Muslim Brotherhood wages ‘jihad by stealth’ while Westminster looks the other way By Joseph Robertson
ED - How does Farage know whether the Moslems he is appointing to senior positions in Reform are benign or otherwise? If he resigns as Prime Minister for health reasons, a likely outcome if he is elected, England will then have a Moslem Prime Minister, to add to their Moslem King. We will be totally snookered if the hundreds of thousands of hotel occupants are put in uniforms and sent out onto the street to enforce a Moslem agenda in our Christian country. England must go for independence from the UK urgently.

IN HIS opening speech at Reform UK’s annual conference, Nigel Farage committed to proscribing the sinister Muslim Brotherhood should he achieve power. So one has to ask: why hasn’t it been done before? New commentary has shed light on their long-term plan to dismantle Western society from within. Yet until now a chilling paralysis in British policy has allowed an openly radical ideology to flourish on UK soil.
A stark warning was recently issued by Dalia Ziada, a leading Egyptian Muslim human rights activist and scholar. She said the Muslim Brotherhood is engaged in a long-term, non-violent strategy of ‘civilisational jihad’ to infiltrate and ultimately reshape Western societies under Islamist rule. On the Defending Israel with David Harris YouTube series last month, she detailed a patient campaign to subvert Western nations through education, politics and demographic change.
Her message is not new. ‘I am keeping my voice heard and fighting Islamists,’ Ziada told the Jerusalem Post in March 2024. ‘I believe Israel is leading this war on behalf of all of us in the free world against radical Islamism.’
This narrative paints a picture of a global conquest disguised as cultural integration, with an unsuspecting West facilitating its own demise. Yet in Britain this organisation operates with near impunity, unbanned and unhindered. This inaction raises critical questions: why does the British establishment refuse to designate the Muslim Brotherhood as a terrorist organisation, and how does its gradualist subversion mirror the tactics of communist groups that have long sought to dismantle liberal democracies?
Founded in Egypt in 1928 by Hassan al-Banna, the Muslim Brotherhood’s ambitions are encapsulated in its motto: ‘Allah is our objective; the Prophet is our leader; the Quran is our law; jihad is our way; dying in the way of Allah is our highest hope.’
While the group often publicly renounces violence in the West, critics argue it pursues identical goals through ‘stealth jihad’. This claim is substantiated by the Brotherhood’s own internal documents. A 1991 memorandum known as ‘The Project’ was discovered in a Swiss raid and later presented as evidence in US terror financing trials. It outlined a 20-year strategic plan for North America, describing a ‘settlement process’ aimed at ‘eliminating and destroying Western civilisation from within’ by using its own institutions –mosques, schools, charities and political front groups – against it.
Across Europe, the Brotherhood has established a sophisticated network, including the Federation of Islamic Organisations in Europe and the Muslim Association of Britain (MAB). The MAB, identified in the 2015 UK government review as dominated by the Muslim Brotherhood and serving as its British affiliate, was co-founded by Kamal Helbawy, a former senior Brotherhood spokesman who openly advocated jihad against Israel and worked to establish Brotherhood networks in the West.
French intelligence reports have exposed the group’s use of ‘entryism’– infiltrating institutions, with significant financial backing from Qatar and Turkey.
In Britain, its financial and social footprint is vast. Reports and intelligence analyses suggest a multi-million-pound network of charities and businesses, many enjoying tax-exempt status, which funds thousands of mosques while contributing little to public services such as hospitals. For instance, Interpal, a UK-registered charity, has been repeatedly investigated by the Charity Commission for alleged links to Hamas — though cleared in the UK, it was designated by the US Treasury in 2003 for funding terrorism.
Another example is the Cordoba Foundation, a think tank led by Anas Altikriti, a prominent Brotherhood-linked figure whose organisation has hosted events promoting Islamist ideologies and lobbied for pro-Palestine causes while denying direct ties.
Former listed buildings and conservation areas, such as Regent’s Park Mosque and the East London Mosque, have been converted into Brotherhood-linked places of worship propagating aligned ideology, hosting linked events and speakers.
While the organisation officially eschews violence in the UK, critics allege that its UK-based institutions have been linked to individuals who later joined terror groups such as ISIS, a charge the Brotherhood denies.
This insidious method exploits Western freedoms of speech, multiculturalism and human rights to advance an agenda that is fundamentally opposed to them. Pro-Palestine activism, weaponised accusations of Islamophobia and ‘lawfare’ are used as shields to silence dissent and manipulate public opinion, turning Western tolerance into a tool of domination.
A stark illustration came in the 2014 Trojan Horse scandal in Birmingham when Peter Clarke’s official report uncovered a co-ordinated effort by Islamist school governors including Tahir Alam — a key figure associated with Brotherhood-influenced groups like the Muslim Council of Britain — to impose an ‘aggressive Islamist ethos’ in state schools.
This involved segregating boys and girls, narrowing curricula to prioritise Islamic studies, bullying non-compliant head teachers and promoting intolerant views via social media groups like the ‘Park View Brotherhood’, run by school leaders such as Monzoor Hussain and involving contributors such as Razwan Faraz.
Despite this alarming activity, the Muslim Brotherhood is not proscribed under the UK’s Terrorism Act 2000. This stands in stark contrast to Britain’s decision to ban dozens of other entities including Hamas, which openly identifies itself as the Brotherhood’s Palestinian branch. The UK’s leniency is an outlier among nations that see the group as a direct threat. Egypt, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and Russia have all designated it a terrorist organisation.
In 2021, Austria became the first European Union nation to outlaw the Brotherhood, explicitly linking its symbols and ideology to religiously motivated crime. The ban carries penalties of up to €4,000 (£3,466) in fines or imprisonment.
The definitive moment for British policy came with the 2015 government review commissioned by Prime Minister David Cameron. The inquiry concluded that association with the Muslim Brotherhood should be considered a ‘possible indicator of extremism’. Cameron stated that aspects of its ideology and activities ‘run counter to British values of democracy, the rule of law, individual liberty, equality and the mutual respect and tolerance of different faiths and beliefs’.
The review confirmed that the group’s foundational texts portray the West as decadent and that it has indirectly supported terrorism by backing Hamas.
Yet no ban followed. Officials cited a familiar list of justifications: a proscription could be challenged in court, would drive the group’s activities underground, could alienate British Muslims, and might damage diplomatic and economic ties with Qatar. Instead of a ban, the UK adopted a policy of monitoring, a decision critics label as dangerous naivety.
By early 2025 this position remained unchanged, even after the UAE sanctioned several UK-based organisations for their alleged ties to the Brotherhood.
In January 2025, the UAE added eight UK-registered entities — including Cambridge Education and Training Centre Ltd, Future Graduates Ltd and Holdco UK Properties Limited — to its terrorism list, accusing them of affiliations with the Brotherhood.
These companies, often owned by exiled Emirati dissidents or their relatives, represent the group’s embedded financial networks in Britain, operating in sectors including education and real estate while evading UK scrutiny. The subversion continues unabated, with Islamists barred from Mecca operating freely in London, lobbying politicians, and exploiting equalities legislation to silence opposition.
