My latest in PJ Media:
Senator Ted Cruz (R-Texas) has reintroduced the Muslim Brotherhood Terrorist Designation Act, explaining that he believes it will “advance America’s fight against radical Islamic terrorism.” Senator Jim Inhofe (R-Oklahoma), one of the bill’s cosponsors, notes that “since the founding of the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt, Brotherhood-affiliated groups have consistently preached and incited hatred against Christians, Jews and other Muslims while supporting designated radical terrorists.” That is true, and they have done it while having the ear of some of the top officials in the U.S. intelligence and law enforcement apparatus, and that’s why this bill is so needed.
The passage of S. 2230, the Muslim Brotherhood Terrorist Designation Act, is not just an option. It’s a necessity – to bring sanity back to U.S. foreign and domestic policy.
If anyone should know whether or not the Brotherhood is a terrorist organization, it is those who have borne the brunt of its wrath. Thus it was illuminating when Coptic Solidarity, a group dedicated to defending the rights of one of the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood’s chief terror targets, began an advocacy campaign in favor of the Muslim Brotherhood Terrorist Designation Act when it was first introduced in 2016.
Coptic Solidarity President Alex Shalaby declared: “It is unconscionable that the US still has not taken this action when countries such as Egypt, Syria, Russian, UAE, and Saudi Arabia have all declared the Muslim Brotherhood to be a terrorist organization.”
This delay was initially the responsibility of the powerful friend of the Brotherhood who lived in the White House until January 20, 2017, and since then has been perpetuated by his minions in the deep state. Barack Obama made sure that Muslim Brotherhood members were in the audience when he gave his Cairo speech in June 2009, and came out in favor of the uprisings against Egypt’s Hosni Mubarak even when it became clear that the Brotherhood stood to be their chief beneficiary. Protesters against the Brotherhood regime in Egypt as it was driven from power in 2013 accused Obama of supporting terrorism.
The accusation wasn’t made lightly. During the Brotherhood’s one year in power, Egypt’s El Nadeem Center for Rehabilitation of Victims of Violence documented 359 cases of torture by the regime – ten times the number of cases documented annually during the Mubarak regime. One chief Brotherhood target was Egypt’s Christian community: Brotherhood partisans ransacked Christian businesses and abducted Christian children.
Brotherhood members blamed the fall of their regime on the Christians and rampaged against Christians all over Egypt, burning and looting nearly seventy churches and destroying 1,000 Christian businesses and homes. The Rev. Khalil Fawzi of Kasr El Dubarrah Evangelical Church, the Middle East’s largest evangelical church, said: “The Muslim Brotherhood were the ones who called for aggression [against Christians]. They are responsible. Either they are in control or they burn Egypt.”
There is much more. Read the rest here.

Cruz Reintroduces Bill to Designate Muslim Brotherhood A Terrorist Group
…………..
Yes–a good bill from Ted Cruz. Hope it passes.
Keith O says
And, if it does then CAIR will be closed down as an organisation that supports terrorism.
Fingers crossed that he succeeds!
Giacomo Latta says
That would be the natural progression.

We ex-Muslims know that the followers of the cult Mohammedanism are the greatest liars in the world!! After all, they are studiously following the example of the prophet of Islam, so this is to be expected…
Qur’an 033:021: There has certainly been for you in the Messenger of Allah an excellent pattern for anyone whose hope is in Allah and the Last Day and [who] remembers Allah often.
Qur’an 033:036: It is not for a believer, man or woman, when Allah and His Messenger have decreed a matter, that they should have any option in their decision. And whoever disobeys Allah and His Messenger, he has indeed strayed in a plain error.
Hadith: Sahih Bukhari Volume 1, Book 8, Number 387:
Narrated Anas bin Malik:
Allah’s Apostle said, “I have been ordered to fight the people till they say: ‘None has the right to be worshipped but Allah.’ And if they say so, pray like our prayers, face our Qibla and slaughter as we slaughter, then their blood and property will be sacred to us and we will not interfere with them except legally and their reckoning will be with Allah.” Narrated Maimun ibn Siyah that he asked Anas bin Malik, “O Abu Hamza! What makes the life and property of a person sacred?” He replied, “Whoever says, ‘None has the right to be worshipped but Allah’, faces our Qibla during the prayers, prays like us and eats our slaughtered animal, then he is a Muslim, and has got the same rights and obligations as other Muslims have.”
Here is a recent statement from a group of Bangladeshi apostates living in the UK explaining the reasons why they have abandoned Islam:
“One who claims to be a messenger of God is expected to live a saintly life. He must not be given to lust, he must not be a sexual pervert, and he must not be a rapist, a highway robber, a war criminal, a mass murderer or an assassin. One who claims to be a messenger of God must have a superior character. He must stand above the vices of the people of his time. Yet Muhammad’s life is that of a gangster godfather. He raided merchant caravans, looted innocent people, massacred entire male populations and enslaved the women and children. He raped the women captured in war after killing their husbands and told his followers that it is okay to have sex with their captives (Qur’an 33:50). He assassinated those who criticized him and executed them when he came to power and became de facto despot of Arabia. Muhammad was bereft of human compassion. He was an obsessed man with his dreams of grandiosity and could not forgive those who stood in his way…”
The statement continues,
“Muhammad was a narcissist, like Hitler, Saddam or Stalin. He was astute and knew how to manipulate people, but his emotional intelligence was less evolved than that of a 6-year-old child. He simply could not feel the pain of others. He brutally massacred thousands of innocent people and pillaged their wealth. His ambitions were big and as a narcissist he honestly believed he is entitled to do as he pleased and commit all sorts of crimes and his evil deeds are justified.”

