JOHN KERRY INVITED TO GIVE KEYNOTE AT MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD EVENT

Former U.S. Presidential candidate, current U.S. Senator, and Chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, John Kerry has been invited to give the concluding keynote speech at a Muslim Brotherhood event on April 28th, 2010. While Kerry's attendance has not been confirmed, it would seem that he should have distanced himself from this event the second he was invited. Then again, we are talking about John Kerry.

I covered this story on my February 28th radio show as well. Not only is Kerry invited to give the concluding keynote but the grandson of the Muslim Brotherhood founder Hassan al-Banna will be giving the luncheon keynote. Courtesy of the Global Muslim Brotherhood Daily Report (GMBDR):

The Center for the Study of Islam and Democracy (CSID) has announced its 11th Annual Conference to be held in April and which is scheduled to feature prominent representatives of the U.S. government along with global Muslim Brotherhood figures including Tariq Ramadan, recently cleared for entry into the U.S. by the U.S. State Department. According to the CSID announcement the conference, titled “U.S. Relations with the Muslim World: One Year After Cairo”, will feature Ramadan as luncheon keynote speaker and, listed only as “invited”, Senator John Kerry as giving the concluding keynote. Also scheduled to speak at the conference are Salah Ali Abdulrahman, head of the Muslim Brotherhood of Bahrain, and Ruhail Gharaibeh the deputy leader of the political wing of the Jordanian Muslim Brotherhood.

al-Banna's grandson, Tariq Ramadan is now free to enter the United States thanks to the stroke of Hillary Clinton's pen.

Here is a link to the page on the CSID website that lists Kerry as the invited concluding keynote speaker. Notice the name of the group is CSID but it is basically a who's who of the Muslim Brotherhood. Perhaps that is because the latter has built quite a negative reputation.

Just in case, I've captured the image of the part on the CSID event schedule that includes the Kerry invite as well as the date, time, and address of the event.

How about some history of the Muslim Brotherhood? It was formed in 1928 by al-Banna, who had a close personal friend named Amin Al-Husseini, who developed an extremely close alliance with Adolf Hitler in WWII. Hitler even put Husseini in charge of the Bosnian Muslim troops. The two met on more than one occasion.

In fact, the deaths of hundreds of thousands of Jews can be attributed to Al-Husseini. Via Tell the Children the Truth:

Muslim Brotherhood established in Egypt by Hassan El Banna [viii] in 1928. Amin Al-Husseini becomes a central member and ideological inspiration [ix] for the Muslim Brotherhood. Mother organization for today’s Egyptian Islamic Jihad and Hamas [x] . The Muslim Brotherhood preaches Wahhabi Islam [xi] , which justifies violent means to rid the ‘Muslim world’ of its non-Islamic element. It envisions a Pan-Islamic Empire, where strict Islamic law rules over all.

If Ramadan publicly denounced the Muslim Brotherhood and the actions of its founders and early leaders, like his grandfather and his grandfather's friend al-Husseini, that point may be valid. If the grandson of the KKK had an event today and members of the KKK were in attendance, would it matter what they said in their group's defense?

Should John Kerry appear at this event, he may just trump Al Gore as the biggest hypocrite of the modern world. Based on what you now know about the Muslim Brotherhood, take a look at Kerry's 1971 Senate testimony again.
