Hamas, the Muslim Brotherhood, and Yusuf al-Qaradawi

Posted by on Feb 27th, 2011 | 0 comments

Relations between the Muslim Brotherhood and Hamas are close, as this article indicates.  And now Hamas has invited one of the charismatic leaders of the Brotherhood to Gaza, Yusuf al-Qaradawi.  Egyptian Qaradawi has frequently called for jihad against Israel and Jews, the destruction of Israel, and has said that he himself looks forward to coming to Israel to personally shoot Jews.

For more on Qaradawi and his hatred of Jews, see the following:
