U.S. 'held secret meeting with Muslim Brotherhood'
WND ^ | 2/1/2011 | Aaron Klein

JERUSALEM – The Egyptian government has information a diplomat at the U.S. embassy in Cairo secretly met yesterday with a senior leader of the Muslim Brotherhood, the nation's major Islamist opposition group, WND has learned.

The topic of the meeting was the future of Egypt following the "fall" of President Hosni Mubarak, an Egyptian intelligence official told WND.

The claim comes amid charges from Cairo that the Obama administration has been encouraging the protests rocking Egypt and targeting the rule of Mubarak, a key U.S. ally in the Middle East.

The Egyptian intelligence official told WND his government has information of a meeting that took place yesterday between Issam El-Erian, a senior leader of the Muslim Brotherhood, and Frank Wisner, a former U.S. ambassador to Egypt.

The Obama administration dispatched Wisner to Egypt this past weekend to report to the State Department and White House a general sense of the situation in the embattled country.

The Egyptian intelligence official speaking to WND said the meeting took place inside the American embassy in Cairo

The U.S. State Department would  neither confirm nor deny the report.

The Muslim Brotherhood seeks to spread Islam around the world, in large part using nonviolent means. Hamas and al-Qaida are violent Brotherhood offshoots.

The latest information is not the first charge by the Egyptian government that the Obama administration has been working with or encouraging the opposition to Mubarak.

Last week, a senior Egyptian diplomat stated the Egyptian government suspects elements of the current uprising there, particularly political aspects, are being coordinated with the U.S. State Department and Obama administration.

The senior Egyptian diplomat told WND the Mubarak regime suspects the U.S. has been aiding protest planning by Mohamed ElBaradei, who is seen as one of the main opposition leaders in Cairo.

My stomach is already turned — the election of Hussein was a surrender to Islamic terror.

I woudn’t be surprised if Obama was a card carrying member of the Muslim Brotherhood.

I would not be surprisedat all that he has been involved in instigating this mess.

The first item to remember is that Obama is adrift in a rudderless boat. He thinks that the solution is “Can’t we all just get along”

To deliver the message “to get along” he must speak to the parties.

In diplomat speak it is called meddling

Obama sent Frank Wisner.

His claim to fame? Board member of Enron Subsidiary.

That’s all we need - someone from failed and fraudulent company background representing us.

This looks so much like Carter all over again. It certainly seems that “The Zero” has decided to support islam all over the globe.

Now, more than ever, the media’s purposeful negligence in reporting anything at all about the first 46 years of Obama’s life, and who influenced him, is beyond criminal. For all we know, this guy wants to impose shariah law on this nation. We must all inform people that they have been told nothing about this guy Obama and the people around him. Do so with fact and not emotion because all the facts we need to inform people are there, whether it be youtube, these marxist’s own printed words, .......

This is Obama’s master plan to encircle and destroy Israel. Perhaps we should be consulting some other source for what comes next. (Revelations?)

I won’t get excited about this until it’s sourced by someone other than WND.

Remember, don’t use the term birth cert. ask for college records or something like that. We knew what Bush and Kerry got for grades.

The media has painted the bc people as whackos.
