The United States has become a tool of Muslim Brotherhood expansionism. Obama helped the Brotherhood overthrow governments by political means, but now the Brotherhood is demanding military intervention to help a Brotherhood/Al Qaeda coalition take over Syria. And if Obama goes along with it, he will have turned the United States military into the mercenaries of the Muslim Brotherhood.
Americans have died because of Obama’s dirty deal with the Muslim Brotherhood. The question now is whether Obama will send American soldiers and pilots to die for the Brotherhood.
In the spring of 2009, Obama went down to Cairo. Obama had insisted on Muslim Brotherhood attendance at a speech that was part apology and part abandonment. The apology was for American power and the abandonment was of American allies.
Obama was following through on an idea that had long been an article of faith on the left. The idea was that the United States had invested in a defunct status quo and that our biggest problems were our allies. The only way out was to toss them all overboard.
Generations of diplomats had griped from their walled compounds in Riyadh, Kuwait City or Doha that many of our problems in the region would go away if Israel somehow went away. But this was bigger. It involved dumping every single allied government in the region to start fresh with new governments elected through popular democracy and enjoying popular support. It would be a new beginning. And a new beginning was also the title of the Cairo speech.
The idea wasn’t new, but it was right up there with proposals to unilaterally abandon our nuclear arsenal or dedicate ten percent of the budget to foreign aid; ideas that a lot of diplomats liked, but that they knew no one would ever be crazy enough to pull the trigger on.
And then Obama tried to pull the trigger on two out of three. What he wanted was for the Brotherhood to win so that it could make the War on Terror irrelevant.
As much as the advocates of smart and soft power insisted that Islamic terrorism had nothing to do with Islam, they knew better. They knew that Al Qaeda wanted to create Islamic states that would form into a Caliphate. Central to its thinking was that it would have to fight to create these states. But what if the Caliphate could be created without a war?
To make it happen, all America had to do was surrender the Middle East.
The attacks of September 11 had created a serious crisis for liberal policymakers. Unlike the bombing of the World Trade Center on Clinton’s watch, these attacks could not be ignored or swept under the rug. But neither could liberals accept a clash of civilizations that would destroy their multicultural society or an extended series of international police actions that would militarize the country.
The logic that led from September 11 to the Cairo speech to Benghazi was impeccable. It combined the clean sweep theory with grand scale appeasement.
“Islamic terrorists are carrying out attacks because they want their countries to be ruled by Islam. Why not help them to do it?”
The United States withdrew support from its allies. It apologized, surrendered and waited for the takeovers to begin. When the dictators wouldn’t step aside voluntarily, the bombers were sent in.
The grand bargain with the Muslim Brotherhood was supposed to end the War on Terror by trading the Muslim Brotherhood’s brand of political Islamism for Al Qaeda’s campaign of terror. It was as if FDR had struck a deal with the Bolsheviks to get rid of the Trotskyites (and indeed such a bargain did operate briefly during WW2).
Obama’s grand bargain came to a squalid end on September 11. In Benghazi, the Muslim Brotherhood militia that was supposed to protect the mission instead sold it out and abandoned it.
The Brotherhood would accept American support, but it wouldn’t stop terrorist attacks against America. Its front groups in America would not cooperate with the FBI, its governments and militias in the Middle East would not protect American diplomatic facilities.
On September 11, the American embassy in Cairo was besieged by protesters with the support of the Muslim Brotherhood. In Tunis, the new Islamist government turned its back on the embassy, forcing Hillary Clinton to plead with President Marzouki to send out his own presidential guard to defend it.
In Benghazi and Cairo, Al Qaeda attacked while the Brotherhood played dumb. In Syria, Brotherhood and Al Qaeda militias worked together, while Brotherhood spokesmen insisted that they were the only secular alternative. In the United States, Al Qaeda terrorists carried out their “lone wolf” attacks while the Brotherhood front groups which ran most of the Islamic organizations in America claimed not to know what was going on.
The Muslim Brotherhood’s victories did not make Al Qaeda go away. Instead the two found common ground while playing a game of Good Terrorist and Bad Terrorist. Or as the mainstream media calls it, Moderates and Extremists.
Obama had stacked all of our allies in the Middle East that didn’t have enough oil to matter and bet them at the Brotherhood’s casino on a single spin of the wheel. And the Brotherhood took it all.
But Obama is still at the casino stacking up more chips. The next round of the game moves to Syria. Instead of the Brotherhood using its new power to protect the United States, the United States is expected to get involved in another Iraq in order to help the Brotherhood take over Syria to complete the Islamist triumphs of the Arab Spring.
We the people need some representation in Washington.
Lemme get this right:
US military people are in fact fighting to create a Caliphate for the Muslim Brotherhood. But the thing that gets US Jews REALLLLLLY mad is if a US military person talks about *Jesus*.
Right?
Destroy Israel = OK, Jesus talk = Not OK
??????
Too late. That horse has left the stable.
In a breathtaking kind of jujitsu, in the aftermath of the September 2001 attacks, our government agencies opened themselves up to Muslim Brotherhood and is now riddled with them.
And we have taken to toppling mid-east governments and putting MB into power.
There is some cleverness to it, using Al Qaeda to fight old enemies like Khadafi, using them to steal Syria from Iran's camp. But while they will gladly accept our support they do not stay bought. Stevens probably knew the guys who killed him.
At the end of the day, having tried to pull Al Qaeda into our orbit, we find them more aggressively anti-American than before, and more confident. Instead of having a couple of failed states as launch pads like Afghanistan and Somalia, they now have whole governments. Libya, Egypt, vast sections of Africa, and the greatest military power on the face of the earth bending over backwards to appease and clear the way for them.
We switched sides in the war on terror. Muslim Brotherhood sits in the White House and they still hate us.
Would you add me to your ping list?
Well, I think you got most of the main characters, probably missed Jarrett. But, I looked at the second one and took it for John Boehner. I guess doing double duty on that one.
What laws do we actually have for punishing traitors?

Boehner is not and has not been up to the task of facing this.
McCain and Lindy have to sit this out, they couldn’t handle Clinton over a relatively silly affair while on the job, and they certainly are not up to this.
They are politicians and this is for statesmen.
Ditto Hannity. He’s jumping to conclusions in order to sound smart.
This is not over.
Did I read that the director of the CIA is muslim?
“The United States has become a tool of Muslim Brotherhood expansionism.

This anti-American, criminal, communist, Islamist administration turned our longtime allies in the Middle East to archenemies. “Civil war” in Syria resulted in close to 100,000 deaths and going strong. Assad’s Syria is the last bastion standing against soon-to-be a de facto Caliphate.
The brewing Egyptian revolt against Morsi and 0b0z0’s Ikhwan is brewing and nearing the boiling point. A civil war in Egypt will make Syria’s look like a picnic. The disastrous results for the stability of Jordan and Saudi Arabia are incalculable for the USA security.
Of course we don’t here much about the sentiment against 0b0z0’s “accomplishment” in the Middle East, i.e., installing the Ikhwan butchers as Caliphs.
Our military had better look at the enemy within more than the enemy abroad.
Indeed and how do we turn the ship of state back when enemy agents have taken over the Presidency and key elements of the government.
