A Broadcast of Hate - The True Agenda of Radio Islam
Radio Islam (islam-radio.net) presents itself as an alternative “truth platform,” but behind the facade of a cultural or religious outlet lies one of the longest-running antisemitic propaganda hubs on the internet.
Operating across multiple languages, the site has consistently promoted Holocaust denial, conspiracy narratives about “Jewish world control”, revealing personal details of Jewish individuals living in Denmark, and rhetoric framing Jews as a global enemy that must be confronted.
While originally tied to a Swedish radio broadcast in the late 1980s, the platform has since evolved into a digital archive of ideological extremism, one that blends Neo-Nazi themes, Islamist hostility toward Israel, and calls for “struggle” against so-called Jewish domination across the globe.
This report traces the evolution of islam-radio.net from a local broadcast into a transnational hate ecosystem, examines the role of its founder in shaping its ideology, and documents how the site has functioned as both an online archive and a recruitment asset for broader extremist narratives to find out who really runs the website.
Under The Hood of Radicalization
An anonymous tip of an Israeli family living in Denmark led me to this website, as I received a phone call from a guy, claiming his wife’s name and personal details are on the website, all because she has a Jewish name, which makes her a potential target.
When reviewing this website, I came across proper propaganda against Israelis and Jewish people, extreme antisemite content, pure pro-Palestinian opinions, and significant incitement to violence.
The website includes graphic content taken from the old Nazi Germany, spreads conspiracy theories about Jews, and publishes content of Holocaust denial.
The website itself originated in Sweden in the late 1990s as the online continuation of a Stockholm-based radio program founded in 1987 by Ahmed Rami. Although its name suggests a religious or cultural Islamic broadcast, the site is not a mainstream Islamic platform but an openly antisemitic propaganda hub that has been repeatedly cited by watchdog organizations, scholars, and legal authorities as one of the most extreme hate-based websites on the internet.
The website hosts a large multilingual archive of articles, books, and documents whose central purpose is to delegitimize and demonize Jews, Zionism, and Israel.
The site positions itself as a “freedom fighter” platform and uses militant language that portrays Jews as an enemy that must be opposed, turning antisemitic conspiracy theory into a call for action, even a physical one.
Altough there is no official claim by the owner of Radio Islam, or as it is written in the website - “This Site is owned by a group of Freedom Fighters from different countries in support of Ahmed Rami‘s struggle”, this website runs in the image and insparation of Rami himself.
Ahmed Rami, who was mentioned, is a Moroccan-Swedish former military officer who fled to Sweden after allegedly taking part in a 1972 coup attempt against King Hassan II, later becoming known as one of Europe’s most prominent antisemitic propagandists.
In 1987, he founded Radio Islam in Stockholm, originally a community radio program that quickly shifted into broadcasting Holocaust denial, conspiracy theories about “Jewish/Zionist power,” and far-right extremist content.
In 1996, it moved online under the domain islam-radio.net, which has since been cited by watchdog groups (ADL, SPLC) as one of the most radical antisemitic sites on the internet.
Rami was convicted in Sweden in 1990 for “incitement against an ethnic group” and served six months in prison, and has been investigated multiple times since for similar offenses, including a 2025 conviction related to antisemitic statements and praise of Hitler.
His ideology represents a hybrid of Islamist-style anti-Zionism and European Neo-Nazi rhetoric, creating an unusual bridge between far-right and radical Islamist narratives.
From Tunisia with Hate
When checking old domain records, I noticed that the name of the domain was part of a known registrar data leak, occured a few years ago.
The leak included not only the dmian name, but an email address and a phone number associated to it.
When searching the email, I managed to find it in an XLS document from 2014, called “Selection Events”, probably a bunch of events around the area of Africa and Tunisia, alongside full names of two individuals and 2 different email addresses, as one of them is the email address that is associated directly with islam-radio.net.
The associated names are Jawhara Mohamed Ayoub, Hidoussi Ben, and Hidoussi Ahmed Farouk (who are most likely related by blood).
The email addresses (one of which is already known and directly associated with Radio Islam are hmatest@gmail[.]com and hidoussifarouk6@gmail[.]com, a personal email address of one of the individuals.
Both emails related directly to Hidoussi’s, but the email hidoussifarouk6@gmail[.]com (belongs to Farouk Hidoussi / Farouk Hidouci) found in direct association with an Instagram account of an armed individual with a face mask, standing near a vehicle that seems to be tagged with a car plate of France.
This account contains only one photo, of Algeria’s national flag and follows extremists content, such as the account “s3dosh_officiel”, that publish photos of radical Islam and owns a profile picture with the Arabic text “We belong to god, and to him we shall return”, a very known phrase taken from Quran and mostly used in terms of death and terror.
The Faces Behind Radio Islam
The email addresses and names revealed two individuals, their names already been mentioned (Farouk Hidoussi, Hidoussi Ayoub), Tech Journalists and web designers from Tunisia.
The email address and phone number that are directly associated to the domain of Radio Islam led to this individual as well, confirming his identity and direct relation and ownership to this matter.
