How America Conspires and How Its Collaborators Behave

The statements of Ahmad al-Muslimani, the media adviser of the Egyptian president, are important. Even though for us, they include nothing new about America’s conspiracy against Egypt and the Arab states, they are important because they present a specific, practical example of this conspiracy.

In a televised discussion two days ago, al-Muslimani said that after the Jan. 30 revolution, which overthrew the Muslim Brotherhood government in Egypt, there were Muslim Brotherhood leaders inside the Guidance Office who were communicating with the Egyptian presidency. These leaders were ready to accept the new post-revolution situation and actually asked to assume specific portfolios and ministries. But, as he said, they retracted their positions after they communicated with America, which supported continuing the strike in front of the Rabia al-Adawiyah Mosque.

Of course, what al-Muslimani said is important because it is not an analysis or a conclusion drawn by reasoning. Rather, it is something he knows by virtue of his position and something he would not have said if he had not been sure of it.

In our view, al-Muslimani’s revelation is important in two dimensions. The first pertains to America and what it wants in Egypt or, put more specifically, its conspiracy against the country. The second pertains to the powers that are subordinate to and obey America’s commands and how these powers behave.

Regarding America and its conspiracy against Egypt, the question is what exactly Muslimani’s revelation means. What exactly does America want to achieve in Egypt through its actions in this regard?

It is clear that at least some Muslim Brotherhood leaders wanted to accept the new situation after the Jan. 30 revolution and to merge back into political life. They did not want to escalate the crisis and wanted to steer the country away from acts of violence and chaos.

But America had a different opinion and position. It wanted the Muslim Brotherhood to continue the strike and violent protests that it is conducting, including the acts of violence, terrorism and chaos around the country that are connected to them.

America wanted Egypt to drown in violence and chaos, and wanted to obstruct any form of stability. It wanted the new leadership in Egypt to yield to America’s plans for it under the pressure of terrorism.

For this specific reason, America did what it did in the particular case that al-Muslimani disclosed.

Of course, America doesn’t do this and act in this manner in just Egypt. It does the same thing in Bahrain and almost all other Arab states.

We have consistently said this in our analyses of the plans America has for our Arab countries and of the reasons behind its support of insurgent sectarian powers inside them.

The other important dimension of al-Muslimani’s statements pertains, as we said, to the powers subordinate to America and how America controls their positions and behavior.

The important thing is what the Muslim Brotherhood leaders, who were ready to accept the new reality after the January revolution and to not escalate the crisis, did: They retracted their positions just because America asked them to. They yielded to America’s will immediately and implemented its requests.

We must note that these leaders executed America’s orders even though what America demanded didn’t represent their convictions and even though they must know that America’s desires don’t serve Egypt’s national interest.

Of course, despite all this, these leaders would not have submitted to America in this manner had the shady connections between the Muslim Brotherhood and America not existed in the first place, connections that ultimately prevent the former from disobeying the latter.

The actions of these leaders are a practical example of how the forces that collaborate with America behave. These powers have no independent decision making and can do nothing other than obey America’s orders. Their free will has been stolen. Thus, when they have to choose between national interests and America’s interests, they chose the latter and sacrifice the former.

This, then, is how America conspires against Egypt and our Arab states.

This is how America’s collaborators behave.

In any case, we must not forget the meaning of what happened in Egypt: America’s conspiracy and the plans it shared with its collaborators failed. They were smashed by the stone-like will of Egypt’s leadership and people.
