muslim brotherhood rantings have made him into a joke and everyone knows it everyone except michele bachmann apparently but let's talk about some real facts about the muslim muslim brotherhood in egypt the group disavowed violence in the seventy's it has condemned the nine eleven attacks and terrorism in general and just like arabs and muslims aren't monolithic the brotherhood doesn't have a uniform ideology across the arab world they spent billions on p.r. like saudis do people like bachmann might not be able to spout wise about them instead the saudis are an ally in the muslim brotherhood are painted as the inevitable downfall the downfall of western civilization but i guess we shouldn't be too surprised that bachmann went down the muslim brotherhood rabbit hole instead he's turning nasty into an outreach to the muslim community and the president still has an answer. and i think that leaves a lot of fear and. we're into this president's interest like they're listening to al jazeera and they're being encouraged and prompted to go ahead and start these riots all over france you want to know
