The Hamas-Muslim Brotherhood Network in the United States

The October 7, 2023, Sabbath Massacre in Israel and the ongoing war between Israel and Iran’s many proxies in the region has many Americans wondering why does this matter to us?

As we explained in our article “Americans Owe Israel A Big Thank You” it’s America that Islamists are really after, and Israel is just in the way.

And more to the point, as our friend John D. Guandolo documented in his must-read report The Hamas-Muslim Brotherhood Network in the United States this war isn’t something that is happening “over there,” the Islamists are here in the United States prepared to bring jihadi terrorism and death to our towns and cities and their plans have progressed further than our federal government is willing to admit.

Guandolo is a 1989 graduate of the U.S. Naval Academy who took a commission as an Officer in the United States Marine Corps. He served with 2d Battalion 2d Marines as an Infantry Platoon Commander in combat Operations Desert Shield/Storm. He later joined the Federal Bureau of Investigation and ultimately became one of the FBI’s designated "subject matter expert" with acknowledged expertise in the Muslim Brotherhood, Islamic Doctrine, the global Islamic Movement, and terrorist organizations including Hamas, Al Qaeda, and others. He concluded his government service at the Department of Defense conducting Strategic Analysis on the Global Islamic Movement.

In short, there’s no one better equipped to explain the threat the Islamist Movement presents to the American Homeland than John Guandolo.

As Mr. Guandolo explained, due to the nature and extent of the threat from the Hamas/Muslim Brotherhood network, and the larger U.S. Islamic Movement, as well as the fact they work seamlessly at the national and ground level with elements of the U.S. communist Movement which has a significant network in the United States as well, this threat can be likened to an insurgency.

This insurgency is the “Red-Green Axis” we’ve been telling you about for many years and that you saw operating on college campus riots in support of Hamas after it perpetrated the Sabbath Massacre in Israel.

In a counterinsurgency, wrote Mr. Guandolo the focus of effort to defeat enemies of liberty must come from the local level. Usually, local efforts can obtain “top cover” from federal/national level assets while they fight the enemy at the ground level. In the United States today, the extreme corruption at the federal level of the U.S. government, in all of the key components of government and on both sides of the political aisle, makes it nearly impossible to plan for any such support from the federal government.

This failure at the top of our government goes way back, it started with George W. Bush’s “Islam is a religion of peace” trope and it accelerated under Obama’s great purge from the military and government of anyone who knew anything about the Muslim threat.

Mr. Guandolo’s answer to this is to push knowledge of the jihadi movement threat down to the local level and to empower local citizens and law enforcement with the knowledge necessary to identify and counter it in their communities.

For those with little or no understanding of the significant jihadi threat to America, this report is meant to be a “red star cluster" awakening citizens, and hopefully leaders, to the grave danger America faces from the concerted 6-decades long efforts of the U.S. Muslim Brotherhood in the United States, of which Hamas is a major part.

While significant Iranian/Hizbollah, Deobandi, and other jihadi networks exist in North America, the focus of this report will primarily be the Muslim Brotherhood for the simple reason Hamas is the “Palestinian Wing of the Muslim Brotherhood,” and the MB leads the Islamic Movement in the United States.

As Mr. Guandolo explains, the “Global Islamic Movement” as the participants themselves call it, is well entrenched in American society, operating in the open, and waging total war along multiple lines of operation against the United States.

It is important for citizens to understand the breadth of the jihadi and communist Movements in America, and since Obama’s “Great Purge” how significantly these elements have penetrated the key institutions of the U.S. federal government.

As the report documents, the adversaries of liberty and active adherents to our enemy’s cause are “inside the wire” working at the White House, Department of Defense, Congress and the federal bureaucracy.

Here’s a short list of key jihadi operatives who have gotten “inside the wire” identified in Mr. Guandolo’s report:

Maher Bitar - Senior Director for Intelligence Programs on the Biden National Security Council (NSC) who also served on President Obama’s NSC as Director for Israeli and Palestinian Affairs. He is a Palestinian who was an official with UNRWA (United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East) during the time it directly funded and materially supported the designated terrorist group Hamas.

Ariane Tabatabai - former Chief of Staff for ASD-SOLIC (Assistant Secretary of Defense for Special Operations and Low Intensity Conflict). Official Department of Defense policy defines the role of ASD-SOLIC as follows: “ASD(SO/LIC) oversees and advocates for Special Operations and Irregular Warfare throughout the Department of Defense to ensure these capabilities are resourced, ready, and properly employed in accordance with the National Defense Strategy.” In fact, Ariane Tabatabai is an agent of Iran who reported directly to an IRGC (Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps) Commander.

Muzammil Siddiqi - arguably the most prolific Hamas/MB leader in North America. Siddiqi met with President Bush shortly after 9/11/01, works with several Members of Congress, works with law enforcement agencies, works closely with the Muslim Brotherhood’s “Interfaith Outreach” efforts in the U.S., works within the Department of Defense, and is often the front man after terrorists strike in America to persuade the public to exclude Islam as the cause of any terrorism.

