The Truth about the Muslim Brotherhood
Front Page Magazine ^ | 16 June 2006 | Dr. Rachel Ehrenfeld and Alyssa A. Lappen

Posted on 06/16/2006 5:09:33 AM PDT by unionblue83

On October 28, 2005,[1] President George W. Bush denounced IslamoFascist movements that call for a “violent and political vision: the establishment, by terrorism, subversion and insurgency, of a totalitarian empire that denies all political and religious freedom.”

The Muslim Brotherhood (Al-Ikhwan Al-Muslimun)[2] also known as the Ikhwan is a good example of what the President described and what he must protect us against.

The Muslim Brotherhood (“MB”) organization describes itself as a political and social revolutionary movement; it was founded in March 1928 in Egypt by Hassan al-Banna, who objected to Western influence and called for return to an original Islam.[3]

The Brotherhood is an expansive and secretive society with followers in more than 70 countries, dedicated to creating a global Islamic order that would isolate women and punish nonbelievers. Its members and supporters founded al Qaeda, as well as one “of the largest college student groups in the United States.”[4]

The Deputy Assistant to the President and Deputy National Security Advisor for Combating Terrorism, Juan Zarate, stated recently, “the Muslim Brotherhood is a group that worries us not because it deals with philosophical or ideological ideas but because it defends the use of violence against civilians.”[5] In fact, The MB 1982 secret plan, (the Project) recently exposed, instructs all members locally and globally “To channel thought, education and action in order to establish an Islamic power [government] on the earth.” [6]

MB is apparently the root of the problem but seems to escape being listed as a terror organization.

Ikhwan/Muslim-Brotherhood/Qutb PING.

Several pages long (worth saving), but not to be missed.

Another excellent article by Ehrenfeld.

"Conclusion



The MB is a dangerous organization that spreads its tentacles throughout the world. Its goal is the establishment of the Caliphate ruled by Islamic law. Mostly Saudi and Gulf sources fund its activities.



Recommendation



The Muslim Brotherhood spawned and encouraged many Islamist proxies dedicated to the spread of Shari’a law around the world and the establishment of the Caliphate. In many countries it has also been linked to terrorist groups and activities. In others, its members support terrorist organizations verbally and financially. Moreover, in the U.S. as elsewhere it calls on its supporters to "To channel thought, education and action in order to establish an Islamic power [government] on the earth.” Such form of government would deprive Americans of their rights as granted by the Constitution.



In the interest of preserving freedom in the U.S. while advancing it globally, it is time for our government to thoroughly investigate the Muslim Brotherhood and its offshoots and consider designating it as a terrorist organization.



In the same vein, the U.S should not allow foreign donations to U.S. organizations and institutions from Islamic countries that prohibit religious freedom."

This octopus has so many tentacles...its head must be destroyed.

The Ikhwan was involved in fedayeen activities (i.e., attacks on civilians or terrorism) both before, during, and after the First Arab-Israeli War. Why they haven't been declared a terrorist group by now is inexplicable.

I suppose that would mean declaring war on islam...and I don't think we are ready to do that YET. Not with 50% of the public still believing it's only a religion...governments take their cue from the population, from the Voters. The MAJORITY need to let them know we are ready to fight back, methinks...and a majority of right wing governments representing Western Civ in the UN would certainly help get the message across.

Slowly catchee monkey!

That's what it all really boils down to. Sooner or later, it will happen. The longer we wait, the more innocents will suffer.
