The Muslim Brotherhood, one of the most powerful political entities in the Middle East, has rallied around Iran in the wake of Israel’s devastating strikes on the country and urged disparate Muslim groups to unite and “confront the Zionist entity”.

In a letter addressed to Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei on Wednesday, the acting head of the movement, Salah Abdel Haq, said his group expressed “full support” for the Islamic Republic as Israel’s assault stretched into a second week.

The old fascist playbook.

Use violence against the out group. If the out group protests peaceful, falsely claim it’s violence to increase your own violence. If the out group fights back, use it as an excuse to bring all the violence you have to bear while painting your attack as an act of “defense”.

The real issue is that people are not watching mainstream media as much anymore, whole generations are now immune to the whole manufacturing consent paradigms on both the right and the left that come from the government and corporate media… hearing how cnn fox msmbc and even npr and bbc talk about how Israel’s genocide is Gaza…. I believe it’s waking us up in a way that has never happened simply because we have the internet and alternate sources of information….
