Well well well. What do we have here?
You know Linda Sarsour– the terrorist-sympathizing horror who pretends to be the world’s best feminist? She’s a Women’s March leader too. In reality, she’s an embarrassment to women, and now we have further proof that she’s the world’s biggest hypocrite.
Sarsour has been accused of enabling the culture of sexual assault in the workplace. According to a report from the Daily Caller, Sarsour completely dismissed the claims of a female staffer who worked under her while she (Sarsour) was the executive director of the Arab American Association. The staffer allegedly went to her and expressed concern over groping and “unwanted touching,” and Sarsour hugged the staffer and launched an investigation into the woman’s claims. HAHAHAHAHA just kidding! Sarsour verbally attacked the woman and called her a liar.
It gets worse.
Allegations of groping and unwanted touching were allegedly brought to Sarsour during her time as executive director of the Arab American Association. In response, Sarsour, a self-proclaimed champion of women, attacked the woman bringing the allegations, often threatening and body-shaming her, these sources alleged. The most serious allegations were dismissed, Asmi Fathelbab, the alleged victim told The Daily Caller, because the accused was a “good Muslim” who was “always at the Mosque.”
Wow. That’s how Linda weighs accusations? If you regularly attend a mosque, you’re probably not guilty and a “good Muslim”? Interesting. How many Islamic terrorists were actually “good Muslims” by Linda’s standards? I’m sure some of them attended mosques in the past. Just saying.
“She oversaw an environment unsafe and abusive to women,” said Fethelbab, a former employee at the Arab American Association. “Women who put [Sarsour] on a pedestal for women’s rights and empowerment deserve to know how she really treats us.”
I believe it. And I’m glad to see that this accuser is using her name. It makes her claims more credible.
Fathelbab is a 37-year-old New York native and was raised in a Muslim household. She was excited in 2009 to begin working at the Arab American Association of New York as a contractor. At the time, Sarsour was the executive director of the organization. Fathelbab worked for Sarsour for almost a year, according to employment documents reviewed and authenticated by TheDC.
Fathelbab claims the Arab American Association was an unsafe workplace where she was allegedly sexually assaulted, body-shamed and intimidated.
Oftentimes, Sarsour was directly involved, according to the ex-staffer’s account.
She said one man who lived in the area, Majed Seif, began stalking her. She said he’d pin her to walls and rub his crotch against her.
“It was disgusting,” she tells The Caller. “I ran the youth program in the building and with that comes bending down and talking to small children. You have no idea what it was like to stand up and feel that behind you. I couldn’t scream because I didn’t want to scare the child in front of me. It left me shaking.”
She told her bosses about it, Sarsour called her a liar.
Fathelbab says she went to leadership at the organization to report the sexual assault. She alleges she was dismissed by Sarsour outright. “She called me a liar because ‘Something like this didn’t happen to women who looked like me,’” Asmi says. “How dare I interrupt her TV news interview in the other room with my ‘lies.’”
It gets worse. Sarsour straight up threatened her.
“She told me he had the right to sue me for false claims,” Asmi recalls, adding that the assaulter allegedly “had the right to be anywhere in the building he wanted.”
Desperate after multiple dismissals by Sarsour, the distraught employee says she went to the president of the board of directors, Ahmed Jaber.
“Jaber told me my stalker was a ‘God-fearing man’ who was ‘always at the Mosque,’ so he wouldn’t do something like that,” Fathelbab claims. “He wanted to make it loud and clear this guy was a good Muslim and I was a bad Muslim for “complaining.”
A furious Sarsour allegedly raged against Fathelbab for continuing to report her sexual assault in the building. According to Fathelbab, her allegations would result in her getting written up for disciplinary action. She told TheDC she was once forced to talk to a detective from the community liaison division about the consequences of making false claims to the authorities.
Isn’t that nice?
Another New York political operative, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, claims that Sarsour was “militant against other women” at the Association. This operative, who has worked for over 12 years with the Arab American Association, says they remember Asmi and witnessed her getting harassed in the building.
“They made it about her weight, saying she was not attractive enough to be harassed and then swept it under the rug,” the source said. “It was Linda Sarsour, Ahmad Jaber and Habib Joudeh who took care of it.” Habib Joudeh is the vice president of the Arab American Association of New York.
The source even identified Fathelbab’s alleged assaulter without prompting, “Majed Seif, the man who lived in the building.”
It all goes back to two things: Liberals being hypocrites and Islam being incompatible with true feminism. In Islam, it’s always the woman’s fault. Women are treated like garbage.
Another insider told the Daily Caller that “Sarsour is only a feminist outwardly.”
“Her interactions toward women in that building were atrocious. She would protect the patriarchy and in return they would promote her,” the insider continued.
Unbelievable. The Daily Caller has a full transcript of Fathelbab’s story. You can read it here.
Sarsour is a disgusting human being, but you already knew that. This is simply confirmation.
