Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

Tariq Ramadan: Too Devilishly Attractive For His Own Good

Jun 12, 2018 9:24 am By Hugh Fitzgerald

The lawyers for Tariq Ramadan, the “towering intellect” and “foremost Islamic scholar,” recently won a lone victory: the judges considering the accusations against him by the woman known as “Marie,” whose real name is Mounia Barrouj. On June 5, the French judges handling Ramadan’s case dismissed the charges made by “Marie.”

As I wrote at that time, this has led to much mafficking by Ramadan’s supporters. They think their hero, unjustly persecuted by the French justice system because he is a Muslim, is at last seeing justice done, and they look forward to his being completely exonerated. Apparently these judges, described by Ramadan’s loyalists for so long as “unfair” and “biased,” have suddenly became “fair” and “unbiased.”

What made the judges dismiss the accusations by “Marie”?

First, “Marie” was no innocent, but an ex-escort girl, that is, a call girl, who had already been involved in a famous sex scandal in France involving special “evenings” — at such sites as the Hotel Carlton in Lille (l’ affaire du Carlton de Lille) — where such notables as Dominique Strauss-Kahn, former director of the IMF, enjoyed the favors of high-end prostitutes. There is no hint of any such background in the lives of any of Ramadan’s other accusers.

Second, “Marie” — her real name is Mounia Barrouj — claimed to have been raped by Ramadan in France, London, and Brussels nine times, over sixteen months between 2013 and 2014. Both Henda Ayari and “Christelle” claimed to have been raped only once. The judges obviously felt that if “Marie” kept coming back to Ramadan eight times after her initial “rape,” that made more plausible Ramadan’s contention that their relationship was not forced by him, but mutually agreed on. He who had claimed a few months ago never to have engaged in adultery recently changed his story, and before the judges he admitted that his encounters with “Marie” were sexual, and involved mild (!) S and M. These “sexual games,” as Ramadan and his lawyers called this sordidness, were — they claimed — consensual. Why would “Marie” keep agreeing to meet with Ramadan if she had been previously raped by him, against her will, again and again?

Third, Ramadan’s lawyers introduced into evidence 300 videos and a thousand photos sent by “Marie” (Mounia Rabbouj), with sexual content, that support Ramadan’s contention that their meetings, however violent, were consensual. On one of the videos, “Marie” can be heard pleading with Ramadan, saying “My love, I love you very much” (“Mon amour, je t’aime fort”). That message was sent by “Marie’’ on May 17, 2013; she claimed that she had been raped by Ramadan the night before. Isn’t it possible that  she had been smitten with Ramadan–flattered that that “towering intellect’’ took what seemed to be a real interest in her, and so she willingly submitted to his sexual violence. Isn’t it plausible that once “Marie” learned of all the others Ramadan was accused of sexually violating, in France, Belgium, the U.S. and Switzerland, she became infuriated at this evidence of Ramadan’s “betrayal” of her, and decided to press her own charges of rape for what may well have been “consensual” encounters?

But there was one new detail that all but one of the press accounts initially left out. Having insisted ever since his first accuser, Henda Ayari, came forward last October, Tariq Ramadan has insisted that he never committed adultery. Now, all of a sudden, at the hearing about “Marie” on June 5, he not only admitted to a long sexual relationship with her (with just a tad of S. and M., nothing to write home about), but also to having had five separate adulterous long-running liaisons. These were apparently with women other than those who’ve accused him so far of rape in France, Henda Ayari and “Christelle,” as well two others — a woman in Belgium and another in the United States — the state of whose cases against Ramadan is not known.

That’s quite a lot to have simply forgotten, and then all of a sudden to have remembered. But with Tariq Ramadan, now applying his “towering intellect” not to the ethics of Islam, but to coming up with stories to save himself from 15-20 years in prison, anything is possible. Perhaps he will, at his next hearing, suddenly recall that there was rape, alright, involving Ayari and “Christelle,” but it was their assaulting him, not the other way round.

After all, he’s carefully set the stage for this, as a report in Morocco World News reveals:

According to France Inter, which received access to his statements, the Islamic Scholar asserted that he is the one who has been harassed.

When questioned by the investigating judges on Tuesday, Ramadan claimed that women are the ones “who are coming to get me.”

