Americans are understandably concerned about terrorism. After all, there have been horrific attacks on American soil, and several more planned attacks were aborted before they could be carried out. But if Americans think that all they need to worry about is preventing terror attacks, they are missing the main threat posed by the Muslim Brotherhood and its associated groups. Because as traumatic and painful that these attacks have been, they do not pose a real danger to the American way of life. But there is something that does --
Consider the mission statement of the Muslim Brotherhood in America, issued in 1991: “It is a kind of grand jihad in eliminating and destroying Western civilization from within…sabotaging its miserable house from within…by [our] hands and the hands of the believers so that God’s religion is made victorious over all other religions.”
The Muslim Brotherhood? Didn't James Clapper, the Director of National Intelligence, say that they are a "largely secular group"? And non-violent?
Oh, Really? Here is what Steven Emerson, well-known expert on terrorism, says:
Which one do you believe, in light of world events today?
Why is the Director of National Intelligence is so relaxed about the Muslim Brotherhood?
The following are excerpted passages from the book Sharia - the Threat to America - An Exercise in Competitive Analysis - Report of Team B II, CSPPress.
As this report will demonstrate, there is plenty of blame to go around. The fact is that, under both political parties, the U.S. government has comprehensively failed to grasp the true nature of this enemy - an adversary that fights to reinstate the totalitarian Islamic caliphate and impose shariah globally.

Our leadership generally has also failed to appreciate the complementary subversion campaigns posed by groups like the Muslim Brotherhood - groups that fully share the objectives of the violent jihadists but believe that, for the moment at least, more stealthy, "pre-violent" means of jihad are likely to prove more effective in achieving those goals.
---
By neglecting their professional duty to understand the doctrinal and legal basis of jihad, policymakers commit national resources in blood and treasure to foreign battlefields without ever realizing that what we must fight for is not just security from Islamist suicide bombers. Rather, we must also preserve here at home the system of government, laws, and freedoms guaranteed by our Constitution. Our national leaders and military intelligence officers took oaths to "support and defend" the Constitution that is now being targeted by those foreign and domestic enemies who seek our submission to shariah.
I live in Israel. Here, there are dangers posed by Islamists too, but stealthy infiltration into our government institutions is not one of them. Our leaders and our population are more aware of the Islamists' intentions than in other Western countries, and are not susceptible to that sort of subversion.
The United States is geographically far away from the seat of Islamic activism, so it's easy - much too easy - to imagine that there is no threat to America other than the occasional terror attack. The United States must, of course, continue to be vigilant about the activities of terrorists, but a greater awareness of the true nature of Islamic activity must also be developed. Yes, some of it is innocent, just as there are many Muslims who eschew violence. But the darker side of Islam must not be ignored.
Inform yourselves. And maybe, after learning what goes on under the surface, you will become proud "islamphobes". Because there actually is something to fear from groups such as the Muslim Brotherhood, who aspire to insinuate themselves into American institutions and use the Americans' very freedoms to take those freedoms away.
