Poor babies. They can't have their totalitarian ideology and eat it, too. And isn't that "image" merely a product of the Brotherhood's tactic of painting itself in a veneer of "moderation"? Wasn't the Center for American Progress founded with George Soros funding? http://www.discoverthenetworks.org/printgroupProfile.asp?grpid=6709

Isn't that "image" as devious and dissimulating as the Brotherhood wishes it to be in order to enable the U.S. to help destroy its "miserable house"? Doesn't it conform to the tactic of posing as a non-threatening force to beguile its critics? Why should anyone sympathize or empathize with Zogby, Eposito, or Hanna over their concerns over the "damage" to the Brotherhood's laboriously contrived image as a "positive" force for "change" anywhere, whether it's the Mideast or the U.S.? Sorry, but I'm not buying the idea that Zogby et al. are really concerned. They'll merely redouble their efforts to make the Brotherhood seem "respectable." From where I sit, that panel discussion is merely taqiyya posing as damage control. The Brotherhood's means and ends will remain the same, one of which has been to infiltrate the U.S. government on virtually all levels, from the White House to the DOD. If Zogby et al. had announced that the Brotherhood should be repudiated and disbanded, then I'd believe him. As it stands, they're about as credible had Goebbels and Himmler hosted a panel discussion about the Nazis' "image" problem.
