certainly compared to a group like the muslim brotherhood.whom we would like to have zero influence in the new government if we had our head screwed on straight. i am really at a loss to explain why the administration keeps telling us that the muslim brotherhood is not a threat. when they are openly saying things that are threatening. and i think that some of the muslim brotherhood's have figured out if they say we are not coming in, we are no problem, we want egypt to be secular, we're not interested in sharia law or things like that. they figured out that plays well over here. and even our director of national intelligence testifying before the congress yesterday was saying similar things. well, this is ridiculous. they are not a secular group. just look at the name. they are the muslim brotherhood. they are not some nonreligious group. their whole agenda, their whole program is to have more religious law in egypt. and if it were just that, like i just want to go off and live on their own and live under sharia and just live life, fine. that

democratic bonafide are by no means assured hamas is in fact the palestinian version of the muslim brotherhood let me get you in to react to this norm i mean do you agree that the muslim brotherhood if a is anti-american and anti israel and you agree that if they came to power that things could really spiral out of control. well by coincidence i just came back from egypt i was aware last week and i have to say i was surprised by the degree of passion and concern by the egyptian people for what's happening in palestine in particular and not exclusively about what's happening among the people in gaza. and there is no doubt that whatever government comes to power in egypt it's going to feel the pressures from the low to enable the palestinians or support the right of the palestinians to have a decent life in their own homeland on the other hand all of the egyptian potential candidates for president. who are interviewed so far all of them say that there is no intention to renounce the one nine hundred seventy nine egypt israeli peace treaty there are there is talk about really no we had a go she a

it remains unclear if a third candidate, a member of the muslim brotherhood, will run.he did, that might change the calculus. both candidates are towering figures in modern egypt. moussa having served as mubarak's foreign minister for ten years was then secretary-general of the arab league, in fact, still is for another month or so. mohamed elbaradei is best known for his work as head of the international atomic energy agency for which he received the nobel peace prize. in that role, he famously confronted the bush administration, pointing out that he had no evidence that saddam hussein was developing a nuclear weapons program. turned out he was right. the two of them, amir moussa and mohamed elbaradei, are friends for 40 years and former colleagues. in fact, they once shared an office at the egyptian foreign ministry as young diplomats. but they are different people with different perspectives. let's start with mohamed elbaradei who has been passionate about the need for a real transition to real democracy in egypt. mohamed elbaradei, thank you so much for joining us a

muslim communities in the english speaking world. and the saudis, too, are the bridge from our second source of concern in the persian gulf, the sau saudi kingdom to its brotherhood tyrannies, namely osama bin laden, al-qaeda, their allies and the increasing numbers of muslims inspired by each. when all is said and done, osama bin laden is not an anomaly in saudi arabia. rather, he's the poster boy for its educational system successes. fortunately for the united states and the west, bin laden has matured as a defensive and intestimo intestimo intestimony -- intemperant. even with these dibs however, the saudis missionary activities are an indispensable aid to al-qaeda's organizational, military and media activities. through expatriate leaders, the saudis have created muslim activities in most of the world that are alienated from and even hateful toward the west. and so these communities are continual environments for hosting an al-qaeda presence. in the balkans, in india and bangladesh, in the north caucuses in north asia, in north america, in europe, in sub-sahara and africa, these preachers, ngos and doses of saudi cash have for decades prepared the ground for

instead, hamass and the muslim brotherhood have a history of provide goods and services, food aid and medical care to those who would otherwise not have access to such necessities. the united states and our european allies must take action against such a tragedy. we have a tendency to think of this arab spring as one event. however, the event is are interesting. i'm interested in the wojts' assessment of what we're doing to support democratic forces in each country. i'm also interested in how these uprisings each individually impact the united states counterterrorism strategy and cooperation with european and eurasian allies. the death of osama bin laden marked a major victory, but let us be clear. the fight is far from over. the united states and her allies must stay committed to the counterterrorism mission in afghanistan and around the world. this subexcrete can do what it request to help. we'll continue to focus on terrorism and examine it from you'll angles. we'll be traveling extensively throughout europe to find out what our allies feel about all of these issues. i want to than

mubarak accused hamas as an ally of the muslim brotherhood, who are now a successful party in egypt, but regarded by him as an enemy. all has changed. hamas is much more comfortable dealing with the current egyptian government. hamas is very nervous about what is happening in the region, particularly the hamas leadership in damascus. and their own people have been pushing hard for this deal. the whole environment has changed. but for egypt this is a big feather in the capit. in just three months the new government has a deal. >> how much bitterness will they have to overcome if this is really going to work? >> it goes back four years. life has been lost and blood has been spilled. i spoke with a woman yesterday. her husband was killed. he was a is a , supporter killed in prison. she alleged that a it was tortured and beaten to death. i asked if she welcomed the unity deal and she said yes, but she could not forgive and was pretty skeptical about whether it was going to last. i think most palestinians welcome this, but they say it's one thing to have a deal in place, but let's wait an
