Muslim Brotherhood: Anti-Americanism Linked to Anti-Semitism

Anti-Americanism and anti-Semitism go hand-in-hand in the Muslim Brotherhood's ideology, as demonstrated in a recent speech by the group's leader Mohamed Badie. To Badie, the current problems in the Middle East have historical roots in a Jewish conspiracy, coupled with Masonic and American/Western elements.
"Allah has warned us the tricks of the Jews, and their role in igniting the fire of wars," Badie said in a speech posted to the Brotherhood's Arabic-language website on June 2 and translated by the Investigative Project on Terrorism. "The Almighty said: 'Every time they light the fires of war, Allah extinguishes them; and they labor hard to spread corruption on earth: and Allah does not love the spreaders of corruption."
According to Badie, "such was their [the Jewish] plot by night and by day to divide the Muslims, old and new." Their intentions could be traced from Napoleon to the founder of Zionism, Theodor Herzl, and on to the strife in Arab nations like Sudan. "We will only gain their land by feeding the fire of animosity between them, to facilitate their destruction by our hands," Badie claimed that Herzl said at a 1903 Masonic Conference.
As a part of this conspiracy, Badie argues that the West is in collaboration with the Jews. "O Muslims: I do not think that the West wants well for Muslims good," Badie said. "I do not imagine the Americo-Zionist alliance wants our blessed revolution to reach its objectives, in the forefront of which are: that we enjoy freedom in our land, that we be independent in our decision and that we have sovereignty over our homelands."
The speech underlines assertions that the Brotherhood has not reformed its ideology, despite public pronouncements on their website and in English-language comments to the media. The organization recently generated controversy by condemning the killing of Osama bin Laden, and for its support for terrorism and a shaky commitment to democratic principles.

Executive Summary
Submitted by Eddy Frekker, Nov 5, 2011 16:07
The use of phrases like "...we seek only peace and freedom..." are the only ones that make it to the executive summaries that presidents read. A fifty page report from State or the CIA or FBI will be boiled down to aphorisms and platitudes that reflect the president's preferences. it is a function of sycophants to soothe and support the object of their attentions and they do it regardless of the significance of the actual message.
Reasons are moot but the fact of this sort of 'censorship' is undeniable to anyone who has ever been a CEO of even a fairly small business. Once the enterprise outgrows individual supervision by it's owner factual information becomes harder and harder to acquire.
