U.S. to Resume Formal Muslim Brotherhood Contacts

America won’t negotiate with terrorists, except for the ones calling for a global Islamic state, except for the ones looking to end the peace treaty between Egypt and her Jewish neighbors to the north, except for the ones that gave birth to al Qaeda and condemns the killing of Bin Laden, except for the ‘twin brother’ of Hamas whose own charter calls for the destruction of Israel and all Jews, except for the ones who support Iran and its nuclear ambitions, except for the ones that even defend Hitler and promotes nuclear terrorism.  The naiveté of the US administration under President Barack Obama is truly astounding …

By Arshad Mohammed – “(Reuters) – The United States has decided to resume formal contacts with the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt, a senior U.S. official said on Wednesday, in a step that reflects the Islamist group’s growing political weight but that is almost certain to upset Israel and its U.S. backers.

‘The political landscape in Egypt has changed, and is changing,’ said the senior official, who spoke on condition of anonymity. ‘It is in our interests to engage with all of the parties that are competing for parliament or the presidency.’
