President Trump has tasked Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent with providing a report on whether to designate Muslim Brotherhood entities as terrorist organizations. The report is due by Christmas Eve.
At the state level, Govs. Greg Abbott of Texas and Ron DeSantis of Florida have designated the Muslim Brotherhood “mother movement” and one of its front groups, the Council on American-Islamic Relations, as terrorist organizations in their states. These actions align with designations by U.S. allies in the Middle East and beyond.
That’s the good news. The bad news is that the governments of Qatar and Turkey are deemed reliable U.S. allies but fund and enable the Brotherhood’s determination to destroy Western civilization, particularly the United States. Both countries oppose designating the Muslim Brotherhood as a terrorist organization.
The Muslim Brotherhood was founded in Egypt in 1928 by Hassan al-Banna to implement Shariah globally and reestablish the caliphate. Its creed states: “Allah is our objective, the Prophet is our leader, the Quran is our law, jihad is our way, and dying in the way of Allah is our highest hope.” It endorses violence against non-Muslims when expedient.
By the 1950s, Muslim Brotherhood leaders established bases in Europe and America. In Germany, they built the Islamic Center of Munich, funded by Nazi ties and later U.S. intelligence. In the U.S., the Muslim Brotherhood formed the Muslim Students Association in 1963 at the University of Illinois as its first front group.
The group’s U.S. strategy is detailed in a 1991 “explanatory memorandum” from FBI raids, outlining a “civilization-jihadist process” to destroy Western civilization through infiltration. The phased plan includes secret leadership, public fronts, media escalation, confrontation and seizure of power. Techniques involve expanding presence via immigration and birth rates, labeling critics “Islamophobic,” and subverting education and lawfare for Shariah.
The Muslim Brotherhood controls key U.S. Muslim organizations: the Islamic Society of North America, with more than 300 chapters, the North American Islamic Trust, holding many mosque deeds, and CAIR, founded by Hamas leaders. The 2008 Holy Land Foundation trial named them unindicted co-conspirators for aiding Hamas.
The U.S. threat extends beyond terrorism to subversion. Muslim Brotherhood-affiliated Shariah supremacists, backed by Qatar and Turkey, avoid violence temporarily but pursue domination, exploiting a U.S. focus on terrorism to subvert security.
Earlier this month, the Victory Coalition released “The Choice: Ban the Brotherhood or Face Civilization Erasure,” a report urging President Trump to designate the Muslim Brotherhood and its affiliates as terrorist organizations. In the report, several experts issue warnings about the Muslim Brotherhood.
Charles Faddis says the Muslim Brotherhood seeks Western destruction and subjugation, aligns ideologically with al Qaeda and uses deception. Robert Spencer notes that terrorism is one jihad tool, but the Muslim Brotherhood uses “civilization jihad” nonviolently for Shariah hegemony. David Wurmser warns that Damascus’ fall and Europe’s Islamization will embolden the Muslim Brotherhood, ending minority tolerance.
Stephen Coughlin questions the impact of designations on Muslim Brotherhood alliances amid Qatari-Turkish influence.
Trevor Loudon advises treating the Muslim Brotherhood as organized crime with anti-racketeering tactics and amnesty for informants. Joe Kent testified that 18,000 known terrorists entered the country under President Biden, raising the risk of self-radicalized attacks. Richard Pollock reports expert warnings of imminent al Qaeda/Islamic State group mass-casualty strikes.
I cite British “civilization erasure” via unchecked Muslim Brotherhood entities, student groups and Qatari investments.
Failure to ban the Muslim Brotherhood now will accelerate civilization erasure through violent jihad, ideological subversion and alliances with hostile forces. Designate the “mother movement” and all subdivisions as terrorist organizations immediately. Enforce Mr. Trump’s pledge to strip out radical networks using counter-Mafia tactics. Harden defenses against imminent attacks from jihadis, Chinese communists and leftist proxies, and mobilize public vigilance to detect and report threats.

