Brotherhood launches new campaign to raise funds for its dubious activities in Europe
Recent years have witnessed a rise in hate crimes in the West, prompting some countries to issue warnings against 'Islamophobia'.
Western states are working hard to
prevent these crimes. However, there apparently are hidden hands that feed and
support the continuation of hostility against Muslims.
Some organizations also take
advantage of donations and use them in the creation of organizations that
ostensibly combat Islamophobia, but in reality offer funding for associations
affiliated with the Muslim Brotherhood in Europe.
The European Commission has adopted
a Muslim Brotherhood campaign called 'We Can'.
The aim of the campaign, the group
says, is to combat hate speech on the Internet and social media platforms.
It has received funding from the
European Union, specifically from the Rights, Equality and Citizenship Program.
A workshop was organized within the campaign
and in cooperation with the Forum of European Muslim Youth and Student
Organizations, an affiliate of the Brotherhood.
Thirty-one European legislators had
previously submitted questions to European Commission about relations between
European institutions and the Muslim Brotherhood.
The European Parliament sent a memo
last September to the commission, asking it to clarify close relations between
European institutions and the Brotherhood, even though this organization calls
for suicide attacks, and adopts an approach that calls for violence and hatred.
Several European countries are
expected to issue new legislation to bridge the gaps between hate crime laws
and terrorism in relation to the activities of political Islam and extremist
groups during 2022.
This will come in conjunction with
the comprehensive European strategy to combat terrorism and extremism.
New networks
The Muslim Brotherhood follows
complex procedures to obscure its sources of funding.
This is also how the group manages
its financial transactions.
It succeeded in evade official
scrutiny, using these procedures.
It employed its extensive historical
experience in secret work and its frequent relations with various governments
in doing this.
Western governments have been
following the size of Brotherhood funds for some time now.
