EU Follows Obama into the Brotherhood Abyss

Pages: 1 2

Catherine Ashton, EU foreign policy chief

 

Following quickly after the revelation that the Obama administration had resolved to establish contact with the Muslim Brotherhood, the European Union has announced that it, too, is interested in talking with the group. Michael Mann, a spokesperson for EU foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton, explained: “We are always open to dialogue with anyone who is interested in democracy.” Ashton thus becomes the latest in a long line of Western officials who have confused democracy with the practice of voting itself, and ignored the manifest fact that the Muslim Brotherhood is dedicated to ideals that all free societies should oppose.

Among those officials also are a great many at the highest levels in Washington, where wishful thinking about the Brotherhood (and other matters Islamic) not only prevails, but is the guiding force in formulating Middle East policy. After all, it was the spectacularly clueless intelligence chief James Clapper who labeled the group “largely secular,” demonstrating abject ignorance not only of the meaning of the word “Muslim” in the group’s name, but of its own stated goals and agenda, which have been consistent since it was founded.

Contrary to claims that it is a moderate organization, the Muslim Brotherhood is actually the prototypical Islamic supremacist, pro-Sharia group of the modern age. It was founded in Egypt in 1928 by Hasan al-Banna, who decried the abolition of the Caliphate in 1924 for separating “the state from religion in a country [Turkey] which was until recently the site of the Commander of the Faithful.” Al-Banna dedicated the Brotherhood to restoring the caliphate and imposing Islamic law around the world. His message began and ended with Islam:

We summon you to Islam, the teachings of Islam, the laws of Islam and the guidance of Islam, and if this smacks of “politics” in your eyes, then it is our policy. And if the one summoning you to these principles is a “politician,” then we are the most respectable of men, God be praised, in politics . . . Islam does have a policy embracing the happiness of this world. . . . We believe that Islam is an all-embracing concept which regulates every aspect of life, adjudicating on every one of its concerns and prescribing for it a solid and rigorous order.

Al-Banna wrote in 1934 that “it is a duty incumbent on every Muslim to struggle towards the aim of making every people Muslim and the whole world Islamic, so that the banner of Islam can flutter over the earth and the call of the Muezzin can resound in all the corners of the world: God is greatest [Allahu akbar]!”

Brynjar Lia, the historian of the Muslim Brotherhood movement, explained: “Quoting the Qur’anic verse ‘And fight them till sedition is no more, and the faith is God’s’ [Sura 2:193], the Muslim Brothers urged their fellow Muslims to restore the bygone greatness of Islam and to re-establish an Islamic empire. Sometimes they even called for the restoration of ‘former Islamic colonies’ in Andalus (Spain), southern Italy, Sicily, the Balkans and the Mediterranean islands.”

    "Know thine enemy"…that oft-quoted maxim of warfare, has been completely lost upon the Western elite. Their blind hope is that wishful thinking – that Islam and freedom are not incompatible – will somehow spare us the ravages of civilizational conflict. As much as anything else, it's a failure of leadership.

    Allen West, your country needs you.

      excellent points. spot on!

    Obama knows he is working with a limited time window. If he wants to participate in a UN attack on Israel, the orders have to go out to our armed forces by the end of his regeime in Jan 2013. For that, the proto-caliphate governments in Egypt, Yemen, and Syria have to gain and consolidate their power quickly.

    • johnnywoods

      I don`t call him Barack al Obama for nothing.

  • Pekah

    Obama is a muslim, so he is trying to protect the interest of islam.

  • Fred Dawes

    The EUROPEANS Will be in the camp of islam within 10 years or before the job of real Americans is to plan on how to take our all muslims at one time both here and in the old country or as I like to call it the low life lands. We as real Americans understand that you can not live side by side with your enemy

  • ze-ev ben jehudah

    The signs from today are the same from the 1930ths.,First the Jews will suffer
    and then the rest will follow in their path.But at least they will do it the halal way.
    I recently heard a American Professor of genetics say that within 25 years we
    will be able to live for a 1000 years.I think we will live no longer than one year
    before the monkey from Iran starts trowing nuclear goodies around the globe.
    and the others will follow the end of mankind just like the dino's 6000.000 yrs
    ago. Like Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy I will say"Good bay!!! Good bey Goo!!!!
    Uch…..Uch Oh boy it's getting dark and it is not even night???

      If HE will.

    Is this the decline and fall of the West? When the EU foreign policy chief says "We are open to dialogue with anyone interested in democracy", referring to the MB…..you know she is lost ….totally lost.

  • StephenD

    Democracy to them means The Majority Rule. Nothing more. Enough Islamists, enough pro-Sharia folks and they'll be "protected" as having voted the type government they want. From that point forward, we in the West can take credit (blame) for helping end individual human rights world wide.

    • Peter

      Correct, StephenD. But please remember that democracy IS, essentially, majority (read MOB) rule, which is why the word democracy appears exactly nowhere within our founding documents. Our form of limited republican government is specifically designed to protect the smallest minority (the individual) from the overbearing majority. In our system we have democracy only in the sense that when matters ARE put to a vote that the majority wins. However, our constitution was put into place to delineate the areas that aren't even open to a vote because "Congress shall make no law" that violate the rights of the individual.

      • Amused

        Oh what a crock of BULLSHEET ! What f—ing hypocrisy .

        • StephenD

          Please explain. He seems to have made sense here. Show where he got it wrong…or shut up.

  • BobSmith101

    Would you wear a T-shirt with a Mohammad cartoon printed on it?

    You might in Montana. Don’t try it in Mecca.

    Why?

    Because, Islam trains a small number of its most devout believers it’s OK to kill. And Islamic killers have been trained to kill anyone who insults Allah and/or Mohammad.

