This would be transformative in ending the subversion and infiltration of Muslim Brotherhood-linked groups such as the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR).
“Cruz reintroduces bill to label Muslim Brotherhood as terrorist group,” JNS, December 7, 2020:
Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) has reintroduced a bill that calls on the U.S. State Department to designate the Muslim Brotherhood as a terrorist group.
His office announced on Dec. 2 that the senator is again pushing for the Muslim Brotherhood Terrorist Designation Act, which requires the State Department to report to Congress about whether the transnational Sunni Islamist organization founded in Egypt meets the legal criteria for designation.
The bill is co-sponsored by Sens. Jim Inhofe (R-Okla.), Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) and Pat Roberts (R-Kan.).
“I am proud to reintroduce this bill and to advance America’s fight against radical Islamic terrorism,” said Cruz in a statement released by his office. “I commend the current administration’s work calling terrorism by its name and combating the spread of this potent threat, and I look forward to receiving the additional information this new bill requests from the Department of State.
“Many of our closest allies in the Arab world have long ago concluded that the Muslim Brotherhood is a terrorist group that seeks to sow chaos across the Middle East, and I will continue working with my colleagues to take action against groups that finance terrorism.”
In the same statement, Inhofe said “since the founding of the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt, Brotherhood-affiliated groups have consistently preached and incited hatred against Christians, Jews and other Muslims while supporting designated radical terrorists.”…

That law ought to be passed by Congress, but I doubt that a CAIR affiliated Democrat party, which runs the House, will pass it

Thank you Senators. Sanity still exists.

No, the UK has so many Muslims now that it is suicide to introduce this bill.

They have nothing to do with this, and contribute nothing to our understanding of this story.
And, CAIR does this while deliberately ignoring jihad attacks, and obnoxious Muslim.

Voices in the wilderness. However, everyone needs to drop the “radical” term. We all know by now that this is traditional Islam. Unfortunately, it would beg the question as to why Islam shouldn’t be outlawed. I believe the Chinese have already answered that question for themselves in their own ruthless way. I suppose they got tired of their citizens being knifed to death in their own subways. Islam should be confined to the hellhole countries from which they’re nurtured. And that includes their Muslim citizens. It might have spared Mr. Paty his life.

According to the feature article:
“The bill is co-sponsored by Sens. Jim Inhofe (R-Okla.), Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) and Pat Roberts (R-Kan.)”
Why no Democrats?

Because opposing islamic terrorism is racist.
eduardo odraude says
Islam’s most trusted sources repeatedly describe Muhammad as “white,” and show that Muhammad bought, owned, sold, and traded black African slaves.

I’m aware of that. And besides, islam isn’t a race. My point was that this is how most “progressive” virtual signaling hypocrites think.

Thank you Ron Johnson, this organization was identified as a terrorist group dressed in suits since the HLF trail at a privotal movement just as Ob entered the White House and it was deep sixed and then denied. It was operational and protected for far too long from most of the public who would have considered it” hate speech”, just to mention the name by those who denied it’s purpose, methods or existence so the mass migration could not be impeded, they called a civilization jihad.

Good point, James.
somehistory says
Long, long ago, the mb should have been declared in violation of RICO. All of its members should have been arrested, charged, fined, imprisoned and then sent out to sea on leaky boats for a shark dinner.
Egypt had banned the mb, but when ‘o’ went there in ’09, he insisted that the members be given front row seats for his speech…and it happened. (I would consider that torture.)
obl was a member of the mb and was encouraged by that terror org to start another terror org, which he did and named it al queda (the core) of islam.
c.a.i.r. and hamas, the msa, the icna, and other moslim groups all are part of the mb as the mb is the umbrella group for the evil moslim creeps who fund, encourage, and carry out acts of terrorism across the globe.
If ‘o’ had not been elected president, if someone who knows islam, who knows what moslims want, what the goals are, and was paying attention to what the mb wrote about their goal of “destroying the miserable house from within,” had been in the driver’s seat, perhaps so much of what has happened, would not have. ‘o’ knew, but was in agreement with the mb.
ill omar and r tlaib have both worked for the mb.
There is a law in the U.S. that allows members of certain organizations to be arrested for being members even when the organization is not outlawed.
Compare the mb to the AB…whose members are arrested for being members…and see what the authorities are allowing that should not be.
If the SD is still run by the plants of ‘o,’ probably nothing will happen…stalling until biden and harris have been illegally installed.

