The Muslim Brotherhood Plan to Destroy America

 An even handed article from the Dallas Morning News:

…”We’ve never seen a document like this,” he said. “That’s their plan for taking over Western civilization. This is the smoking gun. We think this is a document that needs to be understood and seen widely in the U.S.”

Dr. Mandaville, the Islamic scholar, said that although U.S. law enforcement, particularly the FBI, has been “fairly successful in analyzing and picking off the key figures in these networks in the U.S.” – they still exist…

 And if they are friends with Mayor Coleman, they can get appointed to the Homeland Security board!  From another part:

“The people who hold these views today don’t really affiliate with any particular group,” Dr. Mandaville said. “They’re fluid in their social networking. They fade into the background and when necessary, produce a legitimate front to the activity they’re involved in.”

Which explains this.

The goal of the Palestinian Committee, which trial documents indicate existed in the late 1980s and early 1990s, was to raise money in the U.S. to fund Hamas.

This was to be accomplished by forming a complex network of seemingly benign Muslim organizations whose real job, according to the government, was to spread militant propaganda and raise money.

… On the list are several prominent groups, including the Islamic Society of North America, the North American Islamic Trust and the Council on American-Islamic Relations. All have protested their inclusion on the list.

As you would expect.  Their protestations mean nothing.  It’s what they actually do that matters.  Is CAIR and company in support of strengthening internal security?  No all of their actions such as the lawsuit against USAir have the effect of weakening security.

Are they helping to identify radicals in the Muslim community?  I do not know the answer to that one.

Are they sending money to terrorist groups overseas?  Probably.

Are they being supported by those who support terrorist networks themselves.   That’s probably a yes as well.

I’m not an expert, I would trust Patrick Poole for much better answers, but I know enough that there we have trouble in River City.

As far as the destroying America part.  Yes, it’s laughable that a splinter group could even think such a thing.  But their incapability to actually accomplish this is not the scary part, it’s the intentions.  Timothy McVeigh had no capability for his stated goals either, it was his intentions to do something that made him dangerous.