“I go to Le Bourget [French commune] for a conference, and the police must take three women out of the bathroom because I come in.” He explained that he was “not only solicited as an intellectual, but also as a man,” as much by women as by men.

He has to fight them off, you see. Thank god the police were there on that occasion to remove three would-be female rapists from the bathroom. But think of all the other times when Ramadan has had to fight them off alone.

Yes, Tariq Ramadan has his troubles with women, but it’s not his fault. He was named by Time magazine in 2000 as one of the seven religious innovators of the 21st century, and in 2004 as one of the 100 most influential people in the world. Not to be outdone, Foreign Policy magazine named him in 2005, 2006, 2008-2010, 2012-2015 as one of the top 100 most influential thinkers — a Global Thinker — in the world. But he is also devilishly handsome — just ask all those women forcing him to do terrible things to them in hotel rooms. He can’t help it — he’s sex on a stick.

After this transparent attempt to bring down Europe’s most famous Muslim thinker finally fails, as it must if there is any justice in this world, Tariq Ramadan will surely wish for women to at long last leave him alone. It’s a wish that, given the piquant details about him that we have now learned, may well be granted.

    When westerners rape it is a crime, when muslims rape it is a religious duty. What is wrong with all you islamophobes. Let muslims practice their religion in peace and so if there are a few sacrifices to be made of young girls, and sometimes young boys, do not stand in the way of their duty to their god allah. After all we respect all religions do we not; even the ones that are pure evil.

      It appears that in Scandinavia the “Welcome Refugees” movements primarily are ‘manned’ with sexhungry
      middle aged single women. They see sexual harassment as a fringe benefit for all their voluntary efforts.
      God bless these chickenbrained simpletons, they know nothing better.

        Jun 12, 2018 at 2:03 pm

        dan christensen – Really!!! So you think that being sexually harassed and raped is a fringe benefit????? Your sick comment shows a lack of understanding as to how horrible sexually harassment and rape is. Are you a muslim by change, that is the only way your sick comment makes any sense. Get lost and take your hateful misogyny with you. And before you come back with “well the government is feminist”, the president is male as is 52% of the Swedish government. Now I am really angry, wow!!!!

        • Rufluc says

          Jun 12, 2018 at 6:00 pm

          Sue, I think what Dan is saying is very tongue in cheek. It is a fact that some middle aged women in Sweden, who have been pro refugee, and who have also volunteered to help out where they are concerned, have turned out to be women with an alternative sexual motive! With this in mind Dan is suggesting that any sexual move by the refugees on these women would on the surface be seen as sexual harassment but in truth would be seen as a welcomed ‘fringe benefit’ by the women instead.

        • Susan B is getting really mad@# says

          Jun 12, 2018 at 7:37 pm

          This brings “blame the victim” to a whole new level. So when many Swedish girls and women are raped, very violently I might add, this was a “fringe benefit”. I am sure you think that what a female wears is also asking for it, I guess females that drink are also asking for it. I guess that if females are out at night without a male escort, they are also asking for. I am sure this “tongue in cheek” comment must be an inside joke I don’t get it.

          A big welcome to our time travelers dan christensen and Rufluc, all the way from the 1950s when it was the rape victim on trial. You will be pleased to know that Ibrahim is in your corner on this one, read his comment above. Gentlemen you have found a new friend. In fact islamic law agrees with you as well, it is always the women/girls fault for the crime of getting raped.

          Seriously, because some women were naive and tried to help refugees that unbeknownst to them were monsters, they deserved it? Women are normally the first to step up and help those in need, it is called maternal instinct. Even if some were foolish and did have some romantic thoughts, that does not equate to wanting to be sexually abused and sadly no one told them, or anyone else, about muslim males and islam. You can be sure the lesson has been learned and Swedish females will stay inside behind locked doors. . In the 1950s the concept of rape as a hate crime had not been revealed yet. Welcome to 2018!!!

          Just to enlighten Susan B. – there have been some cases where female middle aged employees in asylum camps have been accused and convicted of sexual harassment against young male “refugees”.

          In Scandinavia it is a standard joke that sexual harassment only applies to young women; for women over 40 it is a fringe benefit. Agreed it is a crude inhuman joke, but such is life and I’m sure that parallel jokes about males circulate in feminist circles.

          “Just to enlighten Susan B. – there have been some cases where female middle aged employees in asylum camps have been accused and convicted of sexual harassment against young male “refugees”.”

