MIM: Egyptian born hijabi Dalia Ziada a self proclaimed 'devout Muslim' and 'former hater of Jews' is on the payroll of the Institute For The Study Of Global Antisemitism Policy (ISGAP) and operatives under the title of 'Research Fellow and DC Coordinator'. Ziada's is a fan girl of Tareq Al Suwaidan who was the Fuhrer of the Muslim Brotherhood in Kuwait. He was stripped of his Kuwaiti citizenship and expelled for being a threat to their national security in 2025!

Al -Suwaidan who spent nearly 2 decades in the United States travels the Islamic world, giving courses to young Muslims on how to wage 'Media Jihad' by starting their own communication outlets and controlling and deseminating the global jihadist cause.

Waging media jihad aka 'jihad of the tonque and pen' is precisely what Dalia Ziada who extolled Al-Suwaidan as 'The wizard of my life" is doing in the United States. Ziada also worked for his Al-Suwaidan's dawah enterprise in Kuwait and considers him to be a 'motivational speaker'. Ziada's jihadi mentor also wrote an 'The Illustrated Encyclopedia Of The Jews"

Re Tarek Al Suwaidan:

"At a meeting of the Islamic Association of Palestine in Chicago in 2000 Al-Suwiadan said "Palestine will not be liberated but through Jihad. Nothing can be achieved without sacrificing blood. The Jews will meet their end at our hands." He was subsequently banned from the US.[30

Al-Suwaidan used his Twitter account to promote what he calls electronic Jihad. (like the Electronic Intifada website does)

On 17 January 2012, Al Suwaidan tweeted: "I see the need in uniting the efforts of the hackers within the electronic jihad project against the Zionist enemy, and it is an effective and important jihad, and its reward is great – Allah willing." Al-Suwaidan: "I Strongly Encourage Young People To Undertake Electronic Jihad... I View This As Better Than 20 Jihad Operations."

In a 4 June 2011 interview on AlQuds TV, Al-Suwaidan said: "The other day, I was asking myself: Why shouldn't I personally go on jihad? First of all, my body cannot tolerate it. Secondly, is what I am doing any less important than jihad?

I would like us all to feel that we are in the same trench. There is such a thing as media jihad, political jihad, and a form of jihad that I strongly encourage young people to undertake – electronic jihad.

Some of our youth are extremely clever. I hope that a group of hackers will get together, and will wage resistance over the Internet, targeting Israeli and Zionist sites and destroying them electronically."[43]

Introduction:

This is my first time to have a blog. It is really interesting to find someplace to express yourself and to reveal yourself to the world. When I was asked about the title of the blog, I found great difficulty to give a quick answer. However, I decided finally to name my blog after my name. I do not want to limit my self to one area of interest.I have several interests in life. I believe that life is short; too short. Thus, one must utilize every moment in his/her life. Before all, I am a human; an independent being. I also play several roles. My ultimate interest is to please Allah and his prophet Muhammad with all I am doing in my own life regardless how tiny this thing is.

Me (Dalia Ziada):

First of all, I am a human and I believe that I worth a better life to live. So, I can refer to myself as "the satisfied ambitious human". I have graduated from the faculty of English Language and Literature, Ain Shams university four years ago (2002). Right now, I work as an English / Arabic translator for a reputable human rights organization located in Egypt. At the main time, I manage my own "Softcopy Translation Center" which provides translation services to the whole world through the web (targama.org) I am highly interested in Movie Script Writing. I wrote two movies in Arabic; I found no producer though! Anyway, I will try till the end of my life.

My Family:

I am an Egyptian 24-years old younglady. I live with my small family in Cairo. My family consists of four members in addition to me: my mother, two brothers and one sister. My father is DEAD. He was a Lt.Cl. Engineer in the Egyptian army before his death. My mother is an Arabic language teacher and the headmistress of an Egyptian school. My brother Mohamed graduated from Tourism Institute; Egyptology major, two years ago. He is working in the field of tourism now. My brother Ahmed is still an undergraduate student of Mechanical Engineering. My sister Mai is studying computer science in a reputable computer institute in Egypt. These four persons are the pillars of my life. I have never loved someone as much as I love them.

Islam:

I am a Muslim. I was born as a Muslim, I live as a believer and will die Inshaallah as a Faithful Muslim. I love prophet Muhammad more than I love my family and even more than I love myself. Islam promotion is one of my main interests. However, I did not choose the correct channels wherein I can pour my ideas about Islam. Yet, I have started some small steps towards this noble goal. Firstly, I created a forum called "Cultures Forum" affiliated to Dr. Tareq Al-Suwaidan forum. This forum is in English language and is addressed to both Muslims and non-Muslims. It is the place where anyone can discuss any topic about Islam or any other religion compared to Islam. Secondly, I joined "Muslim Writers Society". This place is where I publish my own articles about Islam. All I seek from all this is verily to please Almighty Allah.

