President Obama and the Muslim Brotherhood

August 4, 2013 Subject : President Obama and the Muslim Brotherhood The credo of the Muslim Brotherhood is, "Allah is our objective. The Prophet is our leader. Qu'ran is our law. Jihad is our way. Dying in the way of Allah is our biggest hope." That objective and their history should make them enemy Number One to the United States and all freedom loving countries. Yet, In his first speech to the Egyptian parliament, President Obama insisted that members of the outlawed Muslim Brotherhood sit in a prominent first row position.

A number of the Obama administration "outreach" officials were members of the Muslim Student Alliance which was an offshoot of the Muslim Brotherhood in America. The Holy Land Foundation was found guilty of funneling money to Hamas ( a Muslim Brotherhood affiliate) and CAIR was named an un indicted co conspirator. Yet, weeks into his first term, Attorney General Holder, an Obama appointee, dropped the investigation into CAIR and other un indicted co conspirators. It was reported that during his first term, President Obama spoke to Prime Minister Erdogan of Turkey more than any other foreign leader. Erdogan is a vocal and active supporter of Hamas.

Witness how easy it was for the Mavi Marmara to leave Turkey headed for the "blockade" of Gaza. There are, literally, thousands of acts of the Muslim Brotherhood that shows they aim to destroy America.(Condemning America for killing Bin Laden was a minor one.) The only reasons I deduce for the Obama administration to continue to placate the Brotherhood, are very unflattering to the administration. Even today, it is reported that Nicholas Burns is meeting with high officials of the Muslim Brotherhood. Does anyone have reasons that make the Obama administration actions, clever, good for America, etc.?
