Clinton cautiously welcomes Brotherhood talks
AFP ^ | Feb. 6, 2011

US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton cautiously welcomed Sunday the Muslim Brotherhood's involvement in political dialogue in Egypt, saying Washington would "wait and see" how talks develop.

"Today we learned the Muslim Brotherhood decided to participate, which suggests they at least are now involved in the dialogue that we have encouraged," Clinton told National Public Radio (NPR) from Germany.

"We're going to wait and see how this develops, but we've been very clear about what we expect."

Vice President Omar Suleiman met on Sunday with opposition groups including the Muslim Brotherhood, a well-organised Islamist movement that has long been officially banned from Egyptian politics, the official MENA news agency said.

The talks are aimed at discussing democratic reforms leading to elections to replace President Hosni Mubarak after almost two weeks of mass protests against the 82-year-old's rule.

Some Western observers have expressed concern the Brotherhood could sweep to power and institute an Islamist regime that would be no more democratic and might break Egypt's close alliance with Washington.

Isn’t the “Brotherhood” sexist? I think Hillary should take this on. Make them heel.

OK, let's see what they had to say from a story I posted earlier today......

Abdel Monem Aboul Fotouh, a senior member of the opposition Muslim Brotherhood which joined the talks despite the fact it is officially banned, said the government statement represented "good intentions but does not include any solid changes".

Before the meetings, the Muslim Brotherhood made clear it would insist on Mubarak's immediate ouster.

When you dictate terms before you even sit down, that's not dialogue.

What,can any American do to stop its Government from negotiating with the Terrorists who spawned A Qaeda and 9/11?

How can we hold these public officials to account for this, this treason to those dead souls?

Yes I just bet Hillery is autious.LOL.

This whole fiasco was created by Obama, and now this is the close. Egypt will become Islamofascistly democratic. Does any one see the Oxymoronic aspect.There is no such thing as Islamofasccist Democracy. Its not possible. Hillery just doesn’t get it. Mubarak should be allowed to continue and groom a suitable successor.Or there will be war.And this time the USA will NOT help Israel. or the USA will “appear” to help Israel, but NOT.

If you want to see how this is a set up, just read it and weep, but outrage is better:
