I'm not sure what to make of it, but it is bizarre.

For nearly 20 years, one question has been asked, over and over, about Hillary Clinton’s closest, most enigmatic aide: Who is Huma Abedin?

As the election hurtles to its inglorious end, that question has taken on new weight.

With the FBI looking into Clinton e-mails contained on a laptop shared by Abedin and estranged husband Anthony Weiner — himself now the subject of an FBI investigation for sexting with a 15-year-old girl and sending a crotch shot with his toddler son sleeping next to him — Abedin has gone from loyalist to liability.

Though she hasn’t been seen with Clinton since the story broke on Oct. 29, the campaign insists she is not going anywhere.

“Huma continues to play an invaluable role,” campaign chair John Podesta told The Post Friday. “No one is more loyal to Secretary Clinton, and she remains one of her closest advisers. We all admire her grace and fortitude.”

Still: Just who is she?

Not much is known about Abedin’s life before Clinton Inc. She was born in 1976 in Kalamazoo, Mich., to an Indian father, Syed, and a Pakistani mother, Saleha. Both were academics and devout Muslims. When Huma was 2, the family moved to Saudi Arabia, but almost nothing is known of Huma’s childhood and teen years. She returned to the United States to attend George Washington University, majoring in journalism with a minor in political science.

reported that Abedin was listed as assistant editor on the masthead from 1996 to 2008; the Clinton camp said she was only a figurehead.

In 1996, still an undergrad, Abedin began interning for Hillary at the White House. It’s the only job she has ever really known, and her loyalty to Hillary was forged in the crucible of the Lewinsky scandal and Bill Clinton’s impeachment.

So much of the public fascination with Abedin has to do with her contradictions: She’s a practicing Muslim who married a Jewish man, who abstains from alcohol yet is never without her red lipstick, the daughter of a woman who believes men are wholly superior yet has devoted her life to potentially the first female president of the United States.

So much of the public fascination with Abedin has to do with her contradictions.

“She was a very, very religious person — she didn’t smoke, drink or swear, always very polite,” a Clinton insider told Newsweek earlier this year. “A lot of times, Hillary would snap her fingers and go, ‘Gum.’ And Huma would fetch it.” This same source said Abedin was so dedicated that when she heard Hillary had been forced to carry her own bag up a staircase, she almost cried.

Another insider, however, told Newsweek that Abedin’s public image is pure projection. “She wasn’t that interesting a person,” the source said. “She has been turned into a myth.”

Ever since Hillary began running for president nine years ago, Abedin has been part of her campaign strategy. In 2007, Vogue ran a fawning profile of Abedin, who sat for famed fashion photographer Norman Jean Roy. She was depicted as a reluctant star, not just Clinton’s handmaiden but something of a soul mate.




Some of us think she is a dyke-mate "significant other..."
 
“Most of the experts I’ve spoken to conclude, looking at the various facts regarding Huma–her rise, where she came from, her family background, her various connections–conclude that she is most likely a Saudi spy, which is my own conclusion.”
Roger Stone: Clinton Aide Huma Abedin 'Most Likely a Saudi Spy'

Huma’s mother has been active in the International Islamic Council for Da’wa and Relief, which is now headed by Nasseef and was banned in Israel on account of its ties to the Union of Good, a pro-Hamas fund-raising network, run by Yusuf al-Qaradawi.

Abdullah Omar Nasseef, the man who set up the Abedins in Jidda, and a host of right-wing screeds pop up. Though he is a high-ranking insider in the Saudi government and sits on the king’s Shura Council, there are claims that Nasseef once had ties to Osama bin Laden and al-Qaeda and that he remains a “major” figure in the Muslim Brotherhood.

Huma Abedin was also a member of the Muslim Students’ Association (MSA) – a student’s wing of the controversial Muslim Brotherhood. Saleha Abedin, on the other hand, is a leading member of the Muslim Sisterhood – the sister wing of the Brotherhood.

Shortly after Huma left the MSA, Anwar al-Awlaki became its chaplain. Awlaki was the al Qaeda member who guided the 9/11 attackers.

As careless as HRC is with national security, maybe Huma is a spy. This may seem like an outrageous conspiracy theory, but conspiracy is what spies do.
