Where are the Muslim Brotherhood and the Obama Administration Taking America?

-       In this article, published in the leading liberal pan Arab "Elaph”, Egyptian liberal writer Dr. Essam Abdallah exposes the influence of the Muslim Brotherhood within the Obama Administration and the campaign led by CAIR and its allies against Middle East Christians, US experts and American Muslim reformers. Abdallah's article is powerful evidence to a reckless policy of backing Islamists, perpetrated by the Obama Administration and its advisors on Islamic affairs.  The Editors. 
 
Disturbing reports are coming out of Washington, D.C. 
 
These reports reveal the depth of the below-the-surface coordination between the Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR), Hamas, Hezbollah, the Iranian regime and the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt, Syria, Tunisia, Libya and Jordan. This bloc of regimes and organizations is now becoming the greatest Islamist radical lobby ever to penetrate and infiltrate the White House, Congress, the State Department and the main decision making centers of the US government. All of this is happening at a time when the US government is going through its most strategically dangerous period in modern times because of its need to confront the Iranian Mullahs regime, which is expanding in the Middle East, as well as penetrating the United States, via powerful and influential allies.
 
It looks like the near future will uncover many surprises after the fall of the Gaddafi regime, as we realize more and more that the popular revolts in the Arab world - and the Obama Administration’s position towards them - were determined by political battles between various pressure groups in Washington.  Moreover, pressures by these lobbying groups have left an impact on the region's events, the last of which was the canceling of the visit of Maronite Patriarch Rahi to Washington. A number of Arab and Western news agencies have leaked that one of “those who sought to cancel this visit was Dalia Mujahid, a top advisor on Islamic and Arab affairs at the State Department, who is of Egyptian origin. And that”, said the reports, “came at the request of the high command of the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt, who wish to see the US Administration support the Islamist Sunni current.” 
 
Also very noticeable at this point is the growing domination of Islamist forces around the Mediterranean: the victory of the Nahda Islamist Party in Tunisia, the declaration by (TNC Chairman) Mustafa Abdeljalil that Libya is an Islamist state and the rise of the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt. These developments wouldn't have happened without the approval of the United States. A document published in Washington indicated that Egypt will face more violence and tensions while moving to the Pakistani, rather than the Turkish, model. Egypt will be ruled by an opportunistic bourgeoisie and a regime declaring itself Islamist, and it will be backed by a military institution. The military will be used by the Islamists to maintain power but the armed forces, the parliament, the regime and the constitution will all become Islamist.
 
In return, the Maronite Patriarch is denied a visit to Washington, Coptic Christian churches are destroyed in Egypt, and Coptic demonstrators are massacred at Maspero in Cairo by the Egyptian military, demonstrating that the goal is to suppress Christians in the Middle East, who are - as Patriarch Rahi said - paying a high price for the revolts of the Arab Spring. Rahi expressed his concerns about the fate of Syrian and Lebanese Christians and sees, as does the world, the flight of millions of Iraqi and Middle Eastern Christians from their homelands as a result of events in Iraq, and the methodic persecution against the Copts. The Christians of Egypt aren't only facing suppression and ethnic cleansing but a form of genocide. 
 
The real question now is: who is allowing the Muslim Brotherhood lobby to damage the relationship between the US Administration and millions of Middle East Christians? This lobby was able to delay meetings between leaders from Coptic Solidarity International, including Magdi Khalil and Adel Guindy, with the US Government. Similar obstructions have been happening with Chaldean and Assyrian delegations over the past few years. Moreover, the Muslim Brotherhood has waged a hysterical campaign against prominent experts in counterterrorism such as Steven Emerson, Daniel Pipes, John Guandolo and Robert Spencer. One particularly rough campaign was waged by CAIR against Professor Walid Phares, one of the most important, and even prescient, experts in counterterrorism and Jihadist movements in the US. In his book, “The Coming Revolution: Struggle for Freedom in the Middle East”, Dr. Phares predicted its evolution and the shape of coming Islamist regimes in the region.  
 
