If he had the slightest, smallest, most insignificant link with the brotherhood, he wouldn't walk free for three seconds in Saudi Arabia.
Source: I'm from Saudi Arabia, the government doesn't tolerate anyone who is even remotely affiliated with the brotherhood.
I apologize for my ignorance, is this opposition between the Saudi Arabia government and the brotherhood still a big thing? I hadn’t heard about it for a long time and don’t know much about it.
Forget the sects, it's basic politics. The Muslim Brotherhood is an ideology that opposes monarchies.
Monarchies hate them.
tbh i'm not even sure why the muslim brotherhood is considered "bad". I've heard good things about them - they elected that morsi fellow right? they were pro-democracy, but socially conservative. Morsi went to iran and criticized them for not being democratic.. in TEHRAN. man had balls.
There's a pretty good thread about them here with a lot of different viewpoints if they're 'bad' or not: https://www.reddit.com/r/AskMiddleEast/comments/y6589v/thoughts_on_the_muslim_brotherhood/
IMO they're mostly just incompetent, and I'm opposed to theocracies in general.
The Muslim Brotherhood is bad because of political violence associated with it, Islamist (think Saudi-level) but different school of thought). Just because you encourage democracy doesn’t make you a good group.
? it literally does.
political violence is associated with palestinians and muslims generally in western media and zionist narratives anyways.
for instances, y'all think jihad is a terrorist slogan, as is allah hu ackbar. *rolleyes*
So gimme a break with that "associated with political violence". That's so ambiguous as fuck.
By your logic, the United States is a compassionate nation because they encourage democracy. Many would argue the opposite.
Lamo that isn’t true. Muslim Brotherhood is not a a political terrorist group.
