It is profoundly disconcerting to read media reports of the unseemly competition between the US and Western governments to curry favor with the Muslim Brotherhood in the wake of its electoral victory in Egypt. There are chilling parallels between such behavior and the disastrous European policy of appeasing the Nazis which paved the way for World War II.
What those attempting to embrace the Muslim Brotherhood fail to comprehend is that this organization represents one of the most fanatical and dangerous of the radical Islamist groups in the region, with a dark record of violence and terrorism imbedded in its DNA. It is rabidly anti-Western, anti-Christian and anti-Semitic, is committed to imposing sharia law and a global caliphate – and willing to employ any means to further its objectives.
To this day, the Brotherhood credo remains: “Allah is our objective, the Koran is our constitution, the Prophet is our leader, jihad is our way and death for the sake of Allah is the highest of our aspirations.”
In Brotherhood eyes Osama bin Laden was a “sheikh” and they condemned the US for assassinating him. A few weeks ago the current Brotherhood leader, Muhammad al-Badi, proclaimed that the genocidal Hamas, which the Brotherhood spawned, should be regarded as a role model for Islamic piety.
If the terms evil and criminal have any meaning, they would surely apply to the Muslim Brotherhood.
Today, aware of the desperate need for US and Western economic support, it tactically moves into a duplicitous “stealth jihad” mode, speaking with a forked tongue and feeding the foreign media with self-portraits of moderation that are totally divorced from reality.

"The mosques are our barracks, the domes our helmets,
the minarets our bayonets and the faithful our soldiers."
“...death for the sake of Allah is the highest of our aspirations.”
I’m fine with them achieving that aspiration.
You could wave a red flag before the western politicians and most still would not see the danger. They think by "inclusion" of the Brother-HOODS they will somehow "civilize" them into western thinking. That is not going to happen though they will give lip-service to it for however long it takes til they are positioned.
Egyptian people have lost their country now...and they will see how from year to year.... now their country will be taken into the dumps. There best years are behind them now, no matter how the west tries to imagine otherwise.
Unfortunately they don’t achieve it just by killing themselves, they have to kill the rest of us with them.
“Unfortunately they don’t achieve it just by killing themselves, they have to kill the rest of us with them.”
Oh, we should be able to alter that equation.
Yep, I think we need to get them onto the interstate 235 ASAP.
It's more of a replay than a parallel. Well, the same thing is meant, but really it's just unbelievable.
“Yep, I think we need to get them onto the interstate 235 ASAP.”
I don’t quite follow you.
Great article, thanks for posting.
You bet!