This is some 24 years overdue. 9/11 should have been enough to get not just al Qaeda funding orgs like the Holy Land Foundation, but also the muslim brotherhood banned
As they say, better late than never

Seems very straightforward to me. The Muslim Brotherhood seeks to destroy western civilization – using non-violent AND violent methods. It’s a terrorist organization.
Tony says
Islam’s Mosques, Schools, Sharia Courts, Islamic Centers, Halal Organizations, etc. should be made illegal for their funding, teaching, and promotion of discrimination, segregation, violence, and terrorism against Non-Muslims as taught in Islam’s Qur’an(Qur’an 9;5, 29, 111; 98:6-7; 49:15, etc.).
SUPREMACIST ISLAM IS ANTICHRIST, AHISTORICAL, DECEITFUL, MILITARISTIC, AND POLITICAL against the USA Constitution and Western Laws to conquer and to subjugate Non-Muslims using MUSLIM-TERRORIST-CRIMINAL-GANG ENTERPRISES with ISLAMIC LAW(SHARIA) and with CONTINUOUS, TERROR PROPAGANDA from Islam’s Qur’an as evidenced by the continuous Muslim attacks to make Islam supreme(Qur’an 2:191; 3:28, 54; 4:89-91; 7:99; 8:30, 60; 9:5, 29,111; 16:106, etc.). Islam and its Muslims, enemies of Non-Muslims, are a Muslim Terrorist Organization(MTO) as taught in Islam’s Qur’an.
Deceitful Allah affirms Non-Muslims as enemies of Allah while Muslims continuously undermine a society from within using their man-made Qur’an with lies, obfuscation, and deceit(Qur’an 3:54; 7:99; 8:30; 60:4, etc.). Allah in Qur’an 4:101 says, “…Surely the infidels[Non-Muslims] were your clear enemies.” Allah expects all Muslim believers to war against all non-Muslims until the Unbelievers convert to Islam or face Muslim violence. Corrupt Allah in Qur’an 8:39 says, “And engage in war with them[Non-Muslims] until there will not be sedition and the religion will be completely to Allah…” As a result, Non-Muslims are marked for death by Islam and its Muslims.
Islam is a civilization-destroying, delusional, indoctrinating, cancerous fraud because there is NO MECCA, NO MUHAMMAD, and NO Qur’an in the 7th century AD in Saudi Arabia despite the Muslim Standard Islamic Narrative claims; the Deceitful House of Islam is founded on propaganda, lies, intimidation, and deceit where Islam’s 1400-year traditions are based on fallacy and myth including a more than 300-year gap with no documented history. Hence, NEVER give money to Islamic Countries, Islamic Organizations, Mosques, Islamic Schools, etc. because your are funding your ultimate destruction. Islam must be banned as illegal, and we have the legal right to defend ourselves from Muslim violence.
Islam’s Muslims are to be Seditionist Terrorists for Allah with their MONEY and their LIVES. Allah in Qur’an 49:15 teaches, “Surely the believers[Muslims] are only those who believed in Allah and his messenger. They do not doubt, and they performed jihad with their MONEY and their LIVES for the sake of Allah. Those are the truthful.” Again, Islam is a FACTITIOUS IDEOLOGY and CRIMINAL ORGANIZATION despicably fabricated over time into the 21sth century, and there is NO PEACE only genocidal obliteration with Islam and its deceitful Muslims(Qur’an 7:18; 8:39: 9:5, 29, 111; 11:119; 32:13; 47:4, etc.).
ALLAH claims MUSLIMS are a greater TERROR than serpentine Allah in Islam’s Qur’an. Allah in Qur’an 59:13 says, “You[Muslims] are a greater terror in their chests than Allah. This is because they[Jews & Christians] are people who do not understand.” Allah in Qur’an 9:29 commands, “Engage in war with those who do not believe in Allah nor in the last day. Nor forbid what Allah and his messenger forbid, nor believe in the religion of the truth among those who have given the book until they pay the jizyah out of hand and they are subdued.”
Islam, its Mosques, its Schools, its Sharia Courts, its Organizations, etc. are Terrorist-Criminal Enterprises of hatred and enmity against all Non-Muslims as totalitarian Islam, the House of Satan, islamizes the society with impunity(Qur’an 5:14; 9:5, 29, 111, etc.). As taught from Islam’s Qur’an, Islam should be banned for its incitement, funding, and promotion of hybrid warfare, violence, terrorism, criminality, hatred, human trafficking, and discrimination against women, children, and Non-Muslims.
Allah describes Muslim women in Jenna, Allah’s Paradise, as whores of Allah in Qur’an 56:37. Also, Allah stirs hatred against Christians until the resurrection day as Qur’an 5:14 instructs, “And some of those who say, ‘Surely we are Nasara (Christians),’ we took their covenant. So they have forgotten a part of what they were reminded of, so we have stirred up ENMITY and HATRED among them until the resurrection day. And Allah will inform them of what they were doing.” See also Qur’an 60:4; 8:55.

