At the French parliament, Abdel Rahim Ali exposes Brotherhood’s role in emergence of extremist organizations

Dr. Abdul Rahim Ali, President of the Center for Middle East Studies in Paris, revealed when extremist organizations emerged in the region, pointing out that the beginning was in 1980 when Kamal Al Sananiri, member of the Guidance Bureau of the Muslim Brotherhood met Palestinian member of the international guidance bureau Abdullah Azzam to get him acquainted with the decision of the Guidance Office to send him to Pakistan to establish an office there to receive young Mujahideen Arabs coming to fight against Russians in Afghanistan.

Ali pointed out that Azzam set up the office, which was later turned into the Mujahideen Services Office in 1984. Azzam also established a database for these young people, which was later used to form al-Qaeda. This came during a lecture by Dr. Abdel Rahim Ali, President of the Center for Middle East Studies in Paris, at the French parliament on the phase of post-Islamic State terrorism, the dangers of financing terrorism exported to Europe, and the role of the Muslim Brotherhood and its international organization in preparing for that phase.
