MEMRI's Vital Work Needs Your Help – Please Donate To Our Summer Campaign
Although the Israel-Iran ceasefire appears to be holding, Iran has not stopped threatening to attack the U.S. and Israel and assassinate President Trump. MEMRI continues to monitor Iranian and Farsi-language media – print, broadcast, online, and social media – around the clock; no other organization in the world is doing this. But we need your support today to continue with our mission. If you have already donated, we thank you; donations can take some time to process.
FBI Warns Of Iran And Hizbullah Sleeper Cells In U.S. – The MEMRI JTTM Monitors Their Activity, Alerts Law Enforcement
In the aftermath of the Israel-Iran war, and as the FBI announced, the U.S. is facing threats from Iranian and Hezbollah sleeper cells within the country. The MEMRI Jihad and Terrorism Threat Monitor project monitors this and other jihadi activity in the U.S. and Canada, providing timely alerts to law enforcement, on the federal, state, and local levels. Our alerts about jihadi activity have in the past led to arrests, helped support prosecutions, and led to convictions.
Monitoring Extremist Imams And Islamist Organizations In The U.S.
In the U.S. and Canada, and across the West, MEMRI's Sermons By Imams in the West project is monitoring extremist imams and Islamist organizations who are often behind anti-U.S. and anti-Israel protests and activity – such as the rally in Portland, OR where participants chanted "Death to America! Death to Israel!" and called "the American entity" – the U.S. –"a den of liars."
Our work is praised by leading reformist Muslim figures. This week the Egyptian-American Maghdi Khalil, a MEMRI board member, affirmed that MEMRI's translations "follow the mainstream" in its areas of focus, which he underlines is its mission. He emphasized that MEMRI "is a respected American institution in Washington D.C., and they invited me to be on their board of advisors," enumerated several prominent board members, praised MEMRI Vice President Amb. Alberto M. Fernandez, who, as he said, "was in charge of Alhurra TV for a long time."
MEMRI Is The Only Organization Translating Qatari Government Media; Our Qatar Monitor Project Researches The World's Foremost Supporter Of Terrorism And Of The Muslim Brotherhood
As multiple Members of Congress from both sides of the aisle are supporting legislature to declare the Muslim Brotherhood a terrorist organization, MEMRI's research continues to expose the Qatari regime – the main sponsor of the Muslim Brotherhood and terrorism around the world – and will serve Congress as an important resource. With our Qatar Monitor Project, we maintain the largest archive in the world of translated content from Qatari media, including its Al-Jazeera network, as Qatar continues to pay massive sums to gain influence in American and Western politics, higher education, media, and other areas of U.S. and Western life – including backing pro-jihad, pro-Hamas, and pro-Iran activity.
For many years, we have been closely following the Qatar-supported International Union of Muslim Scholars (IUMS), which is one of the Qatari regime's main tools for disseminating extremist anti-Western Islamist ideology, routinely inciting jihad, terrorism and antisemitism. The IUMS recently called the U.S. "the cause of all our troubles."
Additionally, our work on the Russia-Iran-China triad that is acting against the U.S. and its allies, focusing on primary sources in all three countries, is unique to MEMRI.
As a MEMRI subscriber, you realize the amount of work we are doing and the amount of material we are publishing. We are doing more than other research organizations many times our size with many times our budget. Please help support us today.
With gratitude,
