Huma Abedin follows closely behind her boss, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton
As five House members continue to call for an investigation of Muslim
Brotherhood influence on the federal government, a researcher who has
documented numerous ties between Hillary Clinton’s top aide and the
global Islamic supremacist movement has found another connection.
Huma Abedin, Clinton’s deputy chief of staff, who is said to advise
the secretary of state on Middle East policy, was a member of the
executive board of the Muslim Student Association,
according to an archived Web page discovered by researcher Walid Shoebat.
The Muslim Student Association, or MSA, was identified as a Muslim
Brotherhood front group in a 1991 document introduced into evidence
during the terror-financing trial of the Texas-based Holy Land
Foundation trial.
The
internal Brotherhood memo
said Muslim Brotherhood members “must understand that their work in
America is a kind of grand jihad in eliminating and destroying the
Western civilization from within and ‘sabotaging’ its miserable house by
their hands and by the hands of the believers so that it is eliminated
and Allah’s religion is made victorious over all other religions.”
While the MSA, with nearly 600 chapters in the U.S. and Canada, “has
gained legitimacy as a benevolent collegiate faith club,” it was
established in 1963 by Muslim Brotherhood leaders to recruit young
people into the movement, which is dedicated to “resurrecting true
Islamic governance worldwide” based on Islamic law, or Shariah,
according to a dossier by the Investigative Project on Terrorism.
Former MSA leaders directly tied to international violent jihad
include al-Qaida cleric Anwar al-Awlaki, convicted American student Ramy
Zamzam, Somali al-Shabaab leader Omar Hammami and al-Qaida fundraiser
Abdurahman Alamoudi, a former national MSA president who is now serving a
23-year prison sentence.
As
WND reported earlier this week,
Abedin worked for an organization founded by her family that is
effectively at the forefront of a grand Saudi plan to mobilize U.S.
Muslim minorities to transform America into a strict Wahhabi-style
Islamic state,
according to an Arabic-language manifesto issued by the Saudi monarchy.
Shoebat is a Palestinian American author and critic of radical Islam who has done
extensive research on the Abedin family’s connections to the Muslim Brotherhod and its Wahhabist affiliations.
Abedin, who was born in the U.S. but raised in Saudi Arabia, has been
fiercely defended by both Democrats and Republicans since five
Republican lawmakers led by Rep. Michele Bachmann, R-Minn., cited her as
an example of possible Muslim Brotherhood infiltration and asked the
inspector generals at the departments of Homeland Security, Justice and
State to investigate.
President Obama praised Abedin at a White House Ramadan dinner July
10, declaring her “nothing less than extraordinary in representing our
country and the democratic values that we hold dear.”
Abedin returned to the U.S. from Saudi Arabia about 1996 to work with
Clinton at the White House. At the same time, she became an assistant
editor for the mouthpiece of the Institute of Muslim Minority Affairs as
well as a member of the Muslim Students Association executive board at
George Washington University in the nation’s capital.

the title head of MSA chapter’s social committee, Shoebat reported.
The Institute for Muslim Minority Affairs – founded by her late
father and currently directed by her mother – is backed by the Muslim
World League, an Islamic organization found in the Saudi holy city of
Mecca and founded by Muslim Brotherhood leaders.
Washington
Post columnist Dana Milbank has suggested researchers and lawmakers who
have presented evidence of the Muslim Brotherhood ties of Abedin and
her family are motivated by racism. He commented in a column Aug. 13
that it’s “hard to escape the suspicion” that the charges have
“something to do with the way she looks and how she worships.”
Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., called the request for an investigation of
Abedin and her family “sinister” and “nothing less than an unwarranted
and unfounded attack on an honorable woman, a dedicated American and a
loyal public servant.”
