On Thursday, U.S. State Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland reacted to a statement by the Deputy Leader of the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood that it would “not recognize Israel under any circumstances” with a mind-bogglingly naïve reassurance that we shouldn’t worry:
“We’ve seen this press report. I would say that it is one member of the Muslim Brotherhood. We have had other assurances from the party with regard to their commitment not only to universal human rights, but to the international obligations that the Government of Egypt has undertaken.”
Riiight. So, according to the State Department, we should believe the private assurances from the Muslim Brotherhood that they’ll respect the peace treaty with Israel instead of the public statements of its top leaders?
The Muslim Brotherhood is already setting the stage to end the treaty. The same leader that said the Brotherhood wouldn’t recognize Israel said that it would honor current treaties during the “interim” period. After that, the peace treaty with Israel will be submitted to a referendum.
The writing is on the wall. If the ruling Egyptian military council actually lets the Islamists take over (a big if), the Muslim Brotherhood will tell the U.S., “Don’t blame us. We honored the commitment, just like we told you we would. The people chose to cancel it.”
Am I the only one that sees this as obvious?
Is that akin to “Hitler was misunderstood?”
Yes. Many SS said that after the war.
They will say that he loved his dogs..
Sooo,
Which do YOU think is more antiAmerican,
the Moose limb brotherhood or the U.S. State dept?
I’m thinking tie.
Looks like we are going to see what they will be like soon enough when they take power in Egypt. If they are as bad as people think—they will start killing Coptic Christians and burning churches right off. Israel better start getting ready for another war soon. Still, they are patterned on the Nazi Party and may show some respect for law and order in order to hold power and keep US dollars coming in—They may be motivated by a desire for power rather than hate. If they go back to barbarism—all ties between US and Egypt should end.
Sure they do. Just like hell.
Do you mean the State Department that refuses to identify radical Islam as the perpetrator of Ft. Hood and labels citizens from the heartland of America as clingers and terrorists? The same administration that has zipped its lip from proclaiming worldwide attacks on Christians as evil, barbaric and despicable?There is no question the average American believes democrats have turned this nation upside down and inside-out.

Snips:
The 86 page study [Get Full Report Here] reflects nothing so much as the product of multiculturally biased self-censorship - an unwillingness to pursue the obvious connections because of offending protected classes. As a result it's really hard to imagine this document being taken seriously anywhere outside of government. In this case "close enough for government work" doesn't work.
There are no references, no mentions, as to what one might assume would be key words in analyzing this unprecedented breach of security - al-Qaeda, jihad, Islamic fundamentalism, Islamic radicalism, fanaticism. Islamic extremism appears in a single place, unfortunately only as a footnote and there referring to the title of a 2007 FBI report, "Countering Violent Islamic Extremism."
Key statements are transparently false "...Religious fundamentalism alone is not a risk factor; most fundamentalist groups are not violent and religious based violence is not confined to members of fundamentalist groups." [p 80-81].
