Dan Friedman writes from NYC:
They turned a terrorist named Arafat into a Nobel laureate and his PLO into a “peace partner” called the PA. Now they’re at it again, laying the groundwork for acceptance of the Muslim Brotherhood by putting lipstick on a pig.
According to Muslim Brotherhood operative Mohamed Akram, their objective is to transform pluralistic societies into Islamic states, sweeping away Western notions of legal equality, freedom of conscience, freedom of religion and freedom of speech.
And remember this, too: Just a year ago, Janet Napolitano and senior staff met in Washington with three organizations directly associated with the Muslim Brotherhood. She spent an hour and a half briefing them on Department of Homeland Security counter-radicalization and anti-terrorist programs.
Go figure.
For more background see also this 1995 lecture, "The Tolerant Pluralistic Islamic Society: Origin of a Myth" by Bat Ye'Or, who coined the term dhimmitude and who was (coincidentally?) born in Cairo.
