A Muslim Brotherhood dissident recently pointed out that “inside every Brotherhood member is an Islamic State member.”
This came in response to the recent revelation that Islamic State leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi was once in the Muslim Brotherhood.
Abdul Jalil al-Sharnubi, a former Brotherhood leader, made his statements during a satellite interview on the Arabic language program “New Evening” with journalist Jamal ‘Anayat.
His point was that the revelation that al-Baghdadi was in the Brotherhood should be no surprise. To make his point, he even added that “established lawyers and doctors [from the ranks of the Muslim Brotherhood] were among the first to volunteer to fight [for the Islamic State].”
More diplomatically but making the same point, Egyptian Minister of Religious Endowments (Awqaf), Dr. Muhammad Mukhtar Gom‘a earlier said that the fact that al-Baghdadi was with the Brotherhood proves “that the Brotherhood is the spiritual father to every extremist group.”

This very short article says more than enough about the Muslim Brotherhood. All U.S. elected officials, should demand that all Muslim Brotherhood members, to include all those involved in Muslim organizations under the umbrella of the Muslim Brotherhood, in any elected position within our government, should be immediately removed from office.

US elected officials seem to intent on suicide, as are western leaders across europe. What do they think is in it for them? Don’t they realise they are on the execution list right between christians, jews and gays. Unless of course they plan to convert.

Muslim Brotherhood member is an Islamic state member, MB members themselves don’t even deny that fact. They are proud of it. Muslim brotherhood was created with goal of establishing a state ruled by Islamic law. ISIS did just that.
