Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt Using Mosques as Party Branches
(Jerusalem Post) Yaakov Lappin - The Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt is using mosques as the headquarters of its party branches as it seeks to create a Shari'a-based state, former Mossad chief Shabtai Shavit warned on Tuesday during a conference at Tel Aviv University. He said the Muslim Brotherhood remained the only real organized political force in Egypt. "Every mosque is a party branch headquarters. Every cleric at the mosque is the party branch chairman. A contribution to the mosque is a contribution to the party," Shabtai added.
