Brotherhood and Europe … Between asylum and repatriation

The Muslim Brotherhood tries to gain a foothold in Western universities, especially those where there are considerable numbers of Arab and Muslim students.

The Brotherhood has earmarked a huge amount of money for the formation of committees whose goal is to coordinate with British and American universities.

The committees coordinate with these universities in holding seminars and workshops for visiting Muslim Brotherhood delegates.

Through a number of coalitions and NGOs, the Brotherhood uses these seminars and workshops in inciting the students against Arab governments, especially those that stood against the Muslim Brotherhood project in the Arab region.

Most Brotherhood speakers in these seminars and workshops incite against Arab states, especially Egypt, and also speak about the political future of the Muslim Brotherhood.

The Brotherhood works hard to show that its thinking goes hand in hand with Western values and principles, according to some observers who closely follow the seminars held by the Islamist organization in Western universities.

This comes after Arab peoples discovered the phony nature of this thinking, they add.

The same observers note that the Brotherhood also works hard to convince lobby groups in Western countries that it is a peaceful movement that is able to have influence in the Arab region, one that can help Western states achieve their goals in the states of this region.

The Brotherhood also fabricates reports about conditions in Arab states and sends them to the same lobby groups with the aim of influencing the decisions of Western governments on Arab states, the observers said.
