Director Clapper; "Muslim brotherhood is largely secular."

What the frank??? What does MUSLIM mean???

How about this;

"The Brotherhood has as its creed: “Allah is our objective; the Quran is our constitution, the Prophet is our leader; Jihad is our way; and death for the sake of Allah is the highest of our aspirations.”"

Also saw this as the Brotherhoods sloga: "Islam is the solution" The Brotherhood's stated goal is to instill the Qur'an and Sunnah as the "sole reference point for ... ordering the life of the Muslim family, individual, community ... and state".


Notice that Clapper stated that the Brotherhood is nonviolent. I guess cutting off noses and beating women and children is nonviolent since it is done in the name of religion..... Wait, they are secular...... Hmmm, I am getting confused?????


And here is what he really meant. Isnt it odd that our officials are needing someone to come and explain what "was really ment"??? Kind becoming a habit for the last two year.

Also, notice that the Brotherhood stated they will not honor treaties with Israel. That’s going to make a mess.

So it's a largely secular group which is not really secular. I'm glad that's been cleared up.

Maybe its like joining the hells angels but not actually doing the bad stuff or ever breaking the law. Your kinda like a hang around. You pay your dues, that finances the fringe part.

Some one asked Clapper if he procrastinated and he answered, “Well, yes and no!”

Today's news:

On Egypt's first day in nearly 30 years without Hosni Mubarak as president, its new military rulers pledged Saturday to eventually hand power to an elected civilian government and outlined its first cautious steps in a promised transition to democracy. It reassured the world that it will abide by its peace deal with Israel.

I think they remember 1967 and 1973 and they don't want a rematch...

I guess this is "profiling", but I don't trust any kind muslim. Brotherhood, sisterhood, motherhood, fatherhood or just plan a hood. They have proven to me that they cannot be trusted in anyway , form or fashion. Jim

Let's not forget that back in December this guy did not know 12 terrorists had been arrested in England.

Not very impressive.
