Red-Green Axis Seizes New Jersey

In this RAIR Foundation article, Donna Fodor argues that Dr. Adam Hisham Hamawy’s New Jersey congressional campaign represents a growing alliance between far-left political organizations and Islamic activist voting blocs.

• The article focuses on Hamawy, an Egyptian-born surgeon and Democratic candidate in New Jersey’s 12th Congressional District, who has received support from Justice Democrats and other progressive-aligned groups.
• RAIR frames Hamawy’s rise as part of a “red-green axis,” describing an alliance between socialist political movements and Islamic political networks inside Democratic primaries.
• The piece highlights Hamawy’s past testimony as a defense witness connected to Omar Abdel-Rahman, the “Blind Sheikh” convicted in connection with the 1993 World Trade Center bombing plot.
• The article also notes Hamawy’s military and medical background, including his service as a surgeon and his role in saving then-Major Tammy Duckworth after her helicopter was shot down in Iraq.
• RAIR raises concerns about Hamawy’s medical work in Gaza, arguing that his activity in Hamas-controlled areas and interviews with far-left figures deserve closer scrutiny.
• The article lists endorsements and support from figures and groups including Bernie Sanders, Ilhan Omar, Ro Khanna, CAIR Action, AJP Action, and the New Jersey Muslim Civic Coalition Activate.
• A major focus is the reported $2 million support from American Priorities PAC, which RAIR describes as a pro-Palestine super PAC funded by donors tied to other progressive and anti-Israel political efforts.
• The article argues that organized Muslim voter mobilization in New Jersey is becoming a serious political force, particularly through forums, voter guides, and issue-based candidate pressure.
• RAIR concludes that New Jersey’s politics are being reshaped by bloc voting, immigration-driven demographic change, and alliances between progressive activists and Islamic political interests.
