Contributor: Label the Muslim Brotherhood’s branches as terrorist organizations
Tuesday, New York City Radio Server Sid Rosenberg asked Foreign Minister Marco Rubio Whether the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is planning to appoint the Muslim Brotherhood and American-Islamic Relations Council as terrorist organizations. Rubio said that “all this is in the works ,, but“ Frankly, the Muslim Brotherhood has different branches, so you will have to determine each one. ”
Aside from logistics and bureaucracy: time has come.
For a long time, the United States treated the Muslim Brotherhood with a combination of a dangerous pure and deliberate blindness. Brotherhood is not a randomly harmless political movement with a religious bending. The ideological prosperity of modern Sunni Islamism has since its establishment about a century ago. The fingerprints of the brotherhood were on the extensive jihadist groups as al-Qaeda and Hamas, but consecutive American administrations-could not determine their various firing for what they were to: terrorist organizations.
This failure is not just academic. There are consequences in the real world. By refusing to correctly label the Muslim Brotherhood, we connect our own hands both at home and abroad in the struggle against Islamism. Destructive actors Take advantage of our political system And parquet extremism Under the guise of “cultural” or “benevolent” social assistance.
Enough.
The mission of the Muslim Brotherhood, founded by Hassan Al-Banna in Egypt in Egypt, never hesitated: the establishment of a global caliphate ruled by the Sharia Law. Brotherhood has always tried to position itself as a “political olum, but as Lenin is political,“ political ”. Imagine the destruction of revolution through infiltration or through privacy.
Think about Hamas. Hamas is not only inspired by the Muslim Brotherhood – that Muslim Brotherhood Palestinian-Arab branch. The connection is open; As the second article Founding requirement of Hamas “The Islamic resistance movement is one of the wings of the Muslim Brotherhood in Palestine.” Hamas’s statute clearly demonstrates his passion for open violence: “Initiatives and peaceful solutions and international conferences contradict the principles of the Islamic resistance movement.”
This is not the discourse of nuance or moderation. This is the ideological basis of contemporary jihad. Nevertheless, Hamas is rightly determined by the US State Department as a foreign terrorist organization, while other branches of the Muslim Brotherhood remain on the list.
From where? Because the Western elite allowed them to be deceived by the two -faced strategy of brotherhood. Abroad, they clearly plant jihad seeds, cheering for a global caliphate, and preaching to destroy Israel and Western civilization in a wider way. However, in the corridors of the US and Europe, they and their Qatar Paymasters Restorify the frost sets and ties as “moderate ve and take advantage of extreme generous legal protections to erect media insecurity and ideological roots.
Moreover, cair – A peasant common conspirator inside The biggest terrorism financing attempt US history – there is extremely Well documented bonds to brotherhood. Nevertheless, CAIR agents continue to operate freely in the United States and masked as civil rights defenders, while the championship forces Islamist narratives that undermine the basic constitutional equality principles they claim. Today, almost two years after Hamas, which is connected to Cair, executed Pogrom in Israel, Cair good condition A lot Selected Democrats.
It should not be that way. In November 2014 United Arab Emirates determined Cair as a terrorist organizationBy talking about brotherhood and connections with Hamas. And the brotherhood itself is at least known as a terrorist organization by Saudi Arabia, UAE, Egypt, Bahrain and Russia. Jordan Forbid brotherhood Earlier this year. To put it clearly: The United States does not have to have a warmer approach to Cair than the UAE or a warmer approach against brotherhood than Saudi Arabia.
First Trump Management He flirted with an idea To define the Muslim Brotherhood a terrorist organization. It was the right impulse. However, the effort ultimately with internal bureaucracy and international pressure – most importantly, Qatar and the US partners from Türkiye with both strong brotherhood sympathies and bank Islamist causes. And the second Trump administration Qatar’s disturbing embrace It can capture any assignment in the bud before it exits.
Critics argue that such an appointment will complicate relations with the countries where brotherhood subsidiaries participate in local politics. But since when did the US put a premium to build alliances with Al Qaeda and Isis’s ideological cousins?
Moreover, the determination of the Muslim Brotherhood will enable internal law enforcement and intelligence organizations to pursue their networks and financial infrastructure. In determining the US government terrorist groups, he would send a clear sign that he no longer accept the claim of “non -violent Islamism”.
At a time when the threat of Islamic extremes remains globally and non -decentralized, we cannot turn a blind eye to the architects of the movement. The Muslim Brotherhood is not because the “Arab Spring” enhancers claimed that “democracy üzerinde was a Western partner a year and a half ago. It is the milk of the mother of modern Sunni jihadism.
The question is not whether we can afford to appoint the Muslim Brotherhood as terrorist organizations. So: how much can we meet Negative with?

Ideas expressed in the piece
-
The Muslim Brotherhood should be identified by the United States as a terrorist organization and end what it describes as a dangerous combination of naivet and deliberate blindness against the group. The organization has served as the ideological well of modern Sunni Islam since its establishment in Egypt in 1928, and it was stated with its objectives to establish a global caliphate ruled by the Sharia Law.
-
Hamas represents a direct branch of the Muslim Brotherhood, as it is clearly stated in the second article of the Founding Charter of Hamas, the Islamic resistance movement is one of the wings of the Muslim Brotherhood in Palestine .. This connection shows the open ties of brotherhood with well -known terrorist organizations, but other brotherhood branches continue to be uncertain.
-
The American-Islamic Relations Council (CAIR) continued well-documented ties with the Muslim Brotherhood and became a common conspiracy at the largest terrorism financing hearing in the US history. In spite of these connections, CAIR continues to operate freely in the United States while pushing Islamist narratives under the guise of civil rights advocacy.
-
More than one American ally already made a decisive action, the United Arab Emirates in 2014 as a terrorist organization CAIR and Saudi Arabia, UAE, Egypt, Bahrain and Russia, such as brotherhood recognized as a terrorist organization. Earlier this year, Jordan banned brotherhood, and American inertia made it increasingly inconsistent with an international association.
-
The appointment sends an open signal of allegations that the allegations of “non -violent Islamism” are no longer protected from terrorist appointments, while encouraging internal law enforcement officers and intelligence organizations to target brotherhood networks and financial infrastructure. Inability to move has consequences in the real world, which allows destructive actors to benefit from the American political system and extremes through the so -called cultural or philanthropist social assistance.
