European Muslim Brotherhood Support for Ground Zero Mosque August 19, 2010 - <http://www.familysecuritymatters.org/authors/id.126/author_detail.asp> The Global Muslim Brotherhood Daily Report Print This <javascript:%20printVersion()> E-mail This <javascript:%20emailVersion()> <javascript:void(0);> http://www.familysecuritymatters.org/images/share.png ShareThis <javascript:void(0);> Comments <http://www.familysecuritymatters.org/publications/comments.asp?id=7104> (0) http://www.familysecuritymatters.org/imgLib/20100818_FIOElogo.jpgThe head of the Federation of Islamic Organizations In Europe (FIOE) has expressed his support for the proposed mosque: Shakib Bin-Makhlouf, president of the Federation of Islamic Organizations in Europe, lauded President Obama's endorsement of the mosque, adding that it could improve strained American-Islamic relations in the post-9/11 era. This may deepen American resentment of Islam, but it could also have a good effect. There is no room for pessimism." Bin-Makhlouf told The Media Line. "Islam has nothing to do with the events that happened on 9/11," Bin-Makhlouf added. "Unfortunately, the media has contributed in tying terrorism to Islam. When a non-Muslim commits an act of terror, no-one referrers to his religion." A <http://www.nefafoundation.org/miscellaneous/FeaturedDocs/nefafioereport1008 .pdf> report on FIOE by the NEFA Foundation describes the organization as follows: The Federation of Islamic Organizations in Europe (FIOE) claims to be an independent organization representing the interests of Muslims in Europe. In reality, the FIOE is an umbrella group that comprises the global Muslim Brotherhood in Europe. Strong links connect FIOE's leadership central institutions and member organizations to the Brotherhood, as well as to Saudi Arabia. Funding for the FIOE is derived largely from Gulf sources, including some of the ruling families of the United Arab Emirates. The FIOE has strong ties to Hamas and Hamas fund-raising organizations, and some FIOE member organizations show evidence of links with Al-Qaida. The FIOE recently opened a headquarters office in Brussels and has had some success in positioning itself as a "dialog partner" for the EU and other important institutions.
