Congress Is Right to Target the Muslim Brotherhood
Designating the Brotherhood a Terrorist Organization Is a Necessary Stand Against Radical Subversion
Congress Finally Acts, and It’s Long Overdue
Congress is advancing legislation to designate the Muslim Brotherhood as a terrorist organization. This isn’t a controversial overreach; it’s a long-overdue move against a global network that hides behind religious language while actively working to undermine Western institutions. Resistance to this designation comes not from facts, but from propaganda and fear of political backlash.
The Brotherhood’s Goals Aren’t Peaceful
The Muslim Brotherhood was founded in 1928 with a clear aim: the creation of an Islamic state ruled by Sharia law. It is not simply a religious or cultural movement. It has inspired, incubated, and supported violent organizations like Hamas and even influenced Al-Qaeda’s ideology.
Across the world, including in Europe and the United States, it operates under the cover of religious advocacy and civil rights, positioning itself as a moderate voice while pursuing a long-term political agenda.
A Terror Designation Carries Real Weight
Labeling the Brotherhood a terrorist organization is not symbolic. It has real impact. It would allow federal agencies to:
Freeze assets
Investigate affiliated groups
Disrupt funding channels
This move would also empower law enforcement and intelligence agencies to pursue deeper counterterrorism efforts without being blocked by legal ambiguity.
How the Brotherhood Uses Propaganda and Identity Politics
The Muslim Brotherhood has repeatedly demonstrated its ability to exploit American values like freedom of religion and speech to shield itself from scrutiny. It presents as a victim whenever challenged and uses American civil rights language not to promote genuine religious freedom, but to avoid accountability.
This is not speculation. In the Holy Land Foundation trial, the largest terrorism financing case in U.S. history, prosecutors revealed documents outlining the Brotherhood’s internal strategy for North America. One such document, An Explanatory Memorandum on the General Strategic Goal for the Group in North America, described a plan to conduct a "civilizational jihad" by using American institutions to quietly advance its ideology.
Through affiliated organizations in the U.S., the Brotherhood reframes legitimate national security concerns as civil rights violations and labels critics as bigots or racists. Any attempt to designate the Brotherhood as a terrorist organization will, without question, be met with loud and coordinated accusations of Islamophobia and religious persecution. If those accusations haven’t already begun, they will soon. This is not a spontaneous reaction. It is a calculated political strategy designed to intimidate lawmakers, sway public opinion, and halt the legislative process. They will predictably attempt to frame national security measures as attacks on Islam in order to block action and continue operating under the radar.
Political Correctness Is Their Best Weapon
In today’s political climate, many are more afraid of being called intolerant than of tolerating extremism. The Brotherhood exploits this fear. It uses sympathetic media voices, activist organizations, and international NGOs to recast terrorism concerns as civil rights issues.
This is not about religion. It is about political manipulation, and guilt is the lever.
It’s Time to Call This Threat What It Is
Refusing to identify ideological threats allows them to grow unchecked. The longer we pretend the Muslim Brotherhood is just another civic organization, the more space it gains to expand its influence and erode the foundations of democratic societies.
Congress must act decisively. The Brotherhood is not a misunderstood movement. It is a hostile, organized force pursuing long-term subversion.
Conclusion: A Necessary Step Toward Clarity and Security
Congress is finally stepping up, even as critics attempt to paint the move as discriminatory. But facts matter more than feelings. The Muslim Brotherhood’s record speaks for itself, and its threat is real.
We cannot allow propaganda and political correctness to paralyze national security. Designating the Muslim Brotherhood as a terrorist organization is not just justified. It is essential.
