In 2013, four of the adult children of Ireland's leading Muslim Brotherhood cleric,
Hussein Halawa
of the Clonskeagh mosque,
were arrested in Egypt in the massive Muslim Brotherhood demos.
The three daughters were released later in 2013.
The son, Ibrahim Halawa, was released in 2017.
Back in Ireland, it would be nice to think they would have second thoughts about their father's awful ideas that got them jailed in Egypt.
It would be nice to think they would rebel against Muslim Brotherhood ideas
and become liberals.
Since release in 2017, Ibrahim Halawa has become a public figure, making speeches in Ireland and abroad.
Many of these speeches contain political ideas.
Bad political ideas.
Ibrahim blames Islamic jihadist terrorism
on torture in Egyptian prisons,
rather than, say, on the philosophy of jihadism that the Muslim Brotherhood spreads and promotes.
He mentions prisoners tortured by Egypt,
and then explains this is why they attack Europe.
Why Europe?
He claims Europe is "helping" Egypt in some vague way, but this is very tenuous.
His explanation of why jihadis attack Europe makes no sense.
In reality, we know why jihadis become jihadis, and Ibrahim ignores it.
He ignores what groups like the
ECFR
and the
Muslim Brotherhood
say about jihad.
Ibrahim Halawa at an anti-Israel protest in Dublin, Jan 2018.
Also here.
He is protesting in favour of young Palestinian radical
Ahed Tamimi
(from a family of radicals).
Ahed Tamimi supports
stabbings and suicide bombings
(also here).
Notice the sinister slogans on the placard,
describing Islamic terrorists as "freedom fighters",
and supporting "resistance" in the context of a brutally violent Islamic terror campaign.
The radical left Amnesty Ireland
continues to promote Halawa, Apr 2018.
They say he is "brave"
for standing up for his father's beliefs.
Now he is home, what would be really brave
(and would do a lot of good)
would be if he stood against his father's beliefs.
Ibrahim on 13 May 2018 posts about a woman whose son has spent 26 years in Israeli prisons "for no reason".
Her name is
Mazyounah Abu Srour.
Her son is Nasser Abu Srour, arrested in 1993
after he killed an
Israeli Shin Bet security agent.
So much for "no reason".
Ibrahim tweets about "the occupation" in May 2020.
But this is not in the West Bank or Gaza.
This is from an
Al Jazeera story in 2020
(see text)
where an Arab former resident of
Ijzim
in Israel returns to see his old family home, now the home of some Israelis.
Ijzim is south of Haifa, inside the 1967 borders.
The man Ibrahim calls the "owner" of the house
has not lived in it since 1948.
So is all of Israel an "occupation" now?
I have discussed the
Halawa case
on my site and in the media
since 2013.
At no point did Ibrahim Halawa or any of his family ever explain a fact I got wrong.
They avoided talking about me, since my facts were correct.
In Nov 2021, bizarrely, Ibrahim Halawa suddenly talked about me.
And what he said was lies and defamation.
Ibrahim Halawa libels me on Twitter, 23 Nov 2021.
He calls me a "racist bigot".
His "evidence" is a defamatory tweet by a student called Fawwaz Kekere-Ekun
of fake quotes alleged to be from me.
The tweet by Fawwaz Kekere-Ekun was
so fake that he later had to delete it.
Shameful stuff.
Shame on Ibrahim Halawa.
He claims that my extensive, fully sourced and referenced pages about
his case
contain "false accusations and defamation".
He does not explain what the "false accusations and defamation" are.
That would be great.
But he cannot.
He has never even tried.
Because there are no false accusations or defamation.
The "false accusations and defamation" were published by me in the
Sunday Times
in 2016.
The Sunday Times has lots of money.
Why did his family or campaign not sue them?
It's a mystery.
Why did his family or campaign not even write a letter to the paper?
Or issue a statement?
It's a mystery.
Lies about me:
Halawa lies about me.
He claims that I refer to BLM as "the blacks".
Notice he cannot quote me saying that.
It is of course made up, a lie.
All he has to do is go to my page on
Black Lives Matter
and do Ctrl-F to see it is a lie.
But he is too lazy to do that.
Instead he repeats a lie he got from Fawwaz Kekere-Ekun, who later deleted it.
Halawa lies about me further,
saying
I have "white supremacist ideas".
No evidence is provided.
It is just defamation, because he is unable to debate.
He lies about me further,
saying I engage in "racism".
No evidence is provided.
It is just defamation, because he is unable to debate.
It is hilarious that Ibrahim Halawa is judging who is "racist" and who is not.
Here he
speaks at
the vast Muslim Brotherhood protest in Cairo in June-Aug 2013.
In his speech
he cited two actual racists as his leaders.
The racists that Ibrahim cited in his speech as his leaders are:
Salah Soltan, senior Muslim Brotherhood leader,
who: (a) spreads the medieval blood libel against the Jews,
(b) says Israeli tourists in Egypt should be killed,
and: (c) says people all over the world "thirst for the blood of the Jews".
Mohamed Morsi, senior Muslim Brotherhood leader,
who: (a) says Jews are "the descendants of apes and pigs",
(b) says children should be raised to hate the Jews,
(c) says apostates from Islam should be killed,
and: (d) says proselytisers for other religions should be killed.
Ibrahim may not have known about their racism, but he does now, if he is reading this.
It would be great if he would renounce these racists,
and their racist organisation, the Muslim Brotherhood.
Your turn, Ibrahim.
In 2015, Fatima Halawa described my
research on the
Halawa case as
"lies"
but declined to explain why.
I gave her plenty of chances to explain why, but got nothing.
In 2016, I wrote about the case in the
Sunday Times.
Fatima did not reply.
She did not even write a letter to the paper.
In 2019, Fatima Halawa
was elected to the committee of a Muslim Brotherhood body.
In 2021, Ibrahim Halawa
described my research on the Halawa case as "false accusations and defamation"
but declined to explain why.
Not content with speaking at the rally of a racist organisation,
citing two racists as his leaders,
lying about me with made-up fake quotes,
and declaring himself an authority on who is "racist",
Ibrahim Halawa emerged again in May 2022, this time as an intermediary for a racist hate preacher.
On 2 April 2022, they hosted
Egyptian preacher Omar Abdelkafi,
who calls for all Jews to be exterminated:
"O Allah, we complain to you about the Jews, as they can not escape you, O the mighty of the heavens and the earth.
O Allah, count their number; slay them one by one and spare not one of them".
For a man with no connection
to the
Muslim Brotherhood,
Ibrahim Halawa continues for some reason to be interested in it.
Ibrahim Halawa posts a tribute to
Yusuf Al-Qaradawi,
spiritual head of the Muslim Brotherhood, on his death in Sept 2022.
From here.
He also retweeted
an official tribute
on Twitter.
Yusuf Al-Qaradawi
praises Hitler and the Holocaust,
Jan 2009.
Noted expert on "racism" Ibrahim Halawa posted a tribute to this man on his death.
6 years after the "Halawa Four" were arrested: One of the Halawa Four is elected to the committee of a Muslim Brotherhood body, Oct 2019.
Fatima Halawa was elected to the committee of The Forum of European Muslim Youth and Student Organisations (FEMYSO).
FEMYSO is a
Muslim Brotherhood body.
It is the youth/student arm of the
Federation of Islamic Organizations in Europe
(FIOE),
a Muslim Brotherhood body.
