An Obama administration official, speaking anonymously to the Washington Post, said the administration is open to the outlawed Muslim Brotherhood being in the government of Egypt that will likely replace the rule of Hosni Mubarak:
The official said that while the administration was concerned about "some elements" of the outlawed Muslim Brotherhood and other non-secular groups participating in the demonstrations, it was "not ruling out their legitimacy" and place in a future government.
Obama was aware that the Muslim Brotherhood and others were in the audience when he spoke of "a new beginning" in a 2009 speech in Cairo that was directed at the Islamic world, the official said. He cited a passage in the speech in which Obama said that "no system of government can or should be imposed by one nation on any other" and that "America respects the right of all peaceful and law-abiding voices to be heard around the world, even if we disagree with them."
The Post buried this unsettling revelation in an article about the administration charting a "delicate course to oust Mubarak."
Voice of America reported that at today's White House briefing, Press Secretary Robert Gibbs said the administration had no contact with the Muslim Brotherhood:
Gibbs was also asked about the U.S. position on potential participation of the Muslim Brotherhood in any new governing structure, saying that the United States has had no contact with the group.
"We have as we have throughout the world, standards for that contact - that is adherence to the law, adherence to non-violence and a willingness to be part of a democratic process, but not use that democratic process to simply instill yourself into power," he said.
While the group professes to be non-violent, the Muslim Brotherhood is widely considered to be the father of international Islamic terrorism and is thought to be working to create a global Islamic caliphate.
The reason why Barry 0 ain’t ruling the Muslim Brotherhood out?
Because the Anglo-American power elite that run the show WANT the creation of another hostile Islamic state, with the ultimate goal being the collapse of Saudi Arabia. Anyone who thinks that Obama truly runs the USA needs a reality check; he is a pawn of the Power Elite of bankers etc- when Obama speaks if you look closely enough you can see the strings moving from the ceiling. He works well as the establishment’s man because we all know he isn’t fundamentally opposed to what’s going on in the Middle East right now.
The ultimate aim is very simple-
* End US Dollar reserve system so that commodities (especially oil) go through the roof. Blame it all on the “fight against global warming” so that people will accept a lower standard of living. Wipe out the middle class with the end of cheap food.
* Create a boogeyman via the inception of fundamentalist Islamic states in the Middle East. The West has always gotta have an enemy, right?
* Use this enemy to restrict freedoms back home.
* WW3 against our newfound enemy.
* New World Order with a one-world system of government and currency at the end of it all. Massively reduced population to rule over more easily (achieved through engineered famine and disease, as well as war)
* Goodbye sweet freedom.
It really is hugely important that we all push home to friends and family the fact that there is an establishment out there that is “playing” the world for its benefit. Shakespeare once said “All the world’s a stage,
And all the men and women merely players” - he was very prescient.
Many will disagree and call you a “nutjob” or “Lunatic” or anything along those lines when you try to tell them the truth. Its very reminiscent of the Matrix, where Morpheus shows Neo the false, controlled world for the first time and says “most of these people are not yet ready to be freed- they will fight to protect what they think is their reality”
Obama Administration Lifts US Ban on Muslim Brotherhood Leader
01/22/10 | IsraelNationalNews.com | by Avi Yellin
The Barack Obama administration has decided to lift a ban preventing Muslim Scholar Professor Tariq Ramadan from entering the United States. Ramadan, an Egyptian currently living in Switzerland, is a leading member of Europes Muslim Brotherhood branch and the grandson of the movements founder Hassan al-Banna. The Muslim Brotherhood is the parent organization for Hamas and some of the groups that recently merged into al-Qaeda, including Ayman al Zawahiris Egyptian Islamic Jihad.
Ramadan was invited to teach at the University of Notre Dame in 2004 but the George W. Bush administration revoked his visa, citing a statute that applies to those who have endorsed or espoused terrorism. The administration later dropped the terror endorsement claim and linked the ban to $1,336 in donations Ramadan made between 1998 and 2002 to a Swiss charity that was later blacklisted by the US.
Although the White House asked the court last March to uphold the Bush-era entry ban on Ramadan, the administration has now decided to lift the ban and possibly allow both Ramadan and South African Muslim activist Professor Adam Habib onto American soil. State Department spokesman Philip Crowley told reporters that the government no longer views Ramadan or Habib as representing threats to the United States. The next time Professor Ramadan or Professor Habib apply for a visa, they will not be found inadmissible on the basis of the facts that led to denial when they last applied.
October 1, 2010 - San Francisco, CA - PipeLineNews.org - Tariq Ramadan, the son of [now deceased] Said Ramadan, former Secty. General of the World Islamic Council [source, http://www.post-gazette.com/pg/05193/536684.stm] and grandson of Hassan Al Banna [see, Wiki bio, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tariq_Ramadan] the 1928 founder of the Muslim Brotherhood, is headlining the 16th Annual CAIR Banquet on October 9.
According to the Weekly Standard, it was Said Ramadan who was the likely author of the Muslim Brotherhoods ambitious plan to topple Western democracies, variously called, the Plan or the Project. [Link to doc here An Explanatory Memorandum On the General Strategic Goal for the Group in North America. The document was entered into evidence in U.S. vs. Holy Land Foundation, Americas most important terror funding prosecution.
Said Ramadan was one of the most important Islamist thinkers of the 20th century. He is probably the author of The Project, a 14-page document dated 1982 found by the Swiss secret service in 2001. The Project is a roadmap for installing Islamic regimes in the West by propaganda, preaching, and if necessary war.

Excerpt:
Jasser said that Western elites misconstrue critical issues in the current struggle with radical Islam. They erroneously believe that the most important aspect of the conflict is whether an Islamist organization is violent or nonviolent.
But truly moderate Muslims spend most of their time dealing with the factors that drive people toward radical Islam. And a major factor is political Islam, which Jasser described as the 800-pound elephant in the room.
A key component of this consists of making excuses for terrorism and objecting to U.S. defense actions against violent jihadists. Jasser cited an interview during which a reporter asked Ramadan about the recent announcement that the United States would target Anwar al-Awlaki an Al Qaeda-linked imam who has endorsed terrorist attacks like the Fort Hood massacre and the attempted Christmas Day airliner bombing.
Ramadan voiced objections to U.S. efforts to kill Awlaki, saying the imam felt estrangement from mainstream American society and had been pushed away.
Jasser and Mansur voiced particularly strong objections to this root cause argument, saying it was an attempt to make excuses for Awlakis criminal behavior. Ramadan also accepted money from Iran as compensation for a television show on the regime controlled PRESS Television.
I would not take remuneration from a government that engages in the oppression of Muslims, Jasser said.
Ramadan stands for obfuscation and denial and represents the ideology of the Muslim Brotherhood, he added.
Fatah, who also published this column on Ramadan in the Montreal Gazette, blasted the cowardice of Western society in refusing to confront efforts to recreate the world of [Muslim Brotherhood founder Hassan al-Banna, Tariq Ramadans grandfather] in Canada.

good point
‘fraid so. and it helps me not one whit to be able to
say “I told you so” to persons who don’t frequent FR.
Sandmonkey has been only on Twitter for weeks. I was
almost crying reading some of it.
I suspect El Bardai will play benevolent leader for the next 1.5 years and when Obama is gone the muslim brotherhood will take over outright.
Jack Tapper is reporting the US has deployed a Reagan/Bush era diplomat to aid in a “transition”.
The guys name is Frank Wisner, who it appears has a dubious history working with Muslim Brotherhood, and Nazi party members. No idea if this source is accurate, but the website appears to be well sourced.
It's worse. Jimmy Carter is Obama after steroids!
He promised to side with them... he just did.
LLS
funny, we few of us believe Obama is legitimate.
The muslim brotherhood stated that the first act of their power will be to cancel that very Peace Treaty.
LLS
No, this is far worse than Carter 2. This is high treason - aiding and abetting our enemies.
We will see how it plays out.
One thing is certain.
This guy is not on our team.
Where was his concern about human rights and freedom with Amadinijad? Jong Il? Hu Jinto?
Has the State Department classified the MB as a terrorist organization? If so this is grounds for Impeachment or even high treason.
It depends. If the Muslim Brotherhood can make an alliance with Russia and/or China, the Egyptian military will get everything it wants from them.
He does it just to piss all of you off.
And it apparently works (sigh)
Then reality has to be brought to bear. These people are eating our wheat. If they ignore our wishes in this matter then we need to send the geopolitical equivalent of Chris and Paulie over to discuss their
attitude. If this happens, and we do nothing to convince them of our earnestness, then we shall have to send them a strongly worded Note!
Hey. That’s just business. /s
So long as the good ol USA never has to work with bad actors the liberals will love the outcome.
