AKEH, Mehdi. Muslim on who did 9/11.

Muslim on who did 9/11. Mehdi Akef (former Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood Supreme Guide re 9/11) (2011): “There is no Al Qaeda. It’s an American expression. It’s just an ideology, Al Qaeda. This ideology comes from America and their coalitions. When they fight in Iraq and Afghanistan, Al Qaeda thinks it’s a jihad because the fight is against occupation. And it is jihad to fight occupation. And when Americans kill civilians everywhere, it’s a big crime against humanity” (Mehdi Akef quoted in Eric Trager, “Why is the Middle East still in thrall to 9/11 conspiracy theories?”, The New Republic, 3 September 2011: https://newrepublic.com/article/94546/middle-east-radical-conspiracy-theories ).
