So is a vote for El-Sayed a vote for bin Laden? Turns out his mother worked for an organization named by lawmen as literally sending cash to al-Qaeda.

We already know how woke-crazy Michigan Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed's half-sister at the University of Chicago is -- a screaming lunatic radical whose loathing for the U.S. knows no bottom. Hear her in action, here and here.

Now we learn that his mom, Fatten Fathy Elkomy, had her own way of hating on America.

According to Townhall's Amy Curtis:

It turns out Fatten Fathy Elkomy worked for the Islamic American Relief Agency (IARA), which was also known as the Islamic African Relief Agency, from 1999 through at least 2004.

The IARA ran 40 offices worldwide and claimed to focus on healthcare and providing for orphans and others in areas of conflict.

In 2004, however, the U.S. Treasury Department designated the organization and five senior officials as an organization supporting terrorism.

This includes support for Osama Bin Laden, the mastermind behind the al-Qaeda terror attacks that killed nearly 3,000 Americans on September 11, 2001. The group also supported al-Qaeda, Hamas, and the Taliban.

She is citing independent reporting from Natalie Winters who published her findings on X:

EXCLUSIVE: Abdul El-Sayed’s mother helped process tens of thousands in overseas transfers for an Islamic charity later convicted of secretly funneling $1.375 MILLION into Saddam-era Iraq—and blacklisted over alleged al-Qaeda, Taliban and Hamas ties. 🧵

Suffice to say, it takes a special kind of nth-level hatred for America to want to work for an organization that would give money to al-Qaeda, not just before the 9/11 terror attack, but after it, too, and for the next three years, when al-Qaeda's name stank to high heavens.

RE: Isn’t bin Laden dead?

Yes, but his ideology is very much alive and making inroads in America’s politics.

So is Hitler, so Lenin, so is Stalin, so is Mao, so id Pol Pot.

Even tho Hitler died (pretty sure here) we tried and executed members of his party. We hung Tojo a number of Japanese officers after the war. (Probably should have hung more of them and their soldiers for their profound war crimes.) We continued to try death camp prison guards until pretty recently.

His birth mother supported these efforts "from 1999 through at least 2004". Bin Laden He was still alive then. What should be done to his supporters? To those who continue to support his efforts to destroy the West like El Sayed?
