Cindy Sheehan is in Egypt Protesting on Behalf of Terrorists

Just when you thought you heard it all when it came to Cindy Sheehan comes this story. Cindy Sheehan is in Egypt protesting in favor of suspected terrorists.

Members of the Muslim Brotherhood will be going on trial in Eqypt for terrorism and Sheehan doesn’t think it is fair.

Here is the Brotherhood’s motto, according to Wikipedia:

Allah is our objective. The Prophet is our leader. Qur’an is our law. Jihad is our way. Dying in the way of Allah is our highest hope

Here is how the Brotherhood feels about women, again from Wikipedia:

On the issue of women and gender the Muslim Brotherhood interprets Islam quite strictly. Its founder called for “a campaign against ostentation in dress and loose behavior,” “segregation of male and female students,” a separate curriculum for girls, and “the prohibition of dancing and other such pastimes

Here are some of the activities that the Brotherhood are alleged to be involved with:

The Brotherhood is widely believed to have had a `secret apparatus` responsible for terrorist attacks in Egypt including the assassination of Egypt’s prime minister in 1948.

The Brotherhood currently advocates suicide bombing attacks on civilians to fight Zionism, and its Palestinian wing Hamas targets both civilians and the military in Israel.

Newsweek journalists Mark Hosenball and Michael Isikoff report connections between al-Qaeda and Brotherhood figures Mamoun Darkazanli and Youssef Nada.

A similar article in the Financial Times reported financial links between 74-year-old Swiss Muslim convert, businessman and neo-Nazi Ahmed Huber, and MB members, notably Youssef Nada, Ali Himmat and who founded the Al Taqwa Bank. According to the U.S. government, Al Taqwa “has long acted as financial advisers to al-Qaeda.” Huber himself is noted in Europe for his links with alleged neo-Nazi and other far right elements. He is reported to have “confirmed” having “had contact with associates of Osama bin Laden at an Islamic conference in Beirut,” whom he called `very discreet, well-educated, very intelligent people.`

Abdul Rahman al-Amoudi, an “expert in the art of deception” was an influential lobbyist and founder and head of the Brotherhood-linked American Muslim Council before being convicted and sentenced to 23 years in prison for conspiracy to murder Saudi Prince Abdullah at the behest of Libyan leader Muammar al-Gaddafi.

Cindy Sheehan has this to say about the suspected terrorist who are to go on trial:

“I am here to protest the trial of civilians in front of a military tribunal as this is a violation to international law,”

I am not sure why I let the actions of this one obviously deranged woman bother me, but I do. Just think about this scenario for a second. Cindy Sheehan is no longer just protesting the war. While I may disagree with her war protest, that was her right. Cindy Sheehan is now protesting on behalf of terrorists, this is different and much worse that protesting a war.

Cindy Sheehan has gone from war protester to terrorist sympathiser, she is embarrassing her son’s name, and demeaning what he fought for. She has now gone well beyond what I find reasonable, responsible, and acceptable. She has now entered Jane Fonda territory.
