Trump Wants To Hurt The Muslim Brotherhood. American Muslims Could Pay The Price.

"Trump Wants To Hurt The Muslim Brotherhood. American Muslims Could Pay The Price.

Designating the Brotherhood a terror group would weaken American alliances, boost violent extremists and endanger Muslim organizations in the U.S.

For years, anti-Muslim hate groups in the U.S. — many of them with deep ties to Bolton and Pompeo — have promoted conspiracy theories attempting to tie political opponents and prominent American Muslim organizations to the Muslim Brotherhood. Frank Gaffney, a former Pentagon official and head of the Center for Security Policy, an anti-Muslim think tank, has baselessly linked the Muslim Brotherhood to such figures as Hillary Clinton aide Huma Abedin and conservative activist Grover Norquist.

While these anti-Muslim groups and their advocacy for the terror designation were once relegated to the fringe of American politics, they have real influence in Trump’s White House."
