He Lost His Brother on 9/11: Former NY Firefighter and Air Force Veteran Speaks Out Over ‘Radical’ Muslims’ Primary Wins

Wait 5 sec.

Democrat nominee Adam Hamawy traveled with and translated for terrorist leader the “Blind Sheikh,” Omar Abdel-Rahman, testified at his terrorism trial in ways that contradicted documentary evidence, and volunteered with the Benevolence International Foundation, an organization later sanctioned by the U.S. Treasury Department and identified by the 9/11 Commission as part of Osama bin Laden’s covert financial network.While no one who experienced 9/11 will ever forget that day, those who lost loved ones shoulder a special burden and sadness.Don Arias, a former New York firefighter and Air Force Veteran, lost his brother Adam in the terrorist attack.Adam, 37,  worked on the 84th floor of the South Tower (World Trade Center 2) for an international trading/brokerage firm. After the North Tower was hit, Don, then an Air Force officer, called Adam and told him to “go home.”Instead, Adam helped evacuate coworkers and stayed to assist people and first responders on the ground. He was killed when the South Tower collapsed.Don is speaking out after people he claims hold extreme beliefs are being embraced by Democrats and winning elections.Arias told Fox News, “When it comes to terrorist sympathizers, I don’t really suffer fools kindly, and this guy is beyond the pale,” he said of Dr. Adam Hamawy, now the Democratic nominee for Congress in New Jersey’s blue-leaning 12th Congressional District.In particular, Don raised Hamawy’s cozy relationship with terrorist Omar Abdel-Rahman, aka the “Blind Sheikh,” who was the mastermind of the 1993 World Trade Center bombing.Hamawy testified in his defense at the largest terrorism trial in American history, and volunteered with an organization the U.S. Treasury Department and the 9/11 Commission identified as part of Osama bin Laden’s covert financial network.As The Gateway Pundit reported, Hamawy won in the district where Todd Beamer is buried.You may remember Todd Beamer as the airline passenger on Flight 93 who famously said “Let’s roll” as his last known words, referring to other passengers as they prepared to retake control of the plane, which crashed into a field in rural Pennsylvania instead of somewhere in DC.Don spoke with Fox News Digital:“But when he’s pals with the Blind Sheikh, and he’s his translator for several years, when he testifies for him in court saying what a great guy is, when he spends that kind of time with this guy, and then says that he’s never heard him say anything about jihad, I have to question his veracity. I mean, that just doesn’t ring true,” Arias told Fox News Digital.“Show me who your friends are, and I’ll tell you who you are,” he continued.“And if this guy Hamawy is going to try and forget all about that — he wants it to go down the memory hole and say, ‘oh, I was a veteran, you know, I did good stuff’ — I’m not going to forget, and I don’t think people should forget.“Read more about Hamawy’s disturbing background:Democrat Congressional Nominee Adam Hamawy Has al-Qaeda and 9/11 Ties/*!