“Muhammad was a narcissist, like Hitler, Saddam or Stalin.”
I would add Barackkk Obama to that list too.

Yes, the HolyLand Foundation charity trial investigation had information regarding the muslim brotherhood’s mission which was ignored by the prior both Bu/OB administration. This would be important for any President or national security except Ob. or one who did who had meetings with the base…in fact the Islam phobia.hate speech, racism, accusations began to rise, which followed sharia law to never speak about Islam or face attacks. Some information came out but of course denied and it seem to cement the basement door to the secured location so this information would never see the light of day and hide the problem that could have interfered with the mass migration that spoke and had written about the mission to destroy our “miserable house”. This had the same effect as suppressing information of the study of ‘9/11 Commission Report’, a book immediately removed from the shelves at the end of the Bush administration, deleted information in new editions that talked about an Islamic fatwah strike in U.S. once again lack of information pretaining to the aggressor, such as deception commanded by sharia, allowed the diverted information suppressed from public resulting in growth of power and alliances of the far maoist/ socialist left a danger from within and this time with votes. In my opinion.
Jamie says
Might as well add CAIR to the list as well.
Reziac says
Designating one evil group as terrorists means that it becomes so much easier to do the same for associated groups.
ronyvo says
I don’t understand why our beloved president Trump did not declare the MB a terrorist org? I thought this would be the first on his list. I believe that the mess the Criminal Party aka the Democrat Party is responsible of the major fraud in our election, which was enhanced by the MB Org. This Org is the most evil group ever existed.
Infidel says
I agree: this bill comes 4 years too late. A good time to have done this would have been around Trump’s visit to Riyadh in 2017
underbed cat says
Agree that sword dance was offensive. The deception was luring…..it left me dishearted and frightened in the beginnng.
gravenimage says
The problem is that while President Trump has been refreshingly Anti-Jihad, he still has never undrestood much about Islam itself.
Still *far* better than most leaders, though.
Linde Barrera says
I was a volunteer campaigner for Senator Ted Cruz in New Hampshire between Jan. 28-
Feb. 10, 2016. He is a very smart man and a freedom loving man, and I am proud of his efforts to help keep America free and strong.
I also love Donald Trump and Mike Pence for the same reasons.
I know many who comment here are atheists, but please if you can, pray to God Almighty that Trump and Pence can legally get inaugurated once more on Jan. 20, 2021.
Thank you. For Freedom. For America.
OLD GUY says
Thank you Sen. Cruz, the Muslim Brotherhood is a dangerous organization operating to support the islamic jihadist terrorism against America.
underbed cat says
I agree…Thank you Senator Cruz.I know he attempted too, at an earlier time and I don’t know how much President Trump was aware of the importance of the HLF trial information, the deep state had an interest to suppress both information of a polical movement with a religious mask and only to remove Trump and seemed to misinform him at every step with the collective idea we had nothing to fear from the sharia based world and migration intended to flood our country for eventual power by demanding a voice of “peaceful” presentation and outrageous obstruction of doctrine information calling it racist.
Patrick White says
He’s a good man, Ted Cruz. I hope he sets CAIR in his targets as a terrorist organisation next.