But the Muslim Brotherhood’s campaign is not limited to liberal Arabs, Christians, Jews and Atheists. It has also targeted Muslims who oppose the Ikhwan (Muslim Brotherhood) lobby such as Dr. Zuhdi Jasser, the President of the American Islamic Forum for Democracy (AIFD); Sherkoh Abbas, from the Syrian Kurdish Council; Farid Ghadri; the Somali-American author Ayan Hirsi Ali; Ali al Yammi; Tarek Fatah and many more.  Attacking Muslim liberals in the West helps the Muslim Brotherhood's project in the radical Islamization of the Middle East, but it does not at all help US interests. Oppressing opposition, diversity, pluralism, and shedding human rights and freedoms are in direct contradiction to the values defended, and sacrificed for, by America's founding fathers as well as by all those who fought wars for America throughout her history.
 
These intimidation and suppression campaigns directed against Arab and Middle East Christians – and against intellectuals and researchers opposing the Muslim Brotherhood and its sinister ties to Hamas, Hezbollah and Iran - in fact are aimed at America’s ability to become aware of the threat all of them pose to American freedoms. For American strength isn't only in its navies and military power, but in its Constitution and the laws which provide the moral force for all other distinctly American liberties.
 
Note that the US Constitution did not include any suppressive articles (regarding freedom of religion or freedom of speech), the lack of which is the case in many Middle Eastern countries. Rather, it was written in the spirit of a Jeffersonian federal democracy based on individual freedoms.
 
So, all things considered both here and in the Middle East, where exactly are the Obama Administration and the Muslim Brotherhood lobby, together, taking America? And why?

Fools stay out of Syria[in Turkey] and make the people who stay in Syria to come to streets. People of Syria are not that much bold as Libya. Libya took guns. But the fools say NATO not to inter-vein. Whose life is lost? Just i read the news that the Death of Gidaffi has raised the hope and again the count of the demonstrators has gone high, which clearly says that the count has slowly reduced. Sure the fools staying in Turkey will be kicked off Syria if the Syrian Free Army doesn't take guys. And now fools you say who will support Free Syrian Army? Even the Army Deflectors can been killed, you loose people and the army men and yourself. Think before it goes waste...call for NATO

Is or is not Obama a member of Muslim Brotherhood?

Are all these Muslim Brotherhood people in or not in Homeland security?

Are they or are they not using sensitive information from DHS for their own and political gains?

Essam Abdallah's article is spot on. He represent our view, Arab liberals, that the US Administration is backing the Muslim Brotherhood against Muslim seculars,including conservatives and progressives. The link established by Abdallah in his powerful article, shows the depth of the Islamist lobby in the United States and how it is in sink with the Brotherhood rise in the region. Arab and Muslim liberals and democrats are the victims of Muslim Brotherhood influence in the US.

I'll tell you where the Muslim Brotherhood and the Obama Administration are taking America - right off a cliff for along, long fall and fatal crash. We have got to get this pro-Arab weirdo out of the White House!

The combination of Obama's sophomoric naivete and his malignant narcissism are a recipe for the fall of America. I have to believe that this is the case, and not that he planned this partnership with the Muslim Brotherhood to take us down.

Obama may not be a "card carrying" member of the Muslim Brotherhood, however, he is a "Believer" in those Rag Heads and will totally ruin this country if he by chance is re-elected in 2012.

Obama is taking us down in more ways than one. He has attacked our free market system, our financial markets, our business class, and our allies while promoting inappropriate and dangerous relationships with our enemies. Does anyone really believe we are in this condition because of his naivete?

Obama is trying VERY hard to establish a ruling class with him at the helm. He could not care less about our country or its people. the Muslim Brotherhood needs to be cleansed from our government, our military and intel services, the DHS, all of it. They are infiltrated throughout and this administration is encouraging it so that our enemies can see our country's secrets and give misinformation and disinformation to our law enforcement.

Obama has done nothing except to destroy America and its ideals. With good luck, we can ship him to Iran where he belongs to enjoy the benefits of his Muslim brotherhood.

The article was good except for one glaring error . Our founding fathers had no respect and intense dislike of democracy . They said that democracies end up being mob rule , never last longer than 200 years and were " suicidal " Never would founders gotten into wars for the purpose of spreading " democracy " . Especially where it wasn't understood or wanted .Are we INSANE ?

