“To the Gradualist Brotherhood”

Shared by Junaid Dar

I was just reading the following article I thought it would be good to share with our TF and get some comments/feedback on the situation.  Can you please share. Thanks Junaid.

*** To The Gradualist Brotherhood —
Will You Do Things a Better Way? ***
Soon, the Muslim Brotherhood will
come to the same realization as others Gradualists (in the revival of Islam)
like the FIS (Algeria) and the Rafah Party (Turkey). One does not simply use
the post-colonial political system in Muslim countries against itself. It is
backed up, and underwritten, by the very foreign powers who created it as a
cage over us.
This is like walking into a Casino,
and using your money to play the gambling games, hoping that you’ll win enough
to buy the casino, and close it down. In reality, you’ve just wasted your money
and made the casino richer, because ‘The House Always Wins’.

The U.S. government realizes that
‘Islamist’ parties are popular – representing the people’s desire for a Islamic
system. However, they realized that though they cannot prevent such parties
coming to power now, the situation is not outside some means of control.
Namely, the U.S. merely has to allow these parties to get into a very limited
role of power, then ‘shut all the doors’ on them to make them appear to fail in
the people’s eyes. Since Morsi wasn’t willing, or able, to really change the
system – he and his party will be publicly hanged by it (as a warning to others).
Now the Muslim Brotherhood cries
foul, and demands that people respect democracy (i.e. that Morsi is an
legitimate elected leader). But they don’t understand why Liberals use
Democracy. Liberalism doesn’t exist to serve Democracy. Democracy exists to serve
Liberalism. This is why the U.S. constitution was created, because the founding
fathers of America didn’t trust the rule of the majority. The Constitution
defines the essential laws and rights, and people only elect leaders to
implement that Liberal constitution, or make laws WITHIN its limits [btw the
American public was not given a choice on the US constitution]. Does Morsi not
see that if Democracy doesn’t produce the result the Liberals want, they have
no problem with becoming violent to protect Liberalism, and ignoring democracy.
This fact should have been apparent from anyone who studied history.
The Brotherhood should have changed
the system, not just played games within it, hoping the system would allow them
to overturn it. Morsi tried to appease the USA and ISRAEL by shutting off Gaza
ever more than Mubarak did. He begged for foreign interest loans – even though
he should of confiscated the ill-gotten property of the Egyptian Military
industrial complex, and re-distributed to the poor. He could have changed the
economy of cotton production (for export to Western countries) into food
production for his own people. He tried to appease the Secularists by making
Egypt fall well short of a Islamic State – content to apply a Islamic
flavoring. But now he’ll find out that the two billion dollars the USA pays to
the mercenary Egyptian Generals, is not without strings. And the Egyptian
Military are the real kingmakers of Egypt – and they were only waiting until
the people turned against the Muslim Brotherhood, to depose them, or at least
render their power negligible in a ‘unity government’ (composed of the
pro-secular but electoral losers).
So instead of pushing towards the
goal of the re-establishment of Islam, the Muslim Brotherhood were the
unwitting pawns of a game designed to make Islamic movements look incompetent –
pushing back the work for revival back by decades.
However, now is not the time for
people to say ‘I told you so’ to the Gradualists, but to say ‘now, will you do
things a better way?’
It’s time for us to liberate our
‘kingmakers’ – then we will be free to submit our nations to Al Maalik (SWT).

One thought on ““To the Gradualist Brotherhood”

  1. I think it is a great article explaining Islamists’s actual positions, but it is a fantasy to think that general public wants Sharia Law. The public at large has moved on, but Islamists still has nostalgia of old days-that was also short lived. The people voted for Muslim Brotherhood because they still love their religion and do not want Western Ideology or Secularism rum their life. General public was mistaken in this regard, and after rude awakening that they cannot tolerate even Gradualist’s first installment of Sharia Law, they had buyer’s remorse and wanted their vote revoked.

    I think, West and Liberals made a big mistake by letting the Muslim Brotherhood off the hook by bringing in the Military coup. As is evident by above article, Islamists can still claim they would have succeeded if they were not taken out by force.

    Having said above, I do agree that West and Liberals are hypocritical and forget their own principals when convenient- and justify most egregious acts like arresting Muslim Brotherhood leaders and members!
