As we follow the unfolding story in Egypt, we are torn between hope and fear, hope that democracy will gain a toehold, fear that the fundamentalist Moslem Brothers could take control of Egypt. Perhaps you have heard the Moslem Brothers are the oldest and largest radical Islamic group, the grandfather of Hezbollah, Hamas, and al-Qaeda.
What you haven't been told is this: the Moslem Brothers were a small, unpopular group of anti-modern fanatics unable to attract members, until they were adopted by Adolf Hitler and the Third Reich beginning in the 1930s. Under the tutelage of the Third Reich, the Brothers the modern jihadi movement, complete with a genocidal program against Jews. In the words of Matthias Kuntzel, "The significance of the Brotherhood to Islamism is comparable to that of the Bolshevik Party to communism: It was and remains to this day the ideological reference point and organizational core for all later Islamist groups, including al-Qaeda and Hamas."
What is equally ominous for Jews and Israel is that despite Mubarak's pragmatic co-existence with Israel for the last 30 years, every Egyptian leader from Nasser, through Sadat, to Mubarak, has enshrined Nazi Jew-hatred in mainstream Egyptian culture, out of both conviction and political calculation. Nasser, trained by Nazis as a youth, spread the genocidal conspiracy theories of the Protocols of the Elders of Zion, making it a best seller throughout the Arab world. On the Ramadan following 9/11, Mubarak presided over a 30-week long TV series dramatizing the Elders and its genocidal message.
It is impossible to assess the danger posed by a takeover of Egypt today by the Moslem Brothers without knowing that Nazism launched the Brothers and is still at their core. This response to modernity and to Jews was not predetermined by Egyptian history or culture.

No follower of Islam is a moderate! This religion is a cult of death and intends on world domination, period!
I really do not care if Egypt falls to the islamic radicals, all of the middle east will eventually fall to them and conflicts will ensue.
The United States is best suited to weather this storm. Hardships will abound but we can recover from them as we have the ability to reactivate self providing resources.
We need a revolution to rid America of the academics and leftists in our government.
Maybe revolution is finally in the air.

The Society of the Muslim Brothers (often simply الإخوان Al-Ikhwān, The Brotherhood or MB) is an Islamist transnational movement and the largest political opposition organization in many Arab states.[1] The group is the world's oldest and largest Islamic political group,[1] and the "world's most influential Islamist movement."[2] It was founded in 1928 in Egypt by the Islamic scholar and Sufi schoolteacher Hassan al-Banna.
The Brotherhood's stated goal is to instill the Qur'an and Sunnah as the "sole reference point for ... ordering the life of the Muslim family, individual, community ... and state".[3] Since its inception in 1928 the movement has officially opposed violent means to achieve its goals,[4][5] with some exceptions such as in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict or to overthrow secular Ba'athist rule in Syria (see Hama massacre). This position has been questioned, particularly by the Egyptian government, which accused the group of a campaign of killings in Egypt after World War II.[6]
The Muslim Brotherhood is banned in Egypt, and members have been arrested for their participation in it.[7] As a means of circumventing the ban, supporters run for office as independents.[8]
Outside Egypt, the group's political activity has been described as evolving away from modernism and reformism towards a more traditional, "rightist conservative secularist" stance. The Brotherhood condemned terrorism and the 9/11 attacks,[9][10] but whether or not it has ties to terrorism is a matter of dispute.[11] Its position on violence has also caused disputes within the movement, with advocates of violence at times breaking away to form groups such as the Al-Gama'a al-Islamiyya (The Islamic Group) and Al Takfir Wal Hijra (Excommunication and Migration).[12]
Among the Brotherhood's more influential members was Sayyid Qutb. Qutb was the author of one of Islamism's most important books, Milestones, which called for the restoration of Islam by re-establishing the Sharia and by using "physical power and Jihad for abolishing the organizations and authorities of the Jahili system, which he believed to include the entire Muslim world. The book also reveals that Qutb no longer held the Brotherhood's ideas and that he was closer to the ideas of Hizb ut-Tahrir, which is concluded in the introduction and dedication of the book"[13][14] While studying at university, Osama bin Laden claimed to have been influenced by the religious and political ideas of several professors with strong ties to the Muslim Brotherhood including both Sayyid Qutb and his brother Muhammad Qutb. However, once Al Qaeda was fully organized, it denounced the Muslim Brotherhood's reform through nonviolence and accused them of "betraying the cause of Islam and abandoning their 'jihad' in favour of forming political parties and supporting modern state institutions".[15][16]
The Brotherhood is financed by contributions from its members, who are required to allocate a portion of their income to the movement. Some of these contributions are from members who live in oil-rich countries.[17]
Imho, the above information provided by Wikipedia may not be accurate, but may be an intentional misstatement of the goals of this group.
More attention needs to be directed at the persecution of Christians in Egypt.
And who is the most responsible for all the deaths of Copts and destruction of their property? Why, none other than the MB. And they are simply following the commands of their prophet.
The MB may be illegal in Egypt but it is very much alive and is, in fact, the best-organized opposition group to Mubarak. While the mob rages, the MB is plotting how to take advantage and grab power for itself.
Islam is a cult of death intent on controlling the world. Egypt will simply be their next target.
Europe must already be preparing for their surrender.
Yes, and I must say very shamefully that Scania (southern Sweden) will be the first region to go. Muzzies have all but taken over Malmö and what is the idiot Stockholm government’s reaction? Why, to tighten up on “hate speech” laws, of course. Muzzies can commit 90% of the country’s serious crime but don’t anybody dare make accusations against them! National death by PC seems to be the intent.
The UK may be getting a clue about immigration and Islam but the Tories run into a PC wall with every move they make.
The Muslim Brotherhood is the parent organization of Hezbollah. The Wikipedia article is misleading.
There, fixed it for ya.
We've been "fearing" for altogether too long.
If you’d like to be on or off, please FR mail me.
..................
It is indeed an intentional cleansing propagada piece. No mention of their Nazi connection at all.
Yes, and Hamas.
If you think that one is propaganda, you should see what Wikipedia says about Hasan Al-Banna. To their credit, they do acknowledge that the “neutrality of the article is disputed”, which is probably a gross understatement.
I could go on, but if that isn't enough no additional reason will convince anyone.
