Muslim DHS adviser to Obama still defending Muslim Brotherhood

Creeping Sharia - Mohamed Elibiary, a Homeland Security adviser to President Obama, tweeted on June 28 that “Overthrowing #Morsi thru undemocratic means, whether protest or cop, is unacceptable.”

Elibiary compared the Muslim Brotherhood to evangelicals in American politics in a Twitter exchange Monday, after writing: “Y’all can hate on MB until you’re 6 feet under, but if you want to actually solve anything you’ll have 2engage them.”   Read More
 
American Islamists Rally Behind MB Amid Egypt Protests


Investigative Project on Terrorism - Instead of inspiring openness and tolerance in Egyptian society, the Muslim Brotherhood has pushed Egyptian society to its breaking point as the group has moved to consolidate power and transition Egypt into being a theocratic state subject to the group's interpretation of Islamic law.

The optimism even Christians and liberal Muslims felt in the wake of Mubarak's fall has given way to the realization that the Arab Spring has become an Islamist winter.

Morsi pitted Egyptian against Egyptian after seizing emergency powers and ramming through a theocratic constitution while using intimidation tactics against opponents last November and December. That episode helped to establish the pattern of repression and intimidation that characterized Morsi's year in power.

The Muslim Brotherhood notably condemned the U.N.'s declaration on women's rights in March, saying it would "lead to the complete disintegration of society" and bring about the moral cohesion of Islamic societies.

The March arrest of comedian Bassem Youssef, aka "Egypt's Jon Stewart, for "insulting Islam" and President Morsi on his show "al-Bermaneg" drove home the Muslim Brotherhood's totalitarian nature even for Western liberals who had previously applauded the regime.

In an April post, Elibiary questioned the legitimacy of public outcry over Youssef's arrest. "A lot of AstroTurf advocacy in media on this," Elibiary wrote on his Twitter feed. In politics, "AstroTurf" is a cynical term describing well-funded campaigns deceptively designed to appear grass-roots driven.
Human rights activists criticized the Muslim Brotherhood regime's stance on religious freedom and women's rights.

Since Morsi and the Muslim Brotherhood came to power, tens of thousands of Coptic Christians have fled their ancient homeland amid religious violence. The siege of St. Mark's Cathedral in Cairo in April, aided by police complicity with the Islamist radicals who besieged the Copts also illustrated the less than democratic nature of the Morsi era.

 
A senior Morsi aide responded to the siege by blaming the Copts, who protested against sectarian violence directed against them. Yet Elibiary defended the Muslim Brotherhood regime against claims that it has been working to force Christians out Egypt in a Twitter post Monday.   Read More
