Andrew McCarthy's Presentation Before the National Press Club





Former Asst. US Attorney Andrew McCarthy spoke today in front of the National Press Club. The topic was the efforts of the Muslim Brotherhood to infiltrate Western society including our own American government. His talk comes in the wake of the controversy over Michele Bachmann's letter to the State Department asking about their background check procedure. Below is today's article in American Thinker announcing the speech. At the bottom, you can link to the video itself.

"The Ikhwan [Muslim Brotherhood] must understand that their work in America is a kind of grand jihad in eliminating and destroying the Western civilization from within and "sabotaging" its miserable house by their hands and by the hands of the believers so that it is eliminated  and God's religion is made victorious over all other religions."

On October 8, 2008, Brotherhood spokesman Ibrahim El-Houdaiby appeared at UC Irvine and made a presentation to a class on the Brotherhood. On that occasion, I confronted him with copies of a FBI-seized document in which the above passage was contained. He denied its authenticity. You see the video of the exchange in the below link.

The speech and the q and a last one hour and forty minutes. It is well worth the time. If you have been led to think that McCarthy is some sort of right-wing extremist or hater of Muslims, you will come away pleasantly surprised. He comes across as fair, intellectually honest, and thoughtful. At about the 36-minute mark, he discusses the issue of Huma Abedin with specificity. He does not accuse Abedin of any kind of disloyalty or wrongdoing, but as he points out, her family associations and her own previous work history would have to raise flags during a background investigation.
