Obama
Embraces The Islamist Enemy Within

The Obama
Record: The Muslim Brotherhood doesn’t just threaten the Mideast. It
threatens
America. Instead of protecting the nation from these Islamofascists,
the
president has embraced them.
Five
patriots on Capitol Hill have cast political correctness aside and
warned of
Brotherhood plants inside the Obama administration. Led by House
intelligence
committee member Michele Bachmann, these GOP lawmakers have asked key
agencies
dealing with national security to investigate possible infiltration by
agents
working for a subversive force not unlike communism.
The old
Washington media have traduced them as “McCarthyites.” Without any
independent
reporting, they’ve declared the government free of Islamist moles,
despite
troubling ties between several Muslim appointees with high-level
security
clearance and the Brotherhood.
They’ve
also certified the Brotherhood a benign organization interested in
helping
widows and orphans — even though the FBI director has testified that
“elements
of the Muslim Brotherhood both here and overseas have supported
terrorism.”
Such
whitewashing is the result of effective influence operations run by the
Muslim
Brotherhood to control how we see our enemies and speak about them.
These
operations are politically sophisticated.
Earlier
last week on CNN, for example, host Anderson Cooper brought on a guest
identified simply as a “professor of religion” to talk about the issue.
John
Esposito of Georgetown University quickly brushed aside concerns about
Islamist
penetration of the State and Homeland Security departments.
Then he
argued it was “racist” to question the loyalty of Muslim officials
working
inside the agencies, despite growing evidence they’ve had undue
influence over
Mideast policy and even leaked highly sensitive intelligence documents.
Viewers
weren’t told that Esposito has a long track record of supporting
Islamists. In
fact, he’s been described by former federal prosecutor Andrew McCarthy
as the
country’s biggest non-Muslim “apologist” for the Brotherhood. As
director of
the Prince Alwaleed Bin Talal Center for Muslim-Christian
Understanding, he’s
also a paid mouthpiece for Saudi interests.
But his
agenda was concealed as he and Cooper agreed the notion of infiltration
was
“absurd.” They noted that Homeland Security chief Janet Napolitano
denies any
Brotherhood penetration, and that the FBI supposedly has “looked into
it and
found nothing.”
In fact,
the FBI is so concerned about the Brotherhood’s influence operations
that it
has, as official policy, refused to meet with the Council on
American-Islamic
Relations — which the bureau has identified in court documents and
testimony as
a U.S. front for Hamas and its parent the Muslim Brotherhood...