Mohamed Magid - One of nine Commissioners on the United States Commission on International Religious Freedom appointed by President Joe Biden. Magid was the Vice President and President of ISNA (Islamic Society of North America) for over a decade and is a key leader in the U.S. Islamic Movement. ISNA is identified by the Department of Justice as a U.S. Muslim Brotherhood organization which directly funds Hamas leaders and organizations.

Nihad Awad - the current leader of Hamas (doing business as CAIR - Council on American Islamic Relations). Awad - true name NIHAD HAMAD - works with U.S. security agencies including DHS and FBI, and frequently works inside the U.S. Capitol. Awad has been given significant access to the Biden White House. Despite his open support for the October 7, 2023 Hamas attack on Israel, Awad is still quietly working with leaders inside the U.S. government despite his public rebuke.

Farooq Mitha - “Islamic Advisor” for Hillary Clinton and Joseph Biden during their Presidential campaigns, and currently serves in the Biden administration as the Director of the Department of Defense (DoD) Office of Small Business Programs (OSBP). Mitha is a board member for the U.S. Hamas group Emgage.

Huma Abedin – Who is now apparently engaged to Alex Soros, one of the leading funders of Leftist causes in the United States, making her a one person nexus of the Red-Green Axis. Abedin’s family, including her brother, father and mother, is deeply involved in Muslim Brotherhood organizations, including affiliations with Al Qaeda financier Abdullah Omar Naseef. Abedin’s mother, Saleha Abedin, is a board member of Islamic Council for Dawa and Relief, a part of the designated terrorist organization Union for Good founded by Hamas/MB global legal scholar Yusuf Qaradawi (deceased).

Kifah Mustapha - senior U.S. Hamas leader operating in the Chicago, Illinois area. Mustapha is identified by the Department of Justice as a member of the U.S. Muslim Brotherhood’s Palestine Committee, which is Hamas in the United States. Mustapha participated in the FBI’s Citizen’s Academy in the Chicago area and was given access and tours of FBI Headquarters, FBI Quantico facilities, and the NCTC (National Counterterrorism Center). Government officials inside the NCTC told the media their systems had to be “unplugged” to allow Mustapha into the NCTC because he is on terrorist watchlists. The FBI defended Mustapha as being “an important member of the Palestinian community in Chicago.”

When George W. Bush spoke at the Islamic Center of Washington, D.C. on 9/17/2001 – 6 days after 9/11 - he had U.S. Hamas leader Nihad Awad on one side of him, and the Deputy for Al Qaeda financier Alamoudi - Khalid Saffuri - on the other side.

Dar al Hijra Islamic Center - one of the leading mosques in Northern Virginia. Dar al Hijra was founded by the Muslim Brotherhood/Hamas. Specifically, the “godfather” of the U.S. Muslim Brotherhood - Jamal Barzinji - signed the deed.

The leadership ranks of Dar al Hijra over the years is a who’s who in the terrorist realm, and include members of Al Qaeda, Hamas, and other terrorist groups. Dar al Hijra Imams, Presidents, Youth leaders, fundraisers and others are among those who are/were Al Qaeda and Hamas leaders/members.

Prior to becoming the current FBI Deputy Director, Paul Abbate spoke at the Dar al Hijra praising it and stating the FBI needed to recruit agents out of Dar al Hijra. This is similar to comments about Dar al Hijra from former FBI Director Robert Mueller III. See a video capturing this information at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lHwGE4AmhJ8 .

The Department of Homeland Security’s “Countering Violent Extremism Working Group” has at least 4 Hamas/Muslim Brotherhood operatives involved as members or “Subject Matter Experts” including, but not limited to: Mohamed Elibiary, Mohamed Magid, Dalia Mogahed, and Arif Alikhan.

White House logs reveal senior Hamas/MB leaders were in the White House dozens of times during the Obama administration. These Hamas/MB leaders include, but are not limited to: Muzammil Siddiqi, Louay Safi, Esam Omeish, Salam al Marayati, Hussam Ayloush, and Alejandro Butel.

The “White House dinner celebrating Ramadan” has included Muslim Brotherhood operatives: Yahya Hendi, Ingrid Mattson, Jihad Saleh Williams, Eboo Patel, Dalia Mogahed, Farhana Khera, and other jihadis.

These jihadi efforts have two primary objectives: (1) gather intelligence, and (2) influence the leaders and power mechanisms inside the government structure to create policies and policing and war-fighting strategies, and move public opinion in their favor.

The Muslim Brotherhood calls it “Civilization Jihad” to get OUR leaders to do THEIR (jihadis’) bidding for them and they are well on their way to victory. We urge CHQ readers and friends to download The Hamas-Muslim Brotherhood Network in the United States, read it and share it with your local law enforcement and legislators to educate them and raise their awareness on their crucial role in defeating “Civilization Jihad” in your community.
