The Muslim Brotherhood vs. Al Qaeda - which is more dangerous? (videos included)

Americans Stand with Israel

First, let us begin with the following video:

Terrorism breeds more terrorism - that is what the video demonstrates; it is Islamic terrorism spreading across the world - a global Jihad and one can hardly determine which Islamic group is worse than the other. Which Muslim group/organization is the most dangerous?  My answer would be the one targeting me at the moment! For example, yesterday Gaza shipped a bunch of rockets into Israel - beginning around 6:30 PM and while reports from Israel state "no one was injured", the terror of having rockets raining down upon your city does not take away from the fact that the Palestinian Hamas Muslim terrorist organization is an ever-present threat to Israeli citizens.  

Now, on occasion, when Hamas fears Israel has had enough and plans to respond to missile attacks, Hamas has previously claimed that it wasn't them that shot the rockets, it was some other terrorist group in Gaza (Al-Qaeda?) shooting off the rockets.  Whoa!  You mean there are more than one group of terrorists in Gaza?  Of course there are, because terrorism breeds terrorism.  However, since Hamas are the "leaders" of Gaza, they are responsible for whatever its groups within are sending out to Israel and in this case, its missiles and rockets for the sole intent of murdering Israeli citizens.  

Ask our troops fighting Islamic terrorism these past ten years which Muslim group is the most dangerous and they would reply, "the group shooting at us" - plain and simple.  Today, it may be a rag tag group under the banner of Al-Qaeda and tomorrow, it could be the Taliban.  What's the difference between these groups? None - absolutely no difference; they just fly a different flag and some, no flag; and all wear no particular military uniforms representing a particular nation, because as terrorists, all they need is a weapon, usually a mask to hide their identity, and a few Muslim buddies to attack innocent civilians and cause great suffering all over the world (see video above).  

As the video demonstrates, Islam is not a religion of "peace", unless you want to count pieces of body parts.

Now that we have determined that among terrorists groups, there is no difference, would you explain to me how our administration has decided that the Muslim Brotherhood are America's "friends", because they are less dangerous than Al-Qaeda?

James Clapper Cites Brotherhood as Defense against Al-Qaeda

U.S. National Intelligence Director Cites Muslim Brotherhood As Bulwark Against Al-Qaeda
In his statement for the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, U.S. Director of National Intelligence James Clapper appears to endorse the concept Muslim Brotherhood involvement in the Mideast political process will serve as some kind of bulwark against Al-Qaeda and other such groups. He writes:
If, over the longer term, governments take real steps to address public demands for political participation and democratic institutions—and remain committed to CT efforts—we judge that core al-Qaeda and the global jihadist movement will experience a strategic setback. Al Qaeda probably will find it difficult to compete for local support with groups like the Muslim Brotherhood that participate in the political process, provide social services, and advocate religious values. Nonviolent, pro-democracy demonstrations challenge al Qaeda’s violent jihadist ideology and might yield increased political power for secular or moderate Islamist parties.

Really?  Mr. Clapper believes the MB is "good" vs. the "evil" Al Qaeda?  He has decided that some terrorists groups are not as dangerous as Al Qaeda!!  That is as foolish as telling the victim they have two choices: they can die either by hanging or by beheading; or, a third choice, by a plane hitting a tall building while you are busy working and making plans for the future of your family.

The Brotherhood vs. Al-Qaeda: A Moment Of Truth?

Current Trends in Islamist Ideology vol. 9
Al-Qaeda built its ideological doctrine largely in opposition to the Muslim Brotherhood’s pervasive and once dominant approach to Islam’s political revival. For many years, the Muslim Brotherhood attempted to ignore al-Qaeda’s challenge and concentrated instead on beefing up its own organizational and ideological alternative to the ruling secular regimes in the Arab world and elsewhere. This pattern changed dramatically after September 11, 2001, when it became more difficult for the Brotherhood to disregard al-Qaeda and the two movements began competing more openly for leadership of the overall Islamist movement.
At the core of the dispute between al-Qaeda and the Muslim Brotherhood lies a clash between two different conceptions of jihad and its purposes under contemporary circumstances. Al-Qaeda projects a global agenda, where every Muslim land—“from Granada to Kashgar,” as Ayman al-Zawahiri has put it—needs to be “liberated” from non-Islamic rule. Jihad is conceived of as an individual duty that all Muslims must fulfil by struggling in word and deed against any representative of the “Jews and Crusaders,” as well as against ‘apostate’ Muslim governments. The Muslim Brotherhood, by contrast, has for reasons both ideological and tactical tended in recent decades to embrace a more limited conception of jihad combined with missionary activity and organized political struggle. The Brotherhood, for instance, has officially renounced the use of revolutionary violence to overturn existing Muslim states. Moreover, while the movement has fervently supported armed struggle against non-Islamic forces in places like Iraq, they have also sought to offer an alternative jihadism to al-Qaeda’s sectarianism, and the Brotherhood’s Iraqi branch has come in recent years to embrace the U.S.-backed political system of post-Saddam Iraq. Likewise, the Brotherhood-offshoot Hamas, which since 2006 has officially ruled over the Gaza strip, is the first Palestinian militia to consistently limit its activities to the territory of pre-1948 Palestine—meaning Israel, the West Bank and Gaza.
No, Mr. Clapper, you are 100% wrong!  The Muslim Brotherhood is NOT a defense against Al Qaeda and terrorists are terrorists - they need no other name or organization to identify themselves - just plain "terrorists" will do!
