- Elder of Ziyon
- antisemitism, Egypt, Muslim Brotherhood
We've seen before how the secular Egyptian party al-Wafd has pushed the most bizarre anti-Zionist, anti-semitic and anti-American conspiracy theories around.
Today they continue, with a long article that (yet again) describes the forgery known as the Protocols of the Elders of Zion - and how the Muslim Brotherhood is part of this vast Jewish conspiracy.
For example, the first protocol supposedly says that the Jews must cause strife and infighting in the nations they want to destroy - and that's what the Muslim Brotherhood did!
The ninth protocol says to fool people with false slogans - and that is what the Muslim Brotherhood did!
The tenth protocol forces world leaders to adhere to the wishes of the Jews in order to stay in power - and this is exactly what the Muslim Brotherhood did!
The article goes on and on, piling idiocy upon stupidity upon crazed conspiracy.
Remember, these guys represent the secularists - the best of the best of Egypt, the ones that the West is hoping will take over (although they pretend that the West loves Morsi and always did.)
Once again, I cannot find the tiniest pushback to these crazed anti-semitic conspiracy theories in the Egyptian media. Either the sane voices are too afraid to speak up, or they don't exist.
Either way, it is not an auspicious sign for the future of Egypt.
