Ok.

First, a real quick side note to the American media:

THE MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD IS A POLITICAL ORGANIZATION. Not a terrorist group. Quit alluding to its ~imminent takeover in Egypt~. Seriously. Stfu.

Second, to Gaffney:

...wtf are you smoking? Also, leave al Jazeera alone, you paranoid dipshit.

Once the dust settles, my take is that the Muslim Brotherhood shall be important coalition players in forthcoming Egyptian governments for the foreseeable future.
They'll be Sunni Muslim politicos who know what side their bread is buttered on, once they get the hang of it.

Sooooo... basically, the Muslim Brotherhood is like the Elders of Zion 2.0?

The trick is generally to convince Quicksilver that he's being used by his father, convince him to speed-grab his father's helmet off, and let Xavier stun him into submission. Works every time.

Where I come from, that shit's called diplomacy.

I can no longer sit back and allow Islamic infiltration... Islamic indoctrination... Islamic subversion and the international Islamic conspiracy to sap and impurify all of our precious bodily fluids!
