I've Been Thinking:

Yesterday the United States officially changed its policy toward the Muslim Brotherhood of Egypt. Now the US may engage in direct discussions with the Muslim Brotherhood.

Until now official US policy toward the Muslim Brotherhood was that they would talk only to Egyptian parliamentarians who ran and were elected as independents.

This is a ginormous change in US policy.

The Muslim Brotherhood was the brainchild for both al Qaeda and Hamas. They are major supporters and financial contributors to Hamas. The Brotherhood stands for the exact opposite of freedom and democracy. It represents the Egyptian idea of establishing an Islamic caliphate in Egypt.

The Brotherhood was created in 1928 by Hassan al Banna. It had almost no members until the organization linked with Hitler and the Third Reich. The fascism of Hitlerism blended with Islamic Extremism created a unique creation in the Brotherhood. The secular side of this philosophy was found in the Baath parties in Syria and Iraq. Throughout the decades the Brotherhood has preached the mass murder of all who are not like them.

It is a grave error that the United States is making by lending credibility to the Brotherhood and approaching them as if they were any other party. They are not. They are dangerous. They stand for everything we oppose.
