THE MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD

A brotherhood. Sounds innocuous enough. Akin to the brothers of the Ancient Order of Hibernians whose motto is Friendship, Unity and True Christian Charity? I don't think so.

Egypt is in danger of becoming a 'democracy'.....something the White House and their admirers wish to see. One man - one vote. Even if they became a constitutional republic, like the United States, their Republic wouldn't last.

Does anybody really think a government run by the so-called Muslim Brotherhood would play fair for their own people, let alone other people? Aren't these the people who blow up and kill Christian Churches and Christians? Who blow up their own people? Aren't these the people who believe it's their way or no way?

The problem, as I see it, is their use of terrorism to seize and keep power. If they don't like you they kill you. How many dead bodies until good people are afraid to speak out? It's how they control populations. During World War II Russia's Joe Stalin and Germany's Adolf Hitler were masters at it....until matters got out of their control. The Muslims in control of Iran are masters at it, thanks to former President Jimmy Carter. When will matters there get out of control, just like matters now in Egypt.

With the Muslim Brotherhood in power, we can expect them to agitate politically throughout the Arab world. Remember, these are the guys who didn't know what oil was until we taught 'em. These are the guys who overcame Sicily and most of Spain. These are the guys who are visible through the U.S. at gas stations, carry out stores, small hotels/motels etc. Am I missing anything here?

I'd like to believe that the words Muslim Brotherhood really meant something. Oh, it sounds so nice, as if they were practicing Friendship, Unity and true Muslim Charity. I'd like to believe they are a positive influence for people everywhere. But I've witnessed nothing of the kind. And I don't believe I ever will.

I'm from Missouri - "show me"!
