Wonder of wonders, what is the first demand of the Muslim Brotherhood? They want the U.S. to drop all support of Israel! Who would think that they would make that type of pre-condition to talks? Anyone who looks at the world rationally.
This brings us to our Secretary of State. Where does she get her rose colored glasses? Anyone who has lived as long as she has and is in the responsible position she has, should know different. So the only rational answer is that she is getting what she and/or the Administration wants.
Would they (the Administration) want Israel to be isolated by an American withdrawal of support?
What would that achieve? We would like to hear what you think.
Our opinion is that the Administration (Obama, Clinton et al) is anti-Israel, pro-Palestinian and will do anything in its power to make sure that Israel is isolated politically and militarily. Those of us who support the Jewish State must take action to let the President know that we will not stand for this.
Muslim Brotherhood's First Demand for US: Drop Israel
Ryan Jones - Israel Today Magazine, July 5th, 2011
US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton at the weekend publicly announced the Obama Administration's desire to reestablish ties with Egypt's Muslim Brotherhood.The Brotherhood responded this week by thanking Clinton, and issuing its first demand of its new American friends: drop support for the “Zionist regime.”
In an email response quoted by Bloomberg, Muslim Brotherhood spokesman Mahmoud Ghozlan stated that if America wants solid relations with the group, it should “stop supporting the corrupt and tyrannical regimes, backing the Zionist occupation and using double standards.” It is important to remember that when the Muslim Brotherhood speaks of the “Zionist occupation” it does not mean only the Israeli presence in Judea and Samaria, the so-called “West Bank.”
The Muslim Brotherhood sees all of Israel as a cancerous growth that must be eradicated. The group supports returning Egypt to a state of war with Israel, and wants to see the entirety of the region become an Islamic Caliphate. Former Egyptian President Anwar Sadat was assassinated by the Muslim Brotherhood for making peace with Israel. The Muslim Brotherhood is today the most organized political force in Egypt, raising expectations that it will win control of the government when Egyptians go to the polls in September.