          Really!! How about some proof; we all know that muslims never lie, right. I am actually shocked at the level of contempt you have for women. It is almost scary that you think that women have no value after age 40 and are controlled by their brain below the belt like a lot of men.

          “In Scandinavia it is a standard joke that sexual harassment only applies to young women; for women over 40 it is a fringe benefit. Agreed it is a crude inhuman joke, but such is life and I’m sure that parallel jokes about males circulate in feminist circles.”

          Wow, you just keep digging yourself deeper down your BS MGTOW hole. MUSLIMS RAPE ANYTHING WITH A HEARTBEAT. A teenage boy in Germany raped a lady in her nineties. So for you only young females have value??? Only young females “deserve to be raped”? I am convinced that you are muslim, the crap that you are typing is straight from the islamic view of women. You sound like some sort of psycho creep that actually might be dangerous.

          “In Scandinavia it is a standard joke”.

          Somehow I find that very doubtful and it is not even close to being funny and even worse than crude; it is misogyny at it’s worst. My guess is this is YOUR pathetic sick joke and there is nothing standard about it. And no, there are no parallel sick jokes, I consider males to be humans, not sex objects, most western men anyway. Wow I really hate islam, but your MGTOW is coming in a close second. I would not be surprised if your were both.

          Taking fun as simply fun
          and earnestness in earnest
          shows how thoroughly
          thou none
          of the two
          discernest.

          Craving only young girls is the definition of a pedophile and that seems all you are interested in. Very telling. Real men are attracted to women their own age. Again very telling. I love humor, so please display some, I could use a good laugh after having to deal with a creep like you.

        We’ve heard this kind of vicious claptrap before–that woman *love* being raped and murdered by surpremacist Mohammedans. Try again, creep.

        Rufluc, Susan knows what the vicious dan christensen is saying–we are both just condemning it.

    Their scripture doesn’t say kafir women are helal for rich, successful, attractive Muslims. That appears to be a western innovation. The scripture says kafir women are helal for any Muslim.

      Muslims have always raped Infidels and taken them as sex slaves, Jay Boo–ever since the days of the “Propthet”. Muslims are versatile–they can oppress Muslim women *and* Infidels at the same time.

    The mentality that women are to blame for men’s sexual urges (no matter how covered up they are and how far away they keep themselves) and therefore deserve rape is nothing unusual in the Islamic mindset. Especially the extremist mindset. So, Ramadan has once more revealed himself for what he truly is.

  7. Ibrahim itace muhammed says

    Jun 12, 2018 at 6:27 pm

    If at all this man has admitted having consensual sex with these ladies in his defense, it shows level of lewdness in western society and how difficult it is for a Muslim to maintain chastity in such illicit sex ravaged societies. one Indian- American muslim lady sought the opinion of an Islamic scholar on how she could resist illicit sex temptation in America where it is a norm of the society. He advised her to observe voluntary fasting to reduce sexual urges before finishing her studies to get married. I myself I encountered such temptations when I stayed in the evil United States, but I kept on praying and fasting where Allah protected me, I never succumbed to such pressure. Ramadan should do the same

    • gravenimage says

      Jun 12, 2018 at 7:32 pm

      Oh no! See–Tariq Ramadan *had* to rape those women, and it is all the fault of the “filthy Infidels”!

      And see–if only that “Indian- American muslim lady” had undergone FGM–as Ibrahim itace muhammed advises–she would not have such problems! If this keeps up, she might even want to marry for love, which Ibrahim itace muhammed has condemned as the worst thing a Muslim can do–worthy of death.

      As for his “own temptations”, Ibrahim itace muhammed said that he was accosted by an entire bus full of ‘filthy Christian ladies” who wanted to have sex with him in public in New York City–so he says. Good thing he was made of sterner stuf…sarc/off

      Personally, I take this about as seriously as I do Tariq Ramadans’s claims that he needed the police to roust multiple women intent on seducing him out of his bathroom…

      Jun 12, 2018 at 7:54 pm

      I,I,l,I,I. That about sums up the regard Muslim men have for women. Instead of learning self-control while interacting with and discovering the delightful and varied personalities of women, they put them in a bag with instructions not to open until they have a new owner.

      All the onus is on the women while the Muslim men have no more training for sexual self-control than wild animals.
