Nothing Has Changed

Embracing the Enemy by Bill Wilson 

Four years ago (July 20, 2012), Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's aide Huma Abedin and the Muslim Brotherhood were in the news.

Now as the Republican convention comes to a close, WorldNetDaily reports that one of Donald Trump's foreign policy advisors, Joseph Schmitz, thinks that bills in Congress to declare the Muslim Brotherhood a terrorist organization are a good idea.

Egypt and the United Arab Emirates already have banned the Muslim Brotherhood, and Israel agrees that the MB is a terrorist organization. Notwithstanding, the current president and Hillary Clinton both see the Muslim Brotherhood as a foreign policy partner and have staffers in high-level positions who are associated with it.

The current president and Clinton's record and reputation speak for themselves when it comes to foreign policy and national security. It is recorded in countless news stories that this president and his administration are actively in league with the Muslim Brotherhood in helping overthrow Arab countries in the name of "democracy."

It has been proven and reported repeatedly that Clinton's top aide Huma Abedin's family is intimately connected to the Muslim Brotherhood. The overall connections of this Administration to the Muslim Brotherhood have led to a Congressional investigation whether there is influence by the terrorist group on US policy.

In 2012, Senator John McCain and House Speaker John Boehner along with many other Republicans condemned Congresswoman Michelle Bachmann who wrote letters to intelligence and national security agencies raising questions about the Muslim Brotherhood.

The letters, signed by four other Congressmen, accused Abedin's deceased father and brother of being part of the Muslim Brotherhood, and her mother part of the Muslim Sisterhood. The Abedin family ties to the Muslim Brotherhood have been reported in both Arab and Western media.

Bachmann was doing her job raising a concern for America's national security. Clinton, Democrats and many Republicans denounced her for it.

Either the Muslim Brotherhood is a terrorist organization or it is not. Its plan to destroy America was entered as evidence in the 2008 Holy Land Foundation trial that ended in convictions of those who were laundering money to fund another terrorist group, Hamas.

Congressman Darrell Issa (R-Ca) said, "...clearly you have an administration who sided with the Muslim Brotherhood, and even when the evidence is that they are a terrorist organization..."

Trump recognizes the enemy. Clinton embraces the enemy.

Our national security depends on recognizing and dealing with our enemies.

As citizens and Christians we must as Jesus warned in Matthew 24:4, "Take heed that no man deceive you."

Four years ago the Muslim Brotherhood was newsworthy as an enemy of America. Clinton supported it then, and nothing has changed.
