German security reports about the relationship of the International Brotherhood Organization and the German Lydia Nofal and Nina Mohe, sparked controversy about the major women's role played by female leaders within the group in Egypt and outside it, and how these elements succeeded in providing safe incubators for the organization away from security prosecutions.
Suspicious roles
A recent research paper prepared by the researcher in the affairs of terrorist organizations, "Karsten Frerk," showed that the German activist Lydia Nofel, who participated in the founding of the Islamic Action Group in the Social Democratic Party, played suspicious roles during the last period to allow the Brotherhood to infiltrate the largest German party.
Other reports indicated the great role played by Nina Mohe, a prominent member of the Insan Association as well as the Group of Experts Against Islamophobia, which plays an important role in penetrating German institutions for the benefit of the group through the "Klemm" organization.
Observers say that the Brotherhood organization operates through an international plan that has specific strategic goals, and the intertwining of elements in several countries are active in each country to the extent that the political and security environment permits, while in some other countries it is relieved by the same circumstances.
Observers agree on the importance of the role that the women of the organization play in providing pathways for ideas and funding, as well as foci for the spread of extremist ideology, and also flexibility in transferring information from one group to another, especially since most of the women leaders are not subject to careful security monitoring.
In the same context, an Egyptian security source told "Sky News Arabia" that the investigations that took place during the past years with a number of leaders of the organization showed the seriousness of the role that women play within the group and how it has evolved over the past years, from mere incubators to the organization's ideology. To inculcate ideas in new generations, and their role is limited to education only, to completely new paths.
The source clarifies that after the June 30 revolution in 2013 and the fall of the organization in Egypt and the subsequent decisions of confiscation, prohibition and arrest of the leaders of the organization, the roles of women changed through direct participation in the implementation of terrorist operations and the transfer of funds from outside and inside to the militants, as well as providing safe cover for the militants.
The source clarifies that documents found by the Egyptian authorities at the home of one of the Brotherhood leaders indicated that the women's leaders in the organization undertook the process of restructuring and internal construction in the period since 2014, and the documents monitored communication between Brotherhood leaders abroad and some female cadres who participated in the structuring and financing processes directly. The most prominent of them are the Brotherhood leader Hoda Abdel Moneim, Aisha Al-Shater and Faten Ahmed Ismail.
New organizational roles imposed by the crisis
The Egyptian researcher specializing in terrorism affairs, Sameh Fayez, says that the work plan of the sisters section within the organization relied on two main axes in the period following 2013, the first being their unprecedented participation in organizational entanglements, restructuring and maintaining the organization coherent in light of the successive security strikes against it. .
The second is the human rights file, communication between prisoners and outside parties and the transfer of information aimed at mobilizing international public opinion against the Egyptian state. Likewise, the organization’s women played the most important role in their history, by mediating in the transfer of information and funds to and from abroad in a “satanic” organizational process.
Marginalization is rooted
Fayez clarifies in a statement to "Sky News Arabia" that the organization throughout its history has not left organizational or political spaces for female cadres.
He continued, "Although political work began in 1928, the first time that a female cadre was pushed for the parliamentary elections in Egypt was Jihan Al-Halafawi in 2000 and Makram Al-Daihi in 2005."
He added, "The two incidents did not go unnoticed, but rather caused major organizational divisions to protest the empowerment of women in political action."
The Egyptian researcher believes that the grinding crisis experienced by the organization after its fall in Egypt forced it to push women as an alternative arm in the operations, pointing out that the organization used the women as a human shield in the sit-ins and demonstrations that followed that period, especially in the armed sit-in "Rab'a Al-Adawiya" International support and sympathy.
Fayez affirms that the international organization allowed women to move more freely in Western societies to gain the confidence of peoples and send reassuring messages and indications of their fake respect for women and their desire to empower them, but these cadres played a dangerous role at the human rights and political level in the past period.
The researcher specializing in terrorism affairs added that the Sisters Department played a pivotal role in drafting fabricated reports on the human rights situation in Egypt in coordination with the Muslim Brotherhood, Salma Abdel Ghaffar, the Egyptian file official at the American "Human Rights Watch" organization.
Fayez pointed out that the sisters section is practicing its organizational activity at the present time and has not stopped, because women leaders have more freedom of movement and movement, especially since meetings at the family level take place in homes, and most of them have intermarriage and friendship relations, which makes things easier.
