-freedom agenda on the United States.
The
United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia and Egypt outlawed the Muslim
Brotherhood as a terrorist organization in 2014. But by then, the
damage had been done.
Do
Americans want eight years of a President Clinton, who will do even
more to empower the Muslim Brotherhood and impose its agenda on
America?
