Tariq Ramadan named professor at US university |
2004-01-29 |
From JihadWatch France’s Nouvel Observateur (thanks to Joyce) is reporting that controversial European Muslim scholar Tariq Ramadan’s move to the United States may be related to talks between Washington and the Muslim Brotherhood. Here is my rough-and-ready translation of the French article: Surprise: Tariq Ramadan, part-time lecturer at the University of Freiburg in Switzerland, is on his way to the United States. Next September, he will be named a professor at the University of Notre Dame in South Bend, Indiana. This arrangement comes after multiple offers made to him by many American universities for several months, in particular the University of Chicago. In April, he will also direct several conferences in California, and according to him, will be invited to the U.S. State Department, which seems interested in him more and more. |

#5 Ok, Ramadan is quite a public figure around here, a real media darling, mostly because he's contreversial, and speak very well, though his stardom seems to have waned a little bit. Hey, I've just finished a book that was written especially against him! The new 'Le point' weekly, I think, investigated about him, and found some interesting stuff (hadn't bought it yet), but here are some already known factors : He's the grand son of Hassan al Bana, the founder of the muslim brother, the son of a quasi-pakistani minister and a MB bigshot; he seems to be at least the mouthpiece of the brotherhood in Europa (he denies it, but apparently, according to 'Le point', he's one of its strategists, bought to Geneva to 'islamize Europa'); he's quite fundamentalist, but also a specialist of the double speech; he's VERY popular among the european muslims, and says 'Europa is the future of islam'; his brother, Hani, is even more contreversial, as he's linked to Ahmed Huber, a swiss nazi converted to islam that animates the 'third way', an ideological mvt aiming at bringing the far right and islamists together, and who also headed the Al Taqwa Management society which has been tied to AQ (Hani has been linked to AQ also, and the spanish judge Garzon was interested in Tarik's link with an AQ figure in Spain); the two brothers were persona non grata in France until 2001, as they were seen as potentially dangerous for the state (the fact that this was reversed points the appeasement policy of Chirac & co). He's an islamic heavyweight, he may be not a terrorist, but he's traveling along the same road; he's very bad news for you (but good riddance for us). |

#4 Is it better to have this guy close where he can be watched and his communications to underlings monitored? Might be some method to this madness. |

#1 American dominance over Europe is complete. With the emerging popularity of Michael Moore in Europe, Americans are now set to dominate Europe's vast market for America-bashing punditry. We are now even moving in on their stronghold in the field of Terrorist Apology. In addition to top professionals, experts researchers, students and professors; U.S. companies and Universities have the cash and the the status to lure Europe's leading Islamic |
