Mother of ISIS jihadist convicted in New York terror plot to 'create the next 9/11' runs for public office to create 'safe and welcoming' environments in woke city
UK Daily Mail ^ | 09/09/2026 | Rachel Bowman

The mother of a convicted ISIS terrorist who plotted to 'create the next 9/11' is running for public office in Canada.

Dr Khdiga R Metwally is on the ballot for Halton District School Board Ward 1 and 2 trustee, about 30 miles outside Toronto.

Her son, Abdulrahman El Bahnasawy, is serving a 40-year prison sentence in the United States for plotting an ISIS terrorist attack in New York City during the summer of 2016.

Metwally told the Daily Mail that her son is mentally ill and she 'rejects violence and extremism in all forms.'

'I have never supported any violent act committed by my son or anyone else,' she said.

'My candidacy should be evaluated on my qualifications, my previous experience in education, my plans to serve students and families in Milton, and the strong endorsements I have received from educators, community leaders, and respected members of the community.'

El Bahnasawy, who was 20 at the time, pleaded guilty to terrorism charges and admitted to being inspired to 'create the next 9/11.'

'He planned to detonate bombs in Times Square and the New York City subway system, and to shoot civilians at concert venues,' US Attorney Geoffrey S Berman said at the time.

'Demonstrating his commitment to carry out the attacks, El Bahnasawy pinpointed bomb locations on a map of the subway system, and acquired an array of bomb-making materials.'

El Bahnasawy used encrypted electronic messaging applications to plot with other men to conduct bombings and shootings in heavily populated areas of New York City during the Islamic holy month of Ramadhan in 2016, all in the name of ISIS, according to prosecutors.

W Bush could have stopped this BS, instead he went with the religion of peace lie and stuck us with Roberts.

All over America defense lawyers are sitting bolt upright and saying "I smell an insanity or mental defect retrial excuse. The age of Clancy didn't arrive soon enough but I finally found a scam to get rich."

Saying the words that she personally rejects violence is a ploy to get votes. Part of “taqiyya” in Islam permitted by the Quran, especially to save a life from infidels.

Funny first one in this list of permissible allowances:

While Taqiyya is the main term for life-saving lies, there are other hadith-mentioned cases where lying is allowed, such as:

1) To please a spouse (e.g., saying food tastes good when it doesn’t).

2) In war to mislead the enemy.

3) To reconcile people by saying good things about one party.

Implied in saving a life is a man NOT giving the wrong answer when a woman asks: “Do I look fat in this burka?”

“taqiyya”

Exactly. The ‘West’ is still asleep.

They intend to “obtain the kingdom through flatteries” as it says in the book of Daniel. To get elected to office.

Excellent reference.

Why do I immediately think of the US Senate candidate Ahmad el-Sayed? Because he and Mamdani are precisely what the Bible meant.

Agree, and el-Sayed needs to pretend a little more humility to succeed. Even as bad as Mamdani is at hiding his disdain, Sayed is truly lacking.

Or else they don’t care to hide it anymore, which is what was happening after the Biden installation. Where I believe they thought they had won and nothing could ever be rolled back.

They still need to bind the strongman to succeed. Tying the collective West up in its own reprobate sins, throwing out wicked Macrons, Mark Carneys, Andy Burnhams and others of this same ilk to slowly weave the rope around our legs and arms and necks.

“No man can enter into a strong man’s house and despoil his goods, unless he will first bind the strong man; and then he will despoil his house.” - Mark 3:27

Like Trump said I can see a lot of evil in el-Sayed.

Type that could be a sadistic brutal guard in a POW prison. Eyes without a soul behind them. True of Ro Khanna, too. And Shri and others.
