Egyptian Press: The Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt Is Going the Way of Hamas in Gaza
2007-06-27

#3  Unfortunately though, whereas Hamas is a gnat, the Muslim Brotherhood is an elephant. And though the Brotherhood has spun off lots of terrorist factions, the organization itself has not yet joined the fray.

So for the time being it is an unnecessary fight. If needs be, we can pick a fight with them later, but right now we have our hands full.

If they start to be annoying, we can encourage the Egyptian government to crack down on them some more. But we should bide our time.

#2  Islamism is a disease, much like jock itch, it must be obliterated. It threatens every sane person on the planet.

#1  "Hamas is the Brotherhood of Palestine - the Palestine branch [of the Brotherhood]. They hold a place at the top of the list of members of the international organization of the banned group [i.e. the Muslim Brotherhood]. This means that this is a worldwide movement that does not recognize national identity, the flag, or the anthem. They do not recognize a homeland that must be defended and for which one must give one's life. The homeland for them includes any plot of land on Earth on which the flag of the Brotherhood may be flownÂ… Hamas is the same thing. Whoever does not share their faith is [considered] outside of Islam, and he is treated like one of the infidelsÂ…

"For Hamas and the Brotherhood, democracy is just dancing with Satan. The people who harbor the most enmity for democracy are those same groups who think that they have a divine mandate to rule and to implement the shari'a they see fit, and not Allah's shari'a. Democracy for them is just a means to take power; afterwards, they whip democracy with lashes and behead it with the swordÂ… No one can raise their head and speak up without becoming an infidel who must be punished. Their democracy is worse than dictatorshipÂ…

[emphasis added]

Liberalhawk, I hope you're reading this and possibly beginning to reconsider your support for American negotiations with Egypt's Muslim Brotherhood. They are the enemy.
