Re: Muslim Youth
I’ve heard of some accusations interestingly from the Jewish community that MSA’s are funded by the Muslim Brotherhood, and there is wahabbi money being poured into them.
I lucked out - where I went to school, some girls some years before got fed up with MSA policies towards women and the sheer control by wahabbi arab foreign students, and they created their own organization. For women. Which interestingly, all the guys and minorities (shias, other shia subgroups, etc joined). The MSA became essentially non-existent except for a handful of arabs who still went to meetings.
So we never had this wahabbi brainwashing.
By the time other family members got to that university, the MSA had conveniently managed to infiltrate our group, and the organizations were merged. Interestingly, ON PAPER, the name “MSA” carried on, and the hybrid name never took official effect on university records (which the muslims on campus didn’t know about until my sister, the treasurer, figured it out).
When she confronted the arab guys in the group, they told her to either put on a hijab or get out.
No joke.
I wouldn’t be surprised if there is dodgy hands behind the MSA’s in the US. There is a pattern of guys going in normal, and then coming out hard-hearted, intolerant and plain unfriendly.
They get brainwashed. I’ve seen it happen a lot.
