On Bin Laden, Muslim Brotherhood Makes Different Statements in English and in Arabic

Sami al-Abasi   "By supporting violence against America’s troops in Muslim lands, the [Muslim Brotherhood] essentially defends the al-Qaeda campaigns in Afghanistan and Iraq.

"The text also instructs the United States to stop its intelligence operations in Muslim lands, the key source of information that led to bin Laden’s killing. It furthers support the “legitimate resistance” of Palestinian groups against Israel, and tells the U.S. to do the same.
So while the MB claims to have renounced violence, it has honored bin Laden as a sheikh and called for terrorism against American forces in Muslim lands.
