The Muslim Brotherhood: the enemy in its own words

Commentary on the terrorist group that is set to emerge as a major player in the current Egyptian upheaval:

The Muslim Brotherhood: the enemy in its own words

Center for Security Policy | Jan 31, 2011
By Frank Gaffney, Jr.

As Egypt lurches towards the end of Hosni Mubarak's regime, one way or another - by "an orderly transition to democratic rule" (as Hillary Clinton delicately puts it), through violent overthrow or simply through the demise of the ailing 82-year-old president - much is unclear. One thing that should not be is that the Muslim Brotherhood is our enemy, and whatever role it plays in Egypt's future will be to our detriment.

Such clarity is readily available since the Brotherhood (MB or in Arabic, Ikhwan) has told us as much. Consider, for example, the mission statement for the MB found in one of its secret documents entitled "An Explanatory Memorandum on the General Strategic Goal for the Group in North America":

The Ikhwan must understand that their work in America is a kind of grand Jihad in eliminating and destroying the Western civilization from within and 'sabotaging' its miserable house by their hands and the hands of the believers so that it is eliminated and God's religion is made victorious over all other religions.

As a blue-ribbon group of national security experts convened by the Center for Security Policy, "Team B II" noted in their new best-seller Shariah: The Threat to America, the incompatability of the Ikhwan's agenda with our interests has been evident from its inception:

The Muslim Brotherhood was founded in Egypt in 1928. Its express purpose was two-fold: (1) to implement shariah worldwide, and (2) to re-establish the global Islamic State (caliphate). Therefore, al Qaeda and the MB have the same objectives. They differ only in the timing and tactics involved in realizing them.

We also know how the Brotherhood plans to pull off our destruction. Another MB document, this one undated, is called "Phases of the World Underground Movement Plan." It describes a five-installment program for achieving the triumph of shariah - together with a status report on the realization of several of the phases' goals:

Phase One: Discreet and secret establishment of leadership....


And there is much more of this MUST READ here, plus you will find more information on this group over at War on Terror News in a column called Who is the Muslim Brotherhood?.


These are dangerous times we live in. BE informed.

Democracy in the middle east? that would change the islamic culture, undermine and moderate the traditions and institutions with rights and gender issues etc. The US democratic influence would be more effective if it was adopted as a genuine intention..instead of democracy its supposed to be democratic process...
