Egyptian Magazine: Muslim Brotherhood Infiltrates Obama Administration

An Egyptian magazine claims that six American Islamist activists who work with the Obama administration are Muslim Brotherhood operatives who enjoy strong influence over U.S. policy.
The Dec. 22 story published in Egypt's Rose El-Youssef magazine (read an IPT translation here) suggests the six turned the White House "from a position hostile to Islamic groups and organizations in the world to the largest and most important supporter of the Muslim Brotherhood."
The story is largely unsourced, but its publication is considered significant in raising the issue to Egyptian readers.
The six named people include: Arif Alikhan, assistant secretary of Homeland Security for policy development; Mohammed Elibiary, a member of the Homeland Security Advisory Council; Rashad Hussain, the U.S. special envoy to the Organization of the Islamic Conference; Salam al-Marayati, co-founder of the Muslim Public Affairs Council (MPAC); Imam Mohamed Magid, president of the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA); and Eboo Patel, a member of President Obama's Advisory Council on Faith-Based Neighborhood Partnerships.
Alikhan is a founder of the World Islamic Organization, which the magazine identifies as a Brotherhood "subsidiary." It suggests that Alikhan was responsible for the "file of Islamic states" in the White House and that he provides the direct link between the Obama administration and the Arab Spring revolutions of 2011.
Elibiary, who has endorsed the ideas of radical Muslim Brotherhood luminary Sayyid Qutb, may have leaked secret materials contained in Department of Homeland Security databases, according to the magazine. He, however, denies having any connection with the Brotherhood.
Elibiary also played a role in defining the Obama administration's counterterrorism strategy, and the magazine asserts that Elibiary wrote the speech Obama gave when he told former Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak to leave power but offers no source or evidence for the claim.
According to Rose El-Youssef, Rashad Hussain maintained close ties with people and groups that it says comprise the Muslim Brotherhood network in America. This includes his participation in the June 2002 annual conference of the American Muslim Council, formerly headed by convicted terrorist financier Abdurahman Alamoudi.
He also participated in the organizing committee of the Critical Islamic Reflection along with important figures of the American Muslim Brotherhood such as Jamal Barzinji, Hisham al-Talib and Yaqub Mirza.
Regarding al-Marayati, who has been among the most influential Muslim American leaders in recent years, the magazine draws connections between MPAC in the international Muslim Brotherhood infrastructure.
Magid heads ISNA, which was founded by Brotherhood members, was appointed by Obama in 2011 as an adviser to the Department of Homeland Security. The magazine says that has also given speeches and conferences on American Middle East policy at the State Department and offered advice to the FBI.
Rose El-Youssef says Patel maintains a close relationship with Hani Ramadan, the grandson of Brotherhood founder Hasan al-Banna, and is a member of the Muslim Students Association, which it identifies as "a large Brotherhood organization."

Cover Up!

Why isn't FoxNews carrying this story or Jay Sekulow? We need both of those news agencies on top of this story to let the American people know what it really going on in our White House. We had better be on our knees to the Lord about this situation because I believe it is worse than any of us are aware. Talk about cover up!
Nothing is ever done about it

We do a lot of talking and investigating for information about Obama, but NOTHING IS EVER DONE ABOUT IT!!!! Why can't these offenses be submitted to the people who are important enough to make a difference? It is frustrating that we know exactly what Obama is, but he is surrounded by very powerful and evil people who are protecting him even in his incredible acts of treason . I know his day of reckoning is definitely coming, but I only hope it is in the very near future!!

From what I have read, there are people in our Government who would like to take away our freedoms and destroy this great country. Starting now let us clean house and get rid of the foreigners. Ship them back where they were born.

How can we feel safe about our country when we have terrorists in the White House or at least they are with the Muslim Brotherhood giving information to the Terrorists. They know more about where our soldiers are, what is going on in America, etc., than America does.
Yes, I definitely think we need a petition started to remove these people including Barack Obama. They are not our friend, but total enemy. The only way we are going to save AMERICA is to remove the ENEMY.
We need to pull our heads together and decide what we are going to do instead of just talking. This is what has been going on for the past 4 yrs. talk, talk, talk, and nothing accomplished but more Obama lies, and deceit.
I agree with all the above comments!!
Stand up , women!

What we need is a Christian Sisterhood. There are enough women with brains and nerve in America to take on the Obama Muslim Brotherhood. Otherwise we women will go the way of those in the middle east.
