And I've met his grand family, grand family, grandchildren in New York, sorry, in Jerusalem, and we've had this conversation.

So what I'm saying isn't just concocted, it's historically proven, and it's known in the family that the mistake was made to support the Holocaust.

So that connection to the Palestinian radical Mufti via the brother of Hassan al-Banna then leads to them inviting him to come and settle in Egypt.

But worse, a leading Nazi, Von Ellis, is also then invited, whose name became Omar Amin in Arabic, to convert and come and settle in Egypt under the Muslim Brotherhood's protection.

Those are two direct connections of the Muslim Brotherhood to living physical Nazi supporters and the entire movement supporting the Nazis.

But the real connection is ideological and geographical.

In other words, what was going on in neighboring Palestine at the time,

They openly support the expulsion of Jewish people and Jewish people settling in Palestine.

And then the Muslim Brotherhood declared jihad on the state of Israel and they go and fight in that jihad against the state of Israel because of their earlier Nazi leanings that we cannot have Jews settling in Israel.

We must remove them.

We must complete the job that Adolf Hitler had started.

And the second point, which is the more ideological point, is just as the Nazis

believed in a supremacy, they believe in a supremacy of just their type of Muslim, Islamists.

Just as the Nazis said, we want to create a thousand year Reich for Germans and for Europe, led out of Germany, they believe in a thousand year caliphate, led out of Egypt, led by Egyptians, not the Meccans, the original Muslims, but the Egyptians.

And just as the Nazis believed in using violence and being expansionist, they believe in the same thing.

And we've already mentioned the Jew hatred, you know, on which they have the supremacist standing.

But here is the real issue, I think, that we've got to bear in mind so we don't kind of make mistakes as we're thinking about this, that just as the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood was...

sympathizing with the Nazis, aligning with the Nazis, becoming under Nazi influences and giving protection to Nazis inside Egypt.

You had in Mecca, in the Arabian Peninsula, and that's why I'm obsessed with the Arabian Peninsula because it is the home of Islam.

It's where it was born.
