  • Islamism, Fascism and Terrorism (Part 1)
    Home / Essential Reading / Islamism, fascism and terrorism (Part 1) ISLAMISM, FASCISM AND TERRORISM (PART 1) By Marc Erikson, Asia Times [Editor's note: As distinct from the world religion of Islam, Islamism - as in part contextually defined below - is a political ideology that adherents would apply to contemporary governance and politics, and which they propagate through political and social activism.] On November 7, 2001, on the request of the US government, the Swiss Federal Prosecutor's Office froze the bank accounts of Nada Management, a Lugano-based financial services and consulting firm, and ordered a search and seizure raid on the firm's offices. Police pulled in several of the company's principals for questioning. Nada Management, part of the international al-Taqwa ("fear of God") group, is accused by US Treasury Department investigators of having acted for years as advisers and a funding conduit for Osama bin Laden's al-Qaeda. Among those interrogated by police was a certain Albert Friedrich Armand (aka Ahmed) Huber, 74, a Swiss convert to Islam and retired journalist who sits on the Nada board of directors. Nothing too unusual perhaps, except for the fact that Huber is also a high-profile neo-Nazi who tirelessly travels the far-right circuit in Europe and the United States. He sees himself as a mediator between radical Islam and what he calls the New Right. Since September 11, a picture of Osama bin Laden hangs next to one of Adolf Hitler on the wall of his study in Muri just outside the Swiss capital of Bern.

First there were staccato bursts of fire from Iraqi guerrillas on the other side of the road. Then came the whoosh of RPG launchers. American soldiers on their Humvees immediately fired back with shuddering machine guns and M-16s. We rapidly drove off the road on to a piece of waste ground along with several other cars. We jumped out of the doors and lay on the ground. Bassil al- Kaissi, our driver, shouted to other Iraqis THE REVISIONIST CLARION / 5 / May 2004 who had also taken cover: "Take off your keffiyehs [Arab head dresses] or the Americans will think you are mujahedin and kill you."

Yet it may happen that you will hate a thing which is better for you; and it may happen that you will love a thing which is worse for you. God knows and you know not. —K. 2:216 vi ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS Al Taqwa Bank by Jason Jonathan Vaught Master of Science in Homeland Security San Diego State University, 2011 This study examines the banking activities of Al Taqwa Bank and investigates the reasons why the United States government, the United Nations and the European Union concluded that it was a major financier of terrorist organizations after the events of September 11th. This study analyzes literature, interviews and government documents in order to portray accurately the events and actions that this bank and its affiliate members undertook to fund terrorism. This study also covers the philosophy that lies beneath the creation of Al Taqwa Bank, including the integration of Nazi ideals with that of Arab nationalism after the defeat of Nazi Germany in World War II. It considers not only how this helped Al Taqwa come into fruition, but also the ramifications this has had on the international community in the past and may have in the future.

Since the Palestine conflict’s start, the Arab national movement led by Amin al-Husseini had sought to involve other Arab and Islamic actors to add weight to their cause. Parallelly, it developed an infrastructure to influence Western public opinion. The resultant transnational advocacy network enjoyed the support of Arab states, which competed over influence on Palestine and numerous non-Arab anti-Zionist activists motivated by a diverse array of ideologies.

  • Western Europe
    Western Europe Great Britain National Affairs I-,N JANUARY, Peter Mandelson, Prime Minister Tony Blair's friend and political mentor, resigned for the second time, again because he concealed his dealings with a wealthy man. Despite predictions of trouble for a Labor government facing an imminent election, the party and the government emerged virtually unscathed. Chancellor Gordon Brown's budget, presented in March, which pro- posed modest tax cuts and increased spending for such purposes as the National Health Service, public transportation, and education, created a favorable atmosphere: the chancellor earned higher approval ratings than any of his postwar predecessors, and half the electorate thought Labor the party most able to cope with economic difficulties (the opposition Conservatives scored only 31 percent on the economy). The general election, held in May, confimed this assessment. Labor once again won overwhelmingly, with 413 seats against 166 for the Con- servatives and 52 for the Liberal Democrats. Despite its victory, Labor was not as popular as the bare election results suggested, as the two lead- ing opposition parties attracted 50 percent of the votes cast, as against 40.8 percent for Labor. Only the vagaries of the voting system secured Labor its large overall majority of seats. An immediate result of the elec- tion was the resignation of Tory leader William Hague, precipitating an election for new party leadership that brought the relatively unknown Iain Duncan Smith to office as head of the opposition. At the end of the year neither the new Conservative leader nor his shadow cabinet had made much of an impact.