The mb said it…the destruction of the West is their goal..
obl was a member of the mb before he started the offshoot, al queda.
n awad met with members of the mb to form cair They are all snakes. All have the same goal.
This, in agreement with Trevor Loudon, has been what I have said time and again:: ” advises treating the Muslim Brotherhood as organized crime with anti-racketeering tactics ”
The RICO Act was written for prosecuting the mafia, cosa nostra and other organized crime mobs. It has been used successfully to lessen the actions of those groups ;and the AB most recently.
It could, and should, be used against the mb and its many offshoots, its “children.”
Extortion can take many forms, from the thug grabbing an old man by the throat while his wife takes cash from the register, to veiled threats of lawfare, boycotts, and other means to scare people into silence and acceptance.

The U.S. has to implement the needed strategies to protect itself. No more debates.
Patrick says
It’s not just the Muslim Brotherhood, it’s every mosque in America and how they’re used to corrupt America. Mosques can be and are radicalization centers, most of which are funded by Saudi Arabia and Qatar. Devout Muslims who worship the Quran, Allah and Muhammad, are all potential terrorists. Brainwashing in Islam is an art form, Muslims brainwash from birth through adulthood. It’s accomplished on a global scale, by billions of Muslims, Islamic presence is global. To sum up the Quran: If you’re not Muslim, you’re vulnerable to being killed by Muslims, any Christian, Jew, and non-Muslims are targets of Muslims, you can be killed, raped, enslaved, tortured, beheaded, thrown off high buildings, imprisoned for life, forced into marriage, physically abused, Muslims have committed more atrocities, than any other civilization. Over the last 3,000 years, Muslims have killed nearly 350 million people and I pray nightly for all of them.

Walter Sieruk says
President Trump has officially designated the Muslim Brotherhood as a terrorist organization, that was a wise decision of him to made.
Two of the reasons why the Muslim Brotherhood a threat to America is the one fact alone that the MB has close firm and strong connections with Hamas, exposes it for what it really is.
Second, Americans need to and should be aware of those stealth jihad- minded Muslims who are living in the United States, as those members of the Muslim Brotherhood, and attempt to have Sharia law enacted in this country. Those facts that this is the United States, and has something that is far better than Sharia law. It’s the US Constitution. This is America, not Saudi Arabia or Iran.
As the former US President, Theodore Roosevelt, had well-spoken when he declared in a speech “There can be no fifty-fifty Americanism in this country. There is only room here for only hundred percent Americanism, only for those who are Americans and nothing else.”
In addition, one other reason is that the Muslim Brotherhood is a threat to America may be seen in what it did In Egypt when gain control of the government. It used the Egyptian police force to engage in sever persecution of the Christians of that country, putting them in prison and sometimes ever murdering them.
Walter Sieruk says
President Trump has revealed his good judgement by designating the Muslim Brotherhood as a terrorist organization.
One of the reasons why the Muslim Brotherhood to America is because it’s against the US Constitution and \would like to replace it as the law of the land in America with Sharia.
For their Islamic scheme for achieving the advancement of Islam and its Sharia in United States by the members Muslim Brotherhood is called the “stealth jihad” which is which by insidious infiltrate o the United States government both dangerously subversive to the US Constitution which those stealth jihadists in that that insidious Brotherhood” would want to replace the US Constitution with Islam’s Sharia.
This as subtly effective and also is demonically clever in an Islamic sense. Furthermore, this, in some ways, is very similar to the instruction printed in the book entitled THE ART OF WAR by Sun Tzu. Which reads, “At first, then, exhibit the coyness of a maiden, until the enemy gives you an opening; afterwards emulate the rapidity of a running hare, and it will be too late for the enemy to opposes you”

Qatar and Turkey are NOT reliable US allies.

