BREAKING NEWS: “The Truth About Mohammed Morsi”
An organization known as Secure America Now has released an information packet titled “The truth about Mohammed Morsi” which presents a fully sourced compendium of statements as well as other information about the Egyptian president. The report begins with an introduction characterizing Dr. Morsi’s statements and other facts covered in further detail later on in the publication:
- “Resistance is the correct and only way to free the land from the filth of the Jews”
- His words are reflective of his contempt for Jews, The United States, and the State of Israel.
- Dr. Morsi joined the Muslim Brotherhood while living in the United States
- Two of his sons were arrested at anti-Israel, anti-United States demonstrations in Egypt
- Dr. Morsi has repeatedly denounced Egypt’s treaty with Israel.

In one of Dr. Morsi’s most egregious statements, he said in 2004 that the “Quran has established that the Jews are the ones in the highest degree of enmity towards Muslims” and that “there is no peace with the descendants of the apes and pigs”.

The New York Times has published a long interview with Egyptian President Mohamed Morsi in which he said “it was up to Washington to repair relations with the Arab world and to revitalize the alliance with Egypt.” The interview begins:
Published: September 22, 2012 A former leader of the Muslim Brotherhood and Egypt’s first democratically elected president, Mr. Morsi sought in a 90-minute interview with The New York Times to introduce himself to the American public and to revise the terms of relations between his country and the United States after the ouster of Hosni Mubarak, an autocratic but reliable ally. He said it was up to Washington to repair relations with the Arab world and to revitalize the alliance with Egypt, long a cornerstone of regional stability. If Washington is asking Egypt to honor its treaty with Israel, he said, Washington should also live up to its own Camp David commitment to Palestinian self-rule. He said the United States must respect the Arab world’s history and culture, even when that conflicts with Western values. And he dismissed criticism from the White House that he did not move fast enough to condemn protesters who recently climbed over the United States Embassy wall and burned the American flag in anger over a video that mocked the Prophet Muhammad. ‘We took our time’ in responding to avoid an explosive backlash, he said, but then dealt ‘decisively’ with the small, violent element among the demonstrators. ‘We can never condone this kind of violence, but we need to deal with the situation wisely,’ he said, noting that the embassy employees were never in danger. Mr. Morsi, who will travel to New York on Sunday for a meeting of the United Nations General Assembly, arrives at a delicate moment. He faces political pressure at home to prove his independence, but demands from the West for reassurance that Egypt under Islamist rule will remain a stable partner. Mr. Morsi, 61, whose office was still adorned with nautical paintings that Mr. Mubarak left behind, said the United States should not expect Egypt to live by its rules. ‘If you want to judge the performance of the Egyptian people by the standards of German or Chinese or American culture, then there is no room for judgment,’ he said. ‘When the Egyptians decide something, probably it is not appropriate for the U.S. When the Americans decide something, this, of course, is not appropriate for Egypt.’ He suggested that Egypt would not be hostile to the West, but would not be as compliant as Mr. Mubarak either.”Read the rest here.
