Muslim Brotherhood: ‘Prepare Egyptians for war with Israel'
Jerusalem Post ^ | 02/01/2011 | YAAKOV LAPPIN

Posted on 02/01/2011 5:46:56 AM PST by RobertClark

A leading member of the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt told the Arabic-language Iranian news network Al-Alam on Monday that he would like to see the Egyptian people prepare for war against Israel, according to the Hebrew-language business newspaper Calcalist.

Muhammad Ghannem reportedly told Al- Alam that the Suez Canal should be closed immediately, and that the flow of gas from Egypt to Israel should cease “in order to bring about the downfall of the Mubarak regime.” He added that “the people should be prepared for war against Israel,” saying the world should understand that “the Egyptian people are prepared for anything to get rid of this regime.”

Ghannem praised Egyptian soldiers deployed by President Hosni Mubarak to Egyptian cities, saying they “would not kill their brothers.” He added that Washington was forced to abandon plans to help Mubarak stay in power after “seeing millions head for the streets.”

Never underestimate 80 million “stoned Muslims”. The Egyptians are smart enough to let the military do it's “thing”, get organized and primed to invade the Sinai and the Israeli Negev desert. True, that there is chaos there right now but there are many elements within the military that have been itching to fight Israel with the M1A Abrams tanks since the 1980’s. One cannot underestimate the stupidity of desperate Islamicists. It would be enough to have Iran/Syria and Gaza attack Israel while the Egyptians joining in at some point and then, the Aswan dam will be obliterated...

Israel could kill 10 million of theirs, and still lose. Israel can’t lost 10 million and survive. Israel is not the only nuke power, maybe Pakistan would fire theirs in suppor. Of their Muslim brothers. Maybe it would be chem or bio attacks... Who knows. All I believe at this time is that Obama would do nothing to help Israel. He would watch.

This may be the start of ww3.

God has promised to defend Israel from what will appear to be certain, unequivocal, absolute destruction and to utterly destroy and consume her enemies.

The framework for the fulfillment of this prophecy is emerging right before our eyes.

Interesting times.

Israel is doomed. All they have is YHWH (the maker of heaven and earth) to protect them. This satanic cult conceived in the depths of hell is going to send their demonic fury against Israel. They are going to wipe out the descendants of Isaac and prove that Ishmael is the rightful heir.

If the Islamists take over the government, they will immediately realize the same thing that the Iranians realized: The military can take them out. So the Iranians cleaned house while they could. I’m guessing the Egyptian military is smart enough not to let that happen again.

Invading Israel without Jordan and Syria would finish off the Egyptian military.

Whenever Mooseslimes start jumping in the the city square and firing AKs into the air, they are already defeated. Something about the jumping deprives their brain of oxygen and they cannot make rational decisions. ala Palestinians, Baghdad, etc.

When the MB takes over, the first thing they will do is purge the military

You're probably right. If they do, they'll ruin the Egyptian army, much like Stalin did to the Soviet army during the purges of the 1930's.

Seeing savages jumping up and down in the streets, yelling and screaming, doesn’t inspire any hope for a democratic, peaceful, cooperative, civilized solution to this mess.

Prediction: Don’t be surprised when magic mushrooms start blooming in the lands of Islam. No, these are not fungi. It is more likely sooner than later.