The Bible is clear in this, God puts ALL Men and Women into positions of authority, including Obama. The problem is that Obama is abusing his position. This is no surprise to the Lord. God can use Obama's abuse of America and her people, but in the meantime we will continue to suffer at the hands of a man intent of destroying America and making her another Islamic Nation. He stated that America is No Longer a Christian Nation. He is full of himself, He may not be a Christian and his own actions prove that he cannot be trusted to tell the truth, but to make a blanket statement about 300 million people who for a majority ARE Christian... Yes.. We are a Christian Nation. And if people don't vote, he will again be the President. If we are not careful the wicked witch of D.C. Clinton will take his place at the helm. And this would mean that the replacement would be far worse than the problem child. Take care America and Pray that we vote for someone who actually has the same ideals as you do. Blessings....

It is strange that all these countries are turning Islamist under Obama. There is a hidden agenda at work here I believe.

Obama has accomplished his goal: Chaos. It is a fait accompli. Our country is now divided along racial, cultural, and class lines due to him, and the majority have lost faith in our system of governance and Congress, and for good reason, the latter. What better type of situation than this to then introduce enemy interlopers into our government and institutions of power?

Does anyone remember Hesham Islam, an Egyptian, who worked for the ASSISTANT SECRETARY OF DEFENSE as somethiong like his Chief of Staff? Until he was exposed and then had to be fired? You don't need to go farther than that to understand the depth of infiltration these Islamists have achieved in our government. Talk about knowing all our secrets! they're in the secretary of defense's office??? Try that on for size.

Bernie, America is NOT a chrisitan nation! It is a nation of many religions. Again, America is not a Chrisitian nation. What we are becoming is a nation of racist bigoted who hates having a black president they do anything to impeach him because they are racist!

President Obama has NOT imitated our moron Bush who destroyed our nation. He has been working very hard to reverse Bush's failled policies and wars that brought our nation to financial ruin, no jobs, and a huge debt. Thank God we have an actual leader in President Obama – one who is intelligent, strong, and keeps delivering successes that Bush could never accomplish. The right wing of America have becom total racist loser and as plastic and people-hating as they come.

Under this Administration we lost Egypt, Libya, Tunisia, Lebanon and soon we're losing Iraq, and after that Afghanistan. Yes Bin laden was killed and a million Jihadists are roaming the Middle East instead with al Qaeda flags planted in Tripoli. Nice legacy...

The Islamist did not just start this influx under the current prez. It goes back further than that. I would say that it started under Clinton and has only now started to come to light as people in the know sound the alarm. It may be too late. I look for O to come up with some way to cancel the elections in 2012. I don't see him giving up, and leaving the White House with out a fight.

Yeah Questionman, You are the prime source of decay of the my beloved contry and all the others like you. You have not other recourse than to use the race card anytime one is inteligent enough to see what this yellow belly traitor, socialist thing we call president is doing to bring us all to our knees. George Bush? you blame him? Then you are a rasist either aginst Texas or him being white. You milk sucking sheep, I bet you never had to struggle for a thing in your life. Can you even change a flat tire? No. Call AAA. What ya gonna do when the "goose stepping" Obama troops come after you? Curse captilism? Get on your knees and beg? Course you won't fight cause I imagine you think guns are a terrible thing. So, as the sheep you are and those like you, lay down and accept whatever your idol the great master gives you. It's the do nothing little slim as you that make me puke. To think I once thought I was fighting a war to defend the likes of you. I wish I'd gone to Canada, They were seen as the heros not the cowards they were.

Dinesh D'Souza, the president of the King's College in New York City, is the author of the forthcoming book "The Roots of Obama's Rage". He wrote in the September 27, 2010 issue of "Forbes Magazine" that Obama is seeking to punish America for its imperialism. Perhaps he is onto something.

No surprize that Obama with his Islamic sympathies, is behind the Islamic Brotherhood and its agenda with Arabic Spring: to uproot current regimes to make room for the Islamic Brotherhood. We have no right to interfere with another sovereign country to bring about its downfall costing untold loss of lives and damage.

President Obama should finally and openly confess his Muslim identity.
His lies jeopardize thousands of Christian and millions of Jewish lives. Not to mention the disienfrachisement of modern Muslims/Arabs.