    In Montana you’d have a good chance none of these Islamic killers would see you.

    In Mecca you wouldn’t last five minutes. One of Islam’s killers would come from out of nowhere and kill you. It is that simple.

    You don’t believe me? Ask any Muslim!

    • Fred Dawes

      Yes i total believe you, in fact two days ago i was playing a game and was making fun of islam i was cut off the game and have my 30th fatwa against my life, I LOVE IT.

    • RatkoMladicFan

      It is not "small number of its most devout believers", quran teaches _all muslims_ to kill non-muslims.

      It is just that some muslims are still human and don't want to kill. But being humane to non-muslims is heresy in Islam.

  • Harvey Apple

    Bowmanave & Pekah, you are both correct.
    Obama is orchestrating “JIHAD”, from the White House, at the expense of the military & taxpayers.
    The Judges have prostituted themselves,& sold out the Constitution, to protect and shelter Obama from “DISCOVER!”
    Our elected “ELITE” refuse to admit that we have a(n) illegal alien, Marxist, Muslim “SABOTEUR” in the White House with his cheerleader, Hillary, a willing accomplice to “TREASON!”
    The “ACE” up Obama’s sleeve is “THE ILLEGAL ALIEN VOTE!”
    This is why Obama has opened the borders to the illegal alien invasion
    and why he arrested illegal alien deportation!
    Obama will cajole the Congress for “AMNESTY” or simply issue a(n) Executive Order to grant “Amnesty” just prior to the 2012 election.
    Obama knows the illegal votes will TSUNAMI the citizen vote and guarantee total Democrat and his reelection!
    Immediate IMPEACHMENT and ARREST are the only weapons left, to We The People, to halt the treasonous, illegal, Obama “JUGGERNAUT”, and the plunder, looting, and rape of Lady Liberty, by Obama and his disciples!

    The problem is our entire federal government has been completely hijacked and co-opted by delusional leftists, and especially our State Department and even our military establishment. Hence, as a result defeating America and the delusional Euroloons is like stealing candy from a baby.

    • Fred Dawes

      The real problem is that the european people have not used a rope on the political Leftists and the evil problem is here inside the USA, "We the people", have not just removed our enemies by the vote and the rope.
      It is time we the people started to understand our real enemy and that real enemy is here not in some monkey hole in some back water country, the enemy is the political so called leaders not our system of laws or ideals.
      The boys in washington AND in the state house of each state all want power for life all hate freedom and laws of a nation state build on the ideals of liberty and build under the ideals of LAWS.

  • LindaRivera

    Both American and UK/European leaders are fully aware of the Muslim Brotherhood goal of destruction of our civilization and global Islamic conquest:

    "The Muslim Brotherhood “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 Allah’s religion is made victorious over all other religions.”

    In embracing the Muslim Brotherhood, American and UK/EU leaders reveal their APPROVAL of the Muslim Brotherhood goals. It is treason. Americans, Brits and Europeans are horribly betrayed by our rulers. If these same Western leaders had ruled during the Holocaust, Hitler would have won. Easily.

    • Fred Dawes

      The political pigs understand that all Western Ideals must be removed and the fools think some how THE Rats can keep power over the people, it is Insane but the system boys here and in the European State's are totally stupit.

  • Ghostwriter

    Great,it seems that the EU is following President Obama into his fantasy world of appeasing the Islamofascists. They believe if they do this,they'll leave everyone else alone. Unfortunately,they won't.

  • Vivi Andersen

    WE, most of the Europeans, KNOW our politicans` are, most of them, traitors to their own countries and peoples.

    And we KNOW that we some day will have to go to war against islam and its Western followers.

    We do not want our children, grandchildren, their children and so on and so forth, to be Dhimmies !

    • Carol

      Vivi so how are you going to stop it? The majority of the world (I include America in this) comes across as the three monkeys (hear no evil, see no evil, speak no evil). It is like we don't believe what is happening.

      I just read an article that: An international interfaith conference has revealed that 105,000 Christians are being killed every year simply because of their faith. The shocking figures revealed at the “International Conference on Inter-religious dialogue between Christians, Jews and Muslims,” held in Hungary, show that a Christian is killed every five minutes somewhere in the world because of their faith.

      Nothing is done or said about this the world is mum and all they can focus on are the poor palestinians who aren't really palestinians. The Jewish people in Israel were the palestinians until Arafat started calling the arabs that. Check out the 1948 Palestine Post which was all about the Jewish State of Israel being born http://info.jpost.com/1998/Supplements/1948/origi

  • Brujo Blanco

    It was mentioned that we should know our enemy. I would like to add that we must first acknowledge that we have an enemy. Then we must identify the enemy and so what we have to and neutralize the threat. Islamic whackos will tell us that they want to kill us and that warning is not acknowledged as it should be. When threats are made they should be believed.

  • Carol

    Reminds me of an article I read yesterday about useful idiots. The EU and Obama that is along with the rest of the "can't we all get along" left. http://www.israelnationalnews.com/Articles/Articl
    Why can't they understand that the Muslims mean what they say. The left are like kids that plug their ears when they don't want to hear and they cry nananana can't hear you.

    Catherine Ashton, what a sneaky looking thing she looks like, it is hard to understand
    the look, is it 'please kill me last' or is it ' In the death rag, please, do me first'
    or is it 'Oh dominate me and be rough", kind of sick and they will not get it until
    they are bent over a prayer rug and being beaten. In this sick world there are those
    who see whips and chains as their go to frothing vivache and Islam has what
    they want………………..There is and attraction to evil which ultimately destroys and
    that we see this being played out in our elected officials, we see how far out of
    order our political life actually is and we must make changes or have these foul
    individuals drag us down into a pit……………………………………………….William
