HANDOUT THAT ACCOMPANIES VIDEO FOR THIS PRESENTATION.
"... new reality makes identifying and understanding the Islamic doctrinal basis of our Jihadist enemies all the more important, yet with each passing attack, we seem to be getting further and further away from doing so."
Christopher Holton of the Center for Security Policy discussed what America faces in addition to the threat of violent jihad another, an even more toxic danger — a stealthy and pre-violent form of warfare aimed at destroying our constitutional form of democratic government and free society. The Muslim Brotherhood is the prime mover behind this seditious campaign, which it calls "civilization jihad."
Civilizational Jihad is succeeding through government, finance, military institutions...and though our schools.

The MusliITI Brotherhood today is the· politicaH wing of the global Jihadist
insurgency. AI Qaeda, HAMAS and :::limilar orl:ranizations are the ITIilitant
wing.
The MusliITI Brotherhood is the origillLal Islanlic terrorist organization. It
inspired all the Jihadist terrorist orJ.ll::llization~: that exist today and in fact
spun off AI Qaeda and HAMAS.
Called the Ikhwan (llrabic for "Bro " E:,:rsll) the MusliITI Brotherhood was
founded in Egypt in 1928 by Hassan iCi l Banna.! less than 4 years after the
fall of the Caliphate (in the form oftllrc OffomaJ.:rt Empire). The goal of the
organization was to insulate the Islcup:lic world from Western influence
and seek re-establislunent of the CaJ~,phate frtllm Spain to Indonesia
ruled by 5hariah law. This is the exadt .sazne goal as terrorist
organizations.

This secretive organization has a velly violent past, but some claim that it
·
gave up violence years ago~ There is1c!videnc,:! to indicate that it is still
involved in violence despite denials!.
Muslim Brotherhood Motto:
- Allah is our objective.
- The Prophet is our leader.
- Qur'an is our law.
- Jihad is our way.
- Dying in the way of Allah is our highm::t hope.

24. Perhaps what is most important for Westerners
to know, shariah can be a~curately described as
reactionary, deliberately vague and, in its
implementation, barbaric.
25. Shariah mandates as a religious obligation:
Violent jihad against non-Muslims to establish Islam's rule worldwide
(known as the caliphate).
The killing of apostates from Islam.
,I
The killing of adulterers and homosexuals.
Severe discrimination against women. This includes persecution of

.
-
adultery. Often these wome" are in reality victirns of rape.
Barbaric punishment (limb amputations, gouging out of eyes) for petty
crimes such as theft.
Severe discrimination against, and the subjugation of, non-Mulims.
For those Muslims who cannot engage in physical jihad using force,
shariah mandates that they supporljihad financially-jihad with money.
