Alykhan Velshi (born 6 February 1984) is a lawyer, and corporate executive. He has previously been a policy analyst, and ministerial assistant. He has worked at the predominantly neoconservative American Enterprise Institute and was manager of research at the Foundation for the Defense of Democracies, where he co-founded the Center for Law and Counterterrorism with Andrew C. McCarthy. He has written pieces in support of George W. Bush’s foreign and military policies. Velshi previously worked as director of issues management for Stephen Harper. He used to work as chief of staff for two leaders of the official opposition of Ontario, Patrick Brown and Vic Fedeli, who were then leader of the Ontario Progressive Conservative Party.

Velshi has written extensively about foreign policy, particularly with regard to the Middle East. His position is pro-Israel and strongly supportive of George W. Bush’s foreign policy. In a December 2002 letter to the National Post newspaper, he argued that Canada should ban the political wing of Hezbollah. While attending the LSE, he wrote an academic piece defending George W. Bush’s argument for “preemptive” war in Iraq as being grounded in both historical precedent and “original texts on international law”. Just before graduating, he wrote an article for the National Review entitled “Choosing Sides: The challenge for Muslims”, in which he argued that moderate Muslims were often reluctant to counter what he described as “Islamist extremism”. This article favourably quoted George W. Bush’s remark, “You’re either with us or you’re with the terrorists”. In January 2006, he criticized The Globe and Mail newspaper for referring to Israel’s separation barrier as a “wall”; Velshi argued that it should be called a “fence.”

In a subsequent email sent to Arab organizations, CAF President Khaled Mouammar argued that the CAF was the victim of a “well-planned Zionist campaign … being waged by the Canadian Jewish Congress and B’nai Brith supported by some politicians” to intimidate Arab Canadians. He also stated that this campaign “was developed after the Lebanon war of July, 2006, to suppress all criticism of Israel and equate it with anti-Semitism.” Velshi argued in response that Mouammar’s naming of the Canadian Jewish Congress and B’nai Brith “[did] not just disdain Zionists, but the Jewish community as a whole.” He also said of Mouammar’s email, “It’s the ugliest, most vile sort of language. It’s not surprising to us that he is again engaged in this sort of reprehensible rhetoric trying to pit community against community.”
