Muslim Brotherhood Wields Big Influence in Obama Administration

Family Security Matters

Many in the media are condemning  Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN) and four other congressmen who sent a letter to the  State Department Deputy Inspector General, and the IGs of four other agencies,  calling for investigations into the possible infiltration by the Muslim  Brotherhood (MB) of the State Department and other agencies. What’s gotten the  most attention is the fact that the letter to the State Department singled out  Huma Abedin, the State Department’s Deputy Chief of Staff,  who has been a close aide to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton going all the  way back to her time as First Lady, during the Clinton administration. Abedin is  also the wife of the disgraced former congressman from New York, Anthony  Weiner.

This has caused quite a ruckus, with charges of McCarthyism hurled at Rep.  Bachmann, and a split among Republicans, including Senators John McCain and  Lindsey Graham, plus Speaker of the House John Boehner, who have sharply  criticized Bachmann and the letters she and the others have sent. The Left is  having a field day, the conservatives and Republicans are scrambling to contain  the issue.

But there is a bigger picture here. Should we care if indeed the Muslim  Brotherhood has gained a foothold throughout the Middle East, and if they wield  significant influence within the Obama administration? Or does that make us  Islamophobic? What shouldn’t get lost in all this are the policies of the Obama  administration that have helped facilitate the ascendency of the Muslim  Brotherhood, particularly in Egypt. Investor’s Business Daily has made it  abundantly clear that that is exactly what has taken place. In the editorial,  titled “How  Obama Engineered Mideast Radicalization,” they lay out the following  timeline:

Proof that Huma Abedin Has Muslim Brotherhood Connections

American Thinker

Michele  Bachmann and four other Republican congressional representatives requested  “that no  Muslim Brotherhood-associated entity or individual [be] placed into a position  of honor or trust within the programs and operations of the Department of State  unless he or she has publicly condemned and disclaimed the previously stated  goals of the Muslim  Brotherhood.” At no time did these congressional representatives imply that  Huma Abedin, Deputy Chief of Staff for the State Department, was “part of a  nefarious conspiracy.”

Monday,  Walid Shoebat published this 37-page  booklet entitled “Proof: Huma has Ties to Muslim Brotherhood — Countless  Documents Surface” and this was followed up with Tuesday’s update that “Huma  Abedin Served on Board with Al-Qaeda  Godfather“.  Shoebat states that the latest discoveries “include but  are not limited to “[p]roof that Hillary Clinton’s Deputy Chief of Staff, Huma  Abedin served on the Board of IMMA from at least 12/02/02 – 9/24/08” and that  “Al-Qaeda Godfather Abdullah Omar Naseef served on IMMA’s Advisory Board from at  least 12/02/02 – 12/03/03.”

Is  this not sufficient to vindicate Michele Bachmann’s very reasonable  concerns?
