Who is my enemy?

http://www.nysun.com/article/56899 Found this link at LGF. If this is true, we have all be wasting our time. 3000+ American soldiers, Marines and Airmen/women have laid down their lives for pretty much nothing. The invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq were pointless.

'Today the State Department's Bureau of Intelligence and Research will host a meeting with other representatives of the intelligence community to discuss opening more formal channels to the brothers. Earlier this year, the National Intelligence Council received a paper it had commissioned on the history of the Muslim Brotherhood by a scholar at the Nixon Center, Robert Leiken, who is invited to the State Department meeting today to present the case for engagement. On April 7, congressional leaders such as Rep. Steny Hoyer of Maryland, the Democratic whip, attended a reception where some representatives of the brothers were present. The reception was hosted at the residence in Cairo of the American ambassador to Egypt, Francis Ricciardone, a decision that indicates a change in policy.

The National Security Council and State Department already meet indirectly with the Syrian Muslim Brotherhood through discussions with a new Syrian opposition group created in 2006 known as the National Salvation Front. Meanwhile, Iraq's vice president, Tariq al-Hashemi, is a leader of Iraq's chapter of the Muslim Brotherhood. His party, known as the Iraqi Islamic Party, has played a role in the Iraqi government since it was invited to join the Iraqi Governing Council in 2003.

These developments, in light of Hamas's control of Gaza, suggest that President Bush — who has been careful to distinguish the war on terror from a war on Islam — has done more than any of his predecessors to accept the movement fighting for the merger of mosque and state in the Middle East.'

Defining categories and then assigning real life objects and events to those categories sounds like a boring philosophical exercise. But it isn't. So, State Department, we are at war with 'Terror' but not with 'Islam'. In the 'Terror' category we have Al-Qaeda, various rag-tag bands of Islamists in North Africa and Saddam Hussein (apparently). And in the 'Islam' category we have the Muslim Brotherhood, CAIR, all those myriad of Saudi charities, virtually all the Moslems in India, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Somalia etc. Using this analysis, we definitely should have 'won' by now. And in fact, all the accusations by lefty idiots in the US about using a sledgehammer to crack a nut would also pertain. Sadly, the categories which have been created by the US government and intelligence agencies do not correspond with reality. Try this: 'The world not controlled by Wahhabists, including all the Moslem societies not yet penetrated by the Wahhabist shock troops' and 'Wahhabists and their political paymasters'.

Our enemy is Wahhabism, and its infiltration of Moslem societies all over the world. The Muslim Brotherhood is the most important Wahhabist group in the world, certainly outside Saudi Arabia. Sayyed Qutb, its founder, was the most important Wahhabist of the twentieth century. It has lots of money, controls Al-Jazeera, and the largest US Islamic advocacy group, CAIR. It is present in every Moslem country in the world, and its tentacles grow every day, wherever there are poor, ignorant, frustrated Moslem boys.

I'm not sure what the goals of the State Department are, but I bet you 100/1 they haven't a clue what role the Muslim Brotherhood plays in our current situation. The British realised quite quickly what a profound threat Wahhabism was in India, and took strong and effective steps to destroy it before it could infect much of Hindustan and Bengal. It seems to me that to the portentious grand masters-of-the-universe at the State Department, none of these johnny foreigners is a genuine threat to the US, and who gives a toss which unpronounceable and fanatical group says what. Just leave us alone! How much do we have to bribe you to go away and let us do our business?

Guess what? There is no amount of money sufficient to bribe these people. There is nothing you can offer them that they want except your submission to Wahhabism and Allah. They want to erase you and your influence from the world, starting with countries where Moslems live, and then progressing on to everywhere else. They are implacable, suicidal and utterly impervious to persuasion. So what exactly are you going to discuss with these people, State Department chinless wonders? Terms of surrender? How is it that many ordinary Americans who have done their homework know exactly what the Muslim Brotherhood is, why it is a threat, and how they'd prefer to deal with it, but you don't? If you have a highly infectious disease, you don't go to the local gossip and have a chat about it. You go to the doctor, and he hits it with whatever drugs can totally annihilate it.

We can only be grateful that in the past, America's enemies did the equivalent of holding up huge signboards saying WE ARE YOUR ENEMIES. It seems that unless America's enemies do this, their useless governing class are oblivious.
