Dr. Pipes

I'm sure you read Andrew McCarthy's great article in NRO about Huma Abedin and her sordid family.

I spent some time reading about her family and their twists and turns and you must pardon me their BS over the years including her late father (and if you check his past history it is as confusing as it can get and I suspect that he was stretching the truth on many occasions and yes I came across the claim that her late father back in the 1970's described himself as an expert on Iran! which he is not and notice that this was the time of hostage taking in Iran and I suspect that he made things up so naive Washington would seek his help and as for the time he spent in Saudi Arabia it is unclear what he really did there) and her brother who is a so called Muslim "scholar" and her mother who seems to be no where but every where and on top of all of this her marraige to Anthony Wiener and what was most amazing to me how can the daughter of a big shot in the Muslim Brotherhood marry a Jew? Unless Weiner converted to Islam! But again this seems to be the life of Huma drama and more drama

The question is how did she get her security clearance to work in such a sensitive position with such murky family history I just ownder and from reading the presss in Egypt it seems that many Copts and liberals were able to link Huma with the fact that Mrs Clinton is being told by her that the Muslim brotherhood are a bunch of great guys and that democracy will not be very far behind and this is why Copts refused to meet with Mrs. Clinton

Dr. Pipes it would be great to see you updating this never ending drama of Huma Abedin
