Ideology and causes

In an article in the Arab Times, Abdelhaleem was credited for helping refute the 9/11 Truth movement conspiracy film 911: In Plane Site.[1]

Abdelhaleem declared liberals and secularists as "infidels", in the hopes of accelerating a clash between Islamists and secularists and liberals. His work was published by Hani al-Siba'i who is wanted in Egypt.[2] Hani al-Sibai wrote an article defending Tariq Abdelhaleem from criticism.[3] Tariq Abdelhaleem issued a joint statement with Hani al-Siba'i condemning ISIS in 2014.[4]

In the aftermath of the overthrow of the Egyptian president Mohamed Morsi and the Muslim Brotherhood, Tariq Abdelhaleem posted a video of himself called a "message to the Mujahideen of Egypt" calling for jihad against Egyptian leader Abdel Fattah el-Sisi, cursing Sisi, calling him "a Jew", and accusing Sisi of being pro-Christian, and of supporting the Coptic Pope.[5]

In an article published in the 19th edition of the Turkistan Islamic Party's magazine "Islamic Turkistan" Tariq Abdelhaleem named Buddhists as the enemy of Turkistan.[6]:38 In the magazine, Abdelhaleem singled out the Persian Gulf, Jordan, the Levant, and Egypt as places of an internal enemy of Islam and the Caucasus, Chechnya, Afghanistan, and Turkistan as places of an occupying enemy of Islam.[6]:44
