4 2). Congress renews push... Renews push?!!!-1 July 13, 2018 by BareNakedIslam 10 Comments Lawmakers on Capitol Hill are renewing a years-long push (since 2015) to designate the international Muslim Brotherhood organization as a terrorist organization due to its support for terror organizations that threaten U.S. security interests across the globe, according to conversations with U.S. officials spearheading the effort. The Muslim Brotherhood has already been banned in several Muslim countries including Egypt, United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Russia, and Bahrain. U.S. Muslim activist organizations and front groups for the Brotherhood such as the Council on American Islamic Relations, (CAIR), have galvanized their supporters to oppose a Muslim Brotherhood designation. In early 2017, groups affiliated with CAIR and its supporters launched a series of attacks on Sen. Ted Cruz (R., Texas), who, at the time, www-scannedretina.com - 4 of 10 - arnie@arnierosner.com

5 was pushing his own effort to formally designate the Brotherhood as a terror entity. An error occurred. Try watching this video on or enable JavaScript if it is disabled in your browser. CAIR, long accused of being part of the Muslim Brotherhood s network in America. has been caught trading in lies as part of an effort to ensure the Brotherhood is not designated as a terrorist entity in the United States. CAIR, named by the U.S. government as part of a vast network supporting the terror group Hamas, in 2017, launched an effort to block a bill that would formally www-scannedretina.com - 5 of 10 - arnie@arnierosner.com

6 designated the Muslim Brotherhood as a terror organization. Many other countries, including Israel and Egypt, have already approved similar legislation. A 2009 American Civil Liberties Union review of Muslim charities in the crosshairs found that Bush s executive order effectively allows the government to shut down an organization without notice or hearing and on the basis of classified evidence, and without any judicial review. Below is CAIR s chief spokesjihadist, Nihad Awad, spewing his usual lies about not being part of the Muslim Brotherhood and having no idea why his group has been designated a terrorist group by the United Arab Emirates. your browser.

7 Free Beacon The latest congressional effort to target the Muslim Brotherhood will kick off early Wednesday, when lawmakers on the House s Subcommittee on National Security gather for a hearing to examine the threat that the Muslim Brotherhood and its affiliates pose to the United States and its interests and how to most effectively counter it, including potential next steps for U.S. policy, according to the committee. The hearing is expected to set the stage for Congress to follow through on efforts that begun in 2015 to convince the Obama administration to designate the Muslim Brotherhood as a terror group following its violent, and eventually failed, takeover in Egypt. The State Department has opposed formal designation of the Brotherhood for some time due to efforts by the Obama administration to make diplomatic overtures to the group, particularly during its coup in Egypt. Although the Trump administration has designated various offshoots of the Brotherhood as global terror groups, the organization as a whole has escaped U.S. scrutiny. www-scannedretina.com - 7 of 10 - arnie@arnierosner.com

8 Rep. Ron DeSantis (R., Fla.), the National Security Subcommittee s chair, told the Washington Free Beacon that U.S. policy has failed to address the Brotherhood s radical behavior and support for terror groups. Multiple countries, such as Egypt, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates, have already designated the Brotherhood as a terror group. The Muslim Brotherhood is a malevolent force, and American policy needs to reflect this truth, DeSantis told the Free Beacon. Designating the Muslim Brotherhood as a foreign terrorist organization is overdue. Nathan Lean, pro-muslim author of the 2012 book The Islamophobia Industry, said designating the Muslim Brotherhood a terrorist group could give government officials www-scannedretina.com - 8 of 10 - arnie@arnierosner.com

9 cover to effectively dismantle U.S. Muslim groups. The allegations that the Muslim Brotherhood has ties to CAIR as well as to groups like the Muslim American Society, the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA) and the International Institute of Islamic Thought stem largely from a single discredited document titled An Explanatory Memorandum on the General Strategic Goal for the Brotherhood in North America. The memorandum, found during a 2004 FBI raid of a Virginia home, was written by a Muslim Brotherhood member named Mohamed Akram Adlouni in An error occurred. Try watching this video on or enable JavaScript if it is disabled in your browser. Key U.S. allies such as Turkey and Qatar continue to work alongside the Muslim Brotherhood, sparking concern among lawmakers such as DeSantis who view these countries as working at a crossroads with the Trump administration as it works to eradicate radical forces in the Middle East. The Muslim Brotherhood is a radical Islamist organization that has generated a network of affiliates in over 70 countries, the House committee notes on its website promoting the upcoming hearing. In addition to hearing from Muslim Brotherhood experts on the group s ongoing support for radical terror groups, lawmakers participating in the hearing will keep a close eye on exposing the roles that both Qatar and Turkey play in bolstering the group s radical www-scannedretina.com - 9 of 10 - arnie@arnierosner.com

10 ideology, according to those briefed on the hearing. While the Trump administration, as early as January 2017, indicated that it was considering a terror designation for the entire Muslim Brotherhood, little action has been taken, motivating Congress to lead the charge. Past efforts to designate the Muslim Brotherhood failed to gain traction during the Obama administration due to its explicit policy of working with the group in Egypt, a policy that was met with much protest in the region. your browser.