Human Rights:

I am a human rights activist. I believe that everyone has the right to live as a human. I am particularly interested in the issue of Women's Rights and the freedom of expression. Woman in the whole world is still limited to some aweful rules which must be violated. I think and beleive that I can violate such restrictions one day. Freedom of Expression is an inherited right which must not be rendered by those who declare themselves as human beings for any reason whatsoever. Freedom of speech and expression is a gift from Allah. Human beings are the only creatures who can talk.

That is all about me. So it was so difficult to limit my blog to a specified area. I will discuss all my interests here, later Inshaallah.

Thanks God. I think I am going to be a famous person or may be I becme a famous person already. Today I found a whole article talking about me in Almasry Alyoum daily newspaper. The article is written by the famous and beautiful writer; Sherin Abuel Naga. I read it this morning and I could not help telling you about. I am extremely happy.
The link is: http://www.almasry-alyoum.com/article.aspx?ArticleID=24002

Sherin Abuel Naga discussed my winning essay in HAMSA competetion last month. She talked about the brilliancy of handling Arab women issue in such a simple way. I met Sherin few month ago at Dar Merit Publishing House. She was extremely beautiful at that day and I praised her beauty. There were Ahmed Fouad Negm the famous poet setting with me at Dar Merit. He praised her beauty too :)

Almasry Alyoum is an independent newspaper known for its dare situations against state authority and regime in Egypt. It is a good idea to have my work discussed in such paper rather than any other semi-official paper.

Allah is great. I love yo Allah. Thank you Allah for making my dreams getting real.

Wait for me, Glob.
I am coming with much hope.
I am coming with no fear.
I am coming to remove every single tear.

Thanks God, as you always support me even if I was so stupid not to seek your help. Thanks Almighty and merciful God.

Dalia Ziada writes to Muslim Writers Society (MWS)

Believe it or not! I became a renowned writer and member of Muslim Writers Society. I joined the Society about two months ago. I choose one of my peices to be the very first thing to publish on their website. Publishing there is not that easy. MWS has a panel of judges who read articles then decide to publish them or not. Thanks God, my article was chosen and published long time ago and I did not realize this before now. I am so happy :)

This is how Muslim Writers Society introduce itself to the people:

The World Muslim Writers Society and Foundation is an organization and forum where Muslim writers can exchange ideas, help each other grow as writers, express their views, and ultimately get their works published on our web site and, insha'Allah, in a future publication. It is a society because we are a group of Muslims united for the purpose of promoting intellectual expression and Islamic awareness. It is a foundation because it is the base from which Muslim writers can draw their strength and find support in good times and bad times.

The Society is affiliated to One Ummah Network which is interested in uniting Muslims all over the world.

My article published on MWS is one of the articles published on this blog. It is "Muslim = an ambitiously satisfied human". Do you remember it? If not go down this page to view it. The article is published under my name Dalia Ziada. However, it is written as one word like this "daliaziada". Anyway, it is still my name and it is still me the author of the article.

Changing Hearts and Minds: An Interview with Hillel Teach-In Tour Educator Dalia Ziada

Author

Hillel International

Date April 3, 2025

Responding to the unprecedented rise in global antisemitism and campus antisemitism following the October 7 attacks on Israel, Hillel International organized the Hillel Teach-In Tour, a program that brings experts, educators, and thought leaders to college campuses around the United States. Speakers include U.S. Ambassador and Georgetown University professor Dennis Ross, former Palestinian negotiator Ghaith al-Omari, and Egyptian writer and political analyst Dalia Ziada. Since the program's inception in 2023, more than 30 thousand students and 150 campuses have participated in a Teach-In session.

To learn more about what it's like to speak with students across the country as part of the Teach-In Tour, Hillel caught up with one of its many participating experts: award-winning writer, political analyst, and human rights activist Dalia Ziada. Check out her interview below.

Editor's note: In sharing her experiences, Dalia references the actions of Hamas, as well as past terror attacks and violence. Please read with care.

Hillel International: By the end of this academic year, you will have visited 45 campuses with the Hillel Teach-In Tour which is incredible! How did you come to be involved with the Hillel Teach-In Tour?

Dalia Ziada: It's unbelievable, actually! I didn't expect in one year to visit that number of campuses, but it's been a wonderful experience.

You know, I was forced to leave Egypt in 2023 after I publicly condemned Hamas. On my way to the United States, I really thought that I had left all the bad guys behind — all the extremists, the people trying to manipulate the truth, who are supporting Hamas. So it was a shock to see that their new battlefield was actually American college campuses, where young people are being targeted so aggressively.

These are Americans who don't necessarily have an Islamic or Arab background, but they're being manipulated to support the rhetoric or narratives that groups like Hamas want them to support. So with my background, I felt like I could have a role in countering that. I started out on my own, visiting some campuses and doing talks, and that was when Hillel reached out to me and said, "We want to amplify what you're doing. We want to help you keep doing it."

Being part of this program has let me visit so many more campuses than I could have on my own, and it's been amazing in so many ways. Nothing is as rewarding as the ability to affect the hearts and minds of young people, to help them see the world from a different perspective.

Hillel: In addition to being an educator and activist, you're a political analyst, specializing in governance, geopolitics, and defense policy in the Middle East. How did you originally get involved in this kind of work?