Daniel Triplett says
Perhaps that would be a better way to approach this:
Instead of initially indicting the US Ummah at large for Criminal Conspiracy / RICO, which would face strong Leftist woke virtue-signaler resistance, perhaps a better strategy is to begin going after a specific organization, like MB. Then another specific organization. Then another.
After doing that several times, then perhaps it would be easier to coalesce public support and political consensus toward the judiciary by articulating “Islam” in entirety is the Criminal Conspiracy / RICO, the ‘superior’ organization that all the subordinate organizations obey.
As Adolf Hitler said:
“The clever conqueror always makes his demands on the conquered by a series of small installments.”
He, and the Ummah across 1400 years, have used this strategy with success.
So, we could use the strategy in reverse by judicially challenging Islam with a “series of small installments.”
Of course, personally, I’d like to reconcile the whole war tomorrow morning. But in a Republic, we need buy-in from the Left and the Right, which takes time. So, perhaps the public appetite for war victory would be more successfully developed in stages.
somehistory says
They wouldn’t have to wait for the SD to tell them what they have asked for before it’s declared a terror org. Because they know its members have engaged in terrorism, all they would have to do is get the evidence together that shows 2 acts within the last ten years.
Besides the other types of crimes that are covered under the statute that they probably already know about…murder for hire, extortion, etc.
Rudy G. tried a case against the Mafia back in the ’70’s. He could help an attorney assemble a case against the mb.
There is the Federal RICO and something like 35 States that also have RICO laws.
It’s possible. Those with the authority just need to get it all together.
If Pamela Geller had evidence that the guys who tried to kill her were part of the mb, that is one act of terrorism. The attack in Texas on the art contest might have been committed by mb members. Civil law applies to these also.
Research and a knowledgeable approach is needed.
somehistory says
As for going after bits…when cair puts pressure on a company, civic org, or other entity to cancel a speaker, change wording, etc. “or else,” that is extortion. Extortion is one of the main crimes of “racketeering” and they should have been charged for numerous violations for this practice alone.
That “doctor” in MI who was cutting and mutilating little girls…and probably still is.. should have been tried under RICO.. as what she did could be considered racketeering under the terms of this statute. She had at least two offenses within the ten year time frame. An “enterprise” doesn’t have to be a giant org to qualify for this law to affect them. And the children were carried across multiple state lines.
The authorities just need to care enough and get busy before there will be so many moslims sitting on benches that “slam-dunk’ suits will be lost.
Daniel Triplett says
You make great points. I think it makes a lot of sense to attack Islam with existing Conspiracy Law / RICO Act, rather than having to convince legislators to produce new legislation, which would face much political resistance.
I’ve been promoting this strategy elsewhere, beyond just this forum.

But This WON’T be done ~
If This happens, it will inspire Other Nations Who May Also acquire some guts to ban the mb ~

Big deal. The FIB would just designate that group under the heading of right wing White supremacists.
underbed cat says
Of course they would, they would follow sharia law to protect it by fibs of omission and negative labeling. Thats a given, they had to protect themselves, but should have studied further to protect our citizens they may have been deceived or worse is my guess.

