UK condemns Muslim Brotherhood in break from Obama administration

A powerful report by the U.K. government accuses the Muslim Brotherhood of being sympathetic to terrorists and a risk to British national security, striking a contrast with the Obama administration's more conciliatory approach -- and fueling criticism that the U.S. government should wake up to the threat.

"I think the report is a damning indictment of the Muslim Brotherhood, and it's a very realistic assessment of the nature of the Brotherhood itself,' Nile Gardiner, director of the Heritage Foundation's Margaret Thatcher Center for Freedom, told FoxNews.com. "The British government has taken a far more serious approach compared to the Obama administration's."

The internal review of the Muslim Brotherhood was ordered by Prime Minister David Cameron in April 2014 and while the report is classified, Cameron ordered the main findings of the report to be made public.

The report found that supporting Hamas was an important priority for the Brotherhood. It noted that while the group at times has renounced violence, senior figures have repeatedly defended Hamas attacks on Israel and justified attacks against coalition forces in the U.S. and Afghanistan.

Also, while the Muslim Brotherhood has criticized Al Qaeda, leaders have claimed that the 9/11 attacks were fabricated by the U.S. government, and that the war on terror is merely a pretext to attack Muslim countries.

Uh oh, ping.

Fertile territory for a Trump attack on Hillary and Huma's ties to the MB.

I’m amazed it took this long.

For goodness’ sake, we can’t follow suit - half the MB are obama’s cousins.

So will the UK now apologize to Michael Savage, Pamela Geller, and Robert Spencer for being bullied by the Obama administration into banning these three patriots, who said exactly what they now understand to be true? They need to immediately life the ban and pay damages to these three for the lies they told about them.

I doubt it, the Cameron government talks about fighting ‘extremism’ and has proposed rules that will mean government inspectors watching every institution, including schools and churches of all religions for ‘extremism’.

The “Conservative” government of David Cameron enforces ‘hate crime’ laws meaning a woman who said she would not serve Muslims at her beauty salon after the Paris attacks was arrested as a ‘hate criminal’ by the police.

Christians who express opposition to gay marriage or homosexuality have been investigated and or arrested by ‘hate crimes’ units of the police.

Its no wonder they ban Michael Savage and the others, heck I’ve even heard the UK government took Oliver North’s passport when he visited the country recently.

Maybe I should try to visit the country to see how I would be ‘welcomed’.

Maybe because the UK isn’t being led by a closet Muzzie.

Their policy hasn't changed on Islam. Islam is still recognized as a religion of peace. Also, there is no problem with the belief at all. The followers if they only got the message that Muhammad taught them everything would be fine.

It's as though they refuse to open the book and read it.