Dalia: I grew up in a very conservative environment in Egypt, one that was very hostile to Israel. I was 18 years old at the time of the Second Intifada in Gaza. I was an undergraduate student, and I remember my campus in Cairo being full of protests. There was a lot of misinformation about Israel, about the Jewish people, and about Judaism in general, so it was natural for me to join those protests.

My perspective changed when the people organizing the protests, who I later learned were the Muslim Brotherhood, started burning flags — first the Israeli flag, then the American flag, and finally, the Egyptian flag. And it was really shocking to me, because at that moment, I just felt that those couldn't be good people claiming that they were standing for a humanitarian cause while also doing something as bad as burning my flag. For me, it was this moment of, "Something's wrong here."

That was the moment I got out of the ideological box. I took a step back, and I decided to educate myself about the Islamists, about Judaism, about Israel, about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, and about the geopolitics of the Middle East.

Since then, it has become my passion to use education to change the conversation. I became an advocate of Muslim-Jewish dialogue, Arab-Israeli dialogue, and fighting against radical Islamists. I'm glad now that I'm able to bring that same opportunity of change to the young people who come to my lecture — to give them that same experience of cognitive dissonance that makes them ask questions about what they're hearing and what they're dealing with.

Hillel: You've been doing these visits as part of the Teach-In Tour since last spring. Has anything changed in the way students or campuses have approached your lectures?

Dalia: At the beginning, there was definitely some opposition — this was the time when the encampments were really at their height, and things were often very tense. People would try to interrupt my activities, interrupt the lectures, even harass the students who attended. But we insisted on continuing, and I'm so grateful to Hillel for not giving up, even in the midst of all that harassment and terrorizing.

I think a real turning point came in the last few months, especially after the ceasefire began. The propaganda theater that Hamas created in returning the hostages, especially, you know, the bodies of the Bibas family, the mother and her children — I think even the more radicalized students really started to see Hamas in a different way. It created that cognitive dissonance in the minds of those students who were supporting Hamas, thinking they were freedom fighters, and those students actually started coming to my lectures seeking the truth or at least an answer to their moral dilemmas.

Hillel: Are there moments from any of your visits that really stand out to you?

Dalia: Definitely. I remember having one conversation with a student who had been a member of Students for Justice in Palestine. He came up to me and said he's been listening and thinking, and he's changed his mind about a number of things. He said he isn't exactly sure where to go from here, but he knows something wrong is happening in his movement, and he came to listen to me because he was curious to hear something different from what was being said to him, and it changed things for him.

Another moment that stood out was when two Egyptian students came to one of my lectures. Based on my experience with other Egyptian and Arab students who had come, I was expecting them to be protestors, and I started preparing for trouble. But it turned out that they actually come to Hillel regularly. They told me that with the food, the culture, even the type of students, it's a place where they feel closest to home. And even though they're treated badly by other Arab students for that connection, they still keep going.

One of the most meaningful experiences I had was immediately after that horrible spectacle Hamas made of the Bibas family. I was visiting campuses and speaking to students about the importance of peace and the potential for change, and while I was speaking, they were crying. And I don't think I will ever forget it — the way Jewish students here in the United States were impacted. I think part of me wondered whether these students, who live so far away from what's happening, should care. But when I saw the tears in their eyes and the pain they were experiencing, it made me so grateful that I could be there in that difficult moment to give a message of hope and solidarity to those students, and to let them know that I see this as my fight, too.

Hillel: What do you hope students — and anyone else who reads this article — will take away from your perspective and experiences?

Dalia: I hope that they know that there are Arabs who want peace with Israel, and that Hamas and other extremist groups don't speak for all of us. We have this fight in common. And I would also encourage people to look outside of their own experiences, and learn from people who are different from them, even if it makes you uncomfortable. Hearing other perspectives, challenging what we're taught, and being willing to be curious — it will make all the difference in helping you learn and grow.

HILLEL TEACH IN TOUR

"Following the Hamas terrorist attack on Israel, the unprecedented rise in antisemitism around the world, and the polarizing discourse on campus and on social media, educational programming about the history of Israel and the current conflict is more important than ever before.

The Hillel Teach-In Tour featured a diverse group of experts, educators, and thought leaders offering varying perspectives on the conflict, including U.S. Ambassador and Georgetown professor Dennis Ross, former Palestinian negotiator Ghaith al-Omari, and former U.S. State Department senior advisor and Johns Hopkins professor David Makovsky.

Hillel Statement in Support of Racial Justice

Our tradition teaches us that we may not "stand idly by the blood of our neighbors." Now is the moment for action; standing idly by will not suffice.

We cannot see the murder of George Floyd and stand indifferent to his cries, nor to that of so many Black Americans and people of color. For too long, we have seen the destructive consequences of racism — on college campuses, in our cities, and in our own communities. As a people that has known and fought oppression for generations, we have an obligation to speak out and take action whenever people are being targeted for who they are or what they believe. We speak out today because Black Americans continue to endure systemic racism and police brutality in our world and because we believe Black lives matter.
