Life without the Brotherhood

[ENGLISHBETA.ALARABIYA.NET] A fatwa was recently issued by the highest religious body in Soddy Arabia
...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula. Its primary economic activity involves exporting oil and soaking Islamic rubes on the annual hajj pilgrimage. The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. When the oil runs out the rest of the world is going to kick sand in the Soddy national face...
calling on the public to be careful against the Moslem Brüderbund and to stay away from joining it, or showing sympathy to it. Although there is no organization explicitly under this name, it exists under the guise of other religious labels, in the same way that breakfast cereals are all "Corn Flakes" regardless of their brand name.

The Brotherhood is an age-old group that was established in 1928. But despite its long history, it did not achieve any notable popular presence until after the Iranian Revolution. Khomeinism was the first religious movement to come to power in the region. It was that spark that woke up the sleeping beast and let it loose into the streets. Prior to this, the Brotherhood existed within the political spectrum of Arab societies and remained so for decades, much like communism, an elitist group with no popular base.
