The Global Threat of the Muslim Brotherhood

“…I've come here to Cairo to seek a new beginning between the United States and Muslims around the world, one based on mutual interest and mutual respect, and one based upon the truth that America and Islam are not exclusive and need not be in competition. Instead, they overlap, and share common principles -- principles of justice and progress; tolerance and the dignity of all human beings…Now part of this conviction is rooted in my own experience. I'm a Christian, but my father came from a Kenyan family that includes generations of Muslims.  As a boy, I spent several years in Indonesia and heard the call of the azaan at the break of dawn and at the fall of dusk.  As a young man, I worked in Chicago communities where many found dignity and peace in their Muslim faith.”

—Remarks by President Obama on “A NEW BEGINNING”, Cairo University, Cairo, Egypt, June 4, 2009. 

 During the so-called “Arab Spring” many Americans first heard about the Muslim Brotherhood (MB) during the Obama Administration-supported overthrow of the Egyptian government,which created an opportunity for the MB, the most powerful political force in Egypt to "get its nose under the government tent during the power vacuum created by the ousting of the Mubarak regime.  This doesn't look like there is going to be a "fairy tale progressive-style ending on this one.

After some cursory research on the MB, we can’t help but wonder whether this president and those in his administration are simply stupid or naive?  This may very well may go down in history as one of the biggest foriegn policy blunders of this century, but time will tell.

We’ll let you sort that out for yourselves after viewing this stunning speech by Andrew C. McCarthy of the Allan P. Kirby, Jr. Center for Constitutional Studies and Citizenship.
