Red-Green Alliance
Not to be confused with the Danish political party the Red-Green Alliance (Danish party).
The term Red-Green Alliance denotes a conspiracy theory of an alliance between the radical left and radical Muslims. (Similar concepts are expressed in the terms Regressive left, Islamo-Leftism, and Red-Green-Brown Alliance)
The concept was being floated as early as 2004 by the Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs.[1] It was further developed in 2007 by Lorenzo Vidino, in the pages of Terrorism Monitor[2] the journal of the Jamestown Foundation a neoconservative outfit alleged in the past to be connected to the CIA[3] and a publication of one of the core US Islamophobic groups, the Investigative Project on Terrorism.[4] It has later been endorsed in 2013 by researchers in START at the University of Maryland, a largely US government funded research centre[5] and again flagged in 2019 by the Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs.[6]
