Bill Hemmer this morning on Fox, interviewing Steve Emerson:
HEMMER: There is a group called the Muslim American Society. The mission is to uplift the individual, family, and society. According to an expert, there is more than meets the eye. Steven Emerson is here with us now. The Muslim American Society, first, define it.
EMERSON: It was founded in 1993. It is the de facto arm of the Muslim Brotherhood in the United States. The Muslim Brotherhood was founded in the 1920′s in Egypt [in essence] to establish Islamic societies all around the world. — and it seeks to establish Islamic societies [now]. It has supported suicide bombings in Israel. It supports radical Islamic leaders around the world and it is calling for jihad numerous times at rallies in speeches in the united states.
HEMMER: Who is giving them the time and attention?
EMERSON: They are playing part of American politics because that is what you do in the United States when you went to reconstitute yourself from the militant group into a normal [group]. So they are hosting functions for candidates. They are hosting fundraisers. They’re getting [out] party votes. That is their mission. Their mission is to influence the U.S. government from within. According to the document released from the Hamas file, it is part of a grand strategy to insinuate themselves into the American government. …
HEMMER: Your point is that they’re subversive.
EMERSON: They are absolutely subversive. They say they are for peace and justice, but they are for the justice according to how the terrorists to define themselves.
HEMMER: Should they get the attention?
EMERSON: The vast majority of Muslims are not tethered to a radical agenda. These groups that have the monopoly and the hierarchy of organizations are tethered to a radical agenda. They should not be getting the attention. But other Muslim groups [that] do not believe in the radicalism these groups believe it. — should get the attention.
HEMMER: thank you.
