Secret Service foiled Islamic State assassination plot against Trump in the Philippines
The Muslim Brotherhood (MB) has been in the news lately as one of the reasons behind the current diplomatic crisis between Qatar and other Gulf countries.
On June 7, Saudi Foreign Minister Adel al-Jubeir told reporters during a visit to Paris that Qatar “must stop supporting Hamas and the Muslim Brotherhood”.
Jubeir’s statements came two days after Egypt, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates and Bahrain severed diplomatic ties with Qatar in the worst rift to hit the GCC region.
Qatar became a central target of the Saudi-Emirati-Israeli joint lobbying efforts for its perceived role in promoting the Muslim Brotherhood and hosting members of Hamas’ political bureau.
In response to the allegations, the US Secretary of State, Rex Tillerson, said the classification of the entire Muslim Brotherhood as terrorists is problematic.
During his June 14th testimony before the House Committee on Foreign Relations, Tillerson pointed out that “there are elements of the Muslim Brotherhood that have become parts of governments.”
To date, the countries that have labelled the MB as a “terrorist organisation” are: Egypt, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Syria, and the United Arab Emirates.
