Adam Hamawy:  Love or Desire?


Adam Hamawy.  There really should be no place for him to represent the interests of our Republic.  The acoustics are bad regarding the story.  And the tiny tremors of this news reveal a different man than the one who presents to the voters.

Love or desire?  Does he love America?  Or does he desire it  become an Islamic Caliphate - you know that unworkable form of governance which is pock-marked with a lack of critical elements for societal health and homeostasis?  I believe he has desire.  And while love is about emotion, desire travels along lanes of control.  Islam - really is about totalitarian and autocratic control which rages against human liberty.

Frightening enough: Adam Hamawy worked for an Al Qaeda front.  He knew.  He knew what he was involved in - without doubt.   Time and distance do not erase his history of support and activism for a terror network which did not care in the least when 200 individuals leapt to their deaths from the Twin Towers; a hate-hub which did not give it a second thought to kill men, women, and children; and a malignant human blight which thought it appropriate to leave staffers from the Pentagon to deal with their severe burns in the aftermath of the cluster.

A quick look back into my journalism past:

I have been seated across tables from individuals for whom I had a decent level of respect on an intellectual level, and certainly feelings of kindness regarding what it means to be an a Muslim in America.  But I have also seen the aforementioned not only remain dried-eyed, but defiant when coaxing the topic of 9/11.   Hardened features, when asking for their opinions. Unrelenting regarding the righteousness and piety of OBL.   I have had a conversation with both a woman and an unrelated man who called Osama bin Laden a "freedom fighter" - even after 9/11.

Desire.

Ahhh.  You love living in America and experiencing everything attached to the benefits of residing in our Republic.

But admit it.  You do not have love.  You have desire.  There is a big difference.  And I try to remember that small fact when assessing any Muslim who runs for office.  It is important that we carefully consider this as an election issue, no differently than our preference for a Republican, Democratic, or any other candidate.

Do they love America?  Or is it... desire.

I hope that Mr. Hamawy loses his election bid.

Or... is it desire?  smile

Charlie Kirk Marcus Aurelius "Meditations" would not exist if he had been assassinated for his thoughts at age thirty-one. I would have never read Alexander Solzhenitsyn's "Gulag Archipelago" if he had been assassinated for his political thoughts at thirty-one years of age. Winston Churchill would have never written "Hinge of Fate" (one of my favorite selections) had he been assassinated at thirty-one years of age. Ernest Hemingway was fifty-three years old when "The Old Man and the Sea" was published. Leon Uris was thirty-four years old when his novel "Exodus" was published. The average age of the delegates at the 1787 Constitutional Convention was forty-two.  Benjamin Franklin was 81 years of age at this time. The famous Persian poet Ferdowsi began writing "Shahnameh" when he was 37 years old and did not complete it until he was about seventy years of age.  This would be a tremendous loss not to have access to his though...

Mohamed Elhassan He is powerful, made up of imperceptible layers.  He was only in his mid-teens when he first heeded the call to political action traveling to the Republic Palace of President Jafar Nimeiri seeking justice for his family. He is a well-respected Sufi.  In June,  he was awarded a Masters Degree in Islamic Studies from Hamad Bin Khalifa University (Qatar).  A recognized leader of the Kwahla tribe - with 16 million members.   Fast forward to 2010 and 2015 when he ran for President of the Sudan.  In 2015, it was my privilege to serve in a minor advisory role.  In recent years, he has given an enviable one hundred interviews with Al Jazeera Mobasha (life).   His name is Mohamed Elhassan.  I merely call him "friend". Mohamed Elhassan is president of the Sudanese Gathering Accord.  He is a man who knows his business, takes care of his business, and more importantly, takes care of his people. Less than a month ago he tra...

State of the Union:  Live Blogging Tammy and Blackfoot will begin live blogging shortly.  Grab your favorite drink and your BINGO cards and get ready to settle in for two hours of our POTUS speaking at SOTU.  We hope to keep this fun! https://opinionbytammy.blogspot.com/2026/02/state-of-union-bingo-cards.html __________________ Here we go, gang! "Gang" in the friendly family way, not in the Tren de Aragua way. President Trump and Mrs. Trump have left the White House and are on their way to the Capitol. I'm sure these past few days have been chock full of leafing through journals and diaries, and holding meetings with the inner circle for messaging strategies. Regardless of how much input his team gives him, we can always rely on our POTUS to not mince words, to lay the facts on the table and give us straight talk. Recently saw Newsom talking about Trump being an actor, and that he's a different person in different situations. Once again, Gavin is projecting his weakne...
