In the new letter, Bachmann questions why Abedin, a top aide to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and the wife of former Rep. Anthony Weiner, was able to receive a security clearance despite having family members that Bachmann believes are connected to the Brotherhood. �I am particularly interested in exactly how, given what we know from the international media about Ms. Abedin�s documented family connections with the extremist Muslim Brotherhood, she was able to avoid being disqualified for a security clearance,� the congresswoman wrote.
As evidence, she pointed to Abedin�s late father, Professor Syed Z. Abedin, and a 2002 Brigham Young University Law Review article about his work. Bachmann points to a passage saying Abedin founded an organization that received the �quiet but active support� of the the former director of the Muslim World League, an international NGO that was tied to the Muslim Brotherhood in Europe in the 1970s through 1990s. So, to connect Abedin to the Muslim Brotherhood, you have to go through her dead father, to the organization he founded, to a man who allegedly supported it, to the organization that man used to lead, to Europe in the 1970s and 1990s, and finally to the Brotherhood.
The next paragraph of the law review article she cites quotes Syed Abedin concluding that the Koran calls for, �multiple ways of life � i.e. religious and cultural plurality among mankind.� Pretty scary Islamo-fascist stuff. It�s also worth nothing that Weiner, Huma Abedin�s husband, is one of the most unquestionably pro-Israeli politicians in America. But Bachmann would have us believe that the security clearance process somehow missed Abedin�s nefarious connections, and thus she knows more than, say, the CIA and FBI, who are involved in the background-check process.