“CAIR California under fire: Watchdogs allege chapter concealed millions in taxpayer funds amid DOJ probe”
“A Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) chapter under investigation for its financial activity says it received more than $7 million in taxpayer funds between 2022 and 2024. Research by watchdog groups suggests the true amount is much higher.
CAIR California documented the funds in the “government grants” section of its tax forms, but a November report by the Network Contagion Research Institute (NCIR) and Intelligent Advocacy Network (IAN) found that it received at least $26 million in government grants across 2022 and 2023 alone and failed to properly report them, citing public documents they obtained.
IAN previously filed a complaint in March about the self-described Muslim civil rights group’s financial transparency issues and alleged ties to Hamas terrorists, prompting the Department of Justice (DOJ) to investigate its eligibility for immigration-related grants, the Daily Caller News Foundation previously reported. California’s Fair Political Practices Commission is also probing the chapter in response to another IAN complaint, a June letter from the agency shows.

“These unfounded allegations are part of a larger defamation campaign targeting American Muslims by fringe anti-Muslim groups who intentionally misrepresent public documents and information to create a false narrative,” CAIR California told the DCNF without The November study found that CAIR California obscured its lavish taxpayer funding in 2022 and 2023 by reporting much of it under “contributions and grants” instead of “government grants.” The chapter reported $7,063,797 in government grants in its 2024 filing — around 37% of its revenue that year — after marking down just $127,269 in 2023 and zero in 2022. The 2024 document with the higher amount was filed in November, months after IAN began publicly criticizing CAIR California’s financial activity.
“Whether what they have declared for 2024 is accurate remains to be seen,” George, the group’s CEO, told the DCNF.
CAIR California also claimed the November report “falsely” accused the chapter of raising “thousands of dollars for students engaged in campus protests” in comments to the DCNF, referencing coverage from The New York Post that it disputes. The original report by IAN and the NCRI highlighted how CAIR California officials posted an outside organization’s link for donating to anti-Israel college protesters, spoke at multiple schools’ encampment protests, encouraged social media followers to provide supplies to campus demonstrators and started an education fund for students “targeted for their pro-Palestine advocacy,” including protesters.
The chapter has also drawn controversy through the years for its leaders’ comments praising or dodging questions about Hamas terrorists.
Hussam Ayloush, who leads CAIR California’s Los Angeles office, accused an interviewer of “bigotry” and “racism” in 2013 for asking if his organization condemns Hamas, stating generally that CAIR condemns violence. Zahra Billoo, the head of CAIR California’s San Francisco Bay Area office, referred to the Islamic group’s Oct. 7, 2023, massacre in Israel as “decolonization” and celebrated a deceased Hamas leader for his “martyrdom” in X posts.
IAN’s March complaint to the DOJ emphasized that the department listed CAIR as an unindicted co-conspirator in the 2007 trial of Palestinian activists convicted of providing material support to Hamas. Prosecutors said the terrorist group formed a committee with CAIR and other advocacy organizations to advance its political agenda in the U.S. under the guise of activism. CAIR has long denied ties to terrorism.”

And nobody understands the shame that is happening in Africa. Never before has there been so many Islamist groups, the have their own countries.
And what is the answer of European Christendom? They send people here to make Africa accept lgbt, and to give the aid to Muslims. We are being invaded and sacrificed. Thank you donald Trump for taking a notice at the least.
Africa is weak and the Muslim brotherhood and its radical allies are taking over. Free aid given to terrorists… Free healthcare for wounded terrorist fighters by Christian charities. How is this normal?
