If you believe that the Muslim Brotherhood should be identified as a terrorist organization / enemy of the United States, the claim from Hillary Clinton that the U.S. should ’empathize’ with its ‘enemies’ has a palpable degree of irony. Considering that Hillary’s very close advisor and former Deputy Chief of Staff Huma Abedin – who continues to remain at her side – has irrefutably extensive familial connections to the Muslim Brotherhood, Hillary’s call for ’empathy’ should be both telling and instructive.

Abedin’s mother Saleha is a leader with the Muslim Sisterhood along with the wife of Egypt’s former President and Muslim Brotherhood leader Mohammed Mursi. Abedin’s brother sat on boards with Muslim Brotherhood spiritual leader Yusuf al-Qaradawi. Huma herself worked for years at the Institute of Muslim Minority Affairs (IMMA), which was founded with the help of al-Qaeda financier Abdullah Omar Naseef, a Saudi, who also served on the IMMA board for a time.

Abedin’s bonafides as a Muslim Brotherhood plant notwithstanding, the notion that the solution to victory is empathizing with the Brotherhood is ludicrous. It is an organization that seeks world domination and a global caliphate. Empathizing with forces that want a caliphate will only get you… a caliphate.

In a speech at Georgetown University, Hillary spoke as if she’s been compromised by… the Muslim Brotherhood, which leads us back to Abedin, who has been with Hillary in various capacities since 1996.