Cruz reintroduces bill to designate Muslim Brotherhood a terrorist group
…………..
Good for Ted Cruz–hope this passes!
eduardo odraude says
Yes, the MB seeded many terror organizations and like them, works toward the spread of a sharia ethos and eventually the actual implementation of Sharia. The MB has infiltrated the American government and society pretty effectively, for example through CAIR, but also through many other mainstream Islamic organizations in the US.
underbed cat says
Just google the lists of mosques in the United States especially around all major cities in America it is shocking. they have been plenty busy…..even in and especially in or near major gas and oil centers in the U.S. This is significant and also near military bases that can bring big problems.

He’s doing it now – when it risks being vetoed by a potential president Biden? What held him back the last 4 years, when it could have passed and been signed by the president?
I’m guessing that this does not need House approval, right?

The Democrats will not vote for that bill, and when Biden gets into the White House, he will willingly invite and welcome members of the Islamic Brotherhood, as did his former boss.

Is he not in reality putting this up for a vote (only) for people to see which Senators do not vote yes?
Force a show of cards?

I don’t think there is any reason to suppose that Senator Cruz does not want this to pass.
roberta says
Im sure he would like it to pass. But it wont, and dem traitors will be the reason.
I think he knows that. Therefor its not passing will further draw the distinction between Patriots and traitors.
We seem to be at a time when the lines have to be made clear to the blind.

“I am proud to reintroduce this bill and to advance America’s fight against radical Islamic terrorism,”….why don’t they just drop the word ‘radical’? Terrorism is terrorism just as Islam is Islam. We know what they mean and represent. Although not all do,unfortunately.

I take your point–but I am just glad to see this bill introduced at all.

“I am proud to reintroduce this bill and to advance America’s fight against radical Islamic terrorism,”
And he should add that Muslims around the world would support that fact and join with him to defend their beliefs.

The MB should be BANNED – what is the hold up????????????????????? JUST DO IT.

Sen.Cruz is right the M.B. is a terrorist organization fully supporting the Islamic world domination plans. It will be vary interesting to see which Senators vote against his ban.
patriot eagle says
Search Center for Security Policy web site for Arkansas and Louisiana Resolutions warning police to distance themselves from CAIR (doing business as HAMAS) and search for the MB Explanatory Memorandum. As mentioned by other commenters, we must refine our response to such threats to the US Constitution the Islamic threat doctrine. Law enforcement will need effective tools of enforcement, for instance:
“If any person visits once or is a regular member of a mosque and is involved in a kinetic attack then automatically the mosque will be investigated immediately without having any federal agent or employee of the federal government or local police department who identifies as a Muslim (because of its Islamic threat doctrine) or a non-Muslim who is sympathic to or an apologist for Islam on such investigative team or have any part of a 3rd party advisory group, having a part, present or influence in such investigation or of its management or in the chain of command or among its advisors up to and including the head of the DOJ, Such investigation team shall have had prior training with annual recertification in Islamic ideology, threat, conquer and terror doctrine and be aware of activity in Islamic nations of the world to include those nations where there is persecution of Christians, Jews, Hindus, Shikh, heretical Muslims or other minorities as reported by non-Islamic persons with knowledge. In other words, law enforcement needs to beware of the total global context of the intentions reflected in the obligatory Islamic doctrine with no override in the chain of command to block, dilute, mitigate, or redirect such investigation to successfully reach a resolution of such kinetic attacks, in compliance with the State and US Constitutions.” – patriot eagle (not copyrighted, share at will)
Comments and refinements are welcome. I hope this simulates a wider national awareness and discussion as to the need for this or improved version thereof. This needs to be discussed among law enforcement, politicians, attorneys, judges, policy makers, bureaucrats and DC think tanks. State and local law enforcement must develop the capacity to stop relying on federal agencies and take ownership of such cases by virtue of the State and US Constitutions to defend it against all enemies foreign and domestic. The oath stands.

Each of must ask this question to our Senators! Will you co-sponsor the bill Sen. Cruz just introduced, S. 68, the Muslim Brotherhood Terrorist Designation Act, if not, why not?
