THE INDEPENDENT SENTINEL
It was not long ago when Rashad al-Bayumi, the Brotherhood’s second in command, said the peace treaty between Israel and Egypt must be canceled because it “offends the Arabs’ dignity and destroys the interests of Egypt and other Arab states.”
The Brotherhood said they would not seek the presidency of Egypt and we all know that changed quickly. Their candidate, who is now President, Mohammed Morsi, is allegedly anti-Israel and he is an Islamist.
The next video is from June 12th of this year, but it’s still relevant, especially since it came from a left wing cable station -
Left wing apologists in our government refuse to believe the truth about what is happening in Egypt and about what the Arab Spring has become. Why they ever thought it would result in Jeffersonian democracy, I can’t say.
John Kerry, Chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, said we mustn’t engage in “prejudging” the Muslim Brotherhood.
“During my recent visits to Cairo, I’ve had two candid discussions with the new president. He’s acknowledged that the central issue to Egypt’s future is economic. His words suggest he understands the gravity of the challenges facing Egypt,” Sen. John Kerry (D-Mass.) said.
The media continually emphasizes Morsi’s U.S. education and the fact that two of his children were born in the U.S. and have citizenship by birth. So what?
Shafwat Hijazi, an Imam and TV preacher is one of Morsi’s representatives. In 2012, Safwat launched the Muslim Brotherhood candidate Mohammad Morsi’s Campaign. In his speech to a crowd of hundreds of thousands of Egyptians, Safwat emphasized that Morsi will lead Egypt’s campaign to restore the “United States of the Arabs” with Jerusalem as its capital, and urged listeners to “awake Jews from their slumber” and to march as martyrs toward Jerusalem-
Hijazi said at a rally for Morsi, “We are seeing the dream of the Islamic Caliphate come true at the hands of Mohammed Morsi.” [Front page Magazine]
The White House congratulated Egypt’s president-elect Mohamed Morsi on his victory a few days ago, calling it a “milestone” in the country’s transition to democracy.[I wish someone would help B.H.Obama understand the meaning of democracy.]
