Secretary of State Hillary Clinton met over the weekend with the Muslim Brotherhood’s new president of Egypt. Then she went off to Israel, reportedly conveying Mohammed Morsi’s assurances that he would preserve the 1979 peace treaty between his country and the Jewish State.
Unfortunately, there’s ample reason to regard such assurances as taqiyya – the practice approved by the Islamic doctrine of shariah of lying for the faith. For instance, Morsi beamed as a fellow Islamist kicked off his campaign by calling for “millions of martyrs to march toward Jerusalem.”
Israel would be foolish to take at face value Morsi’s promises, or Hillary Clinton’s fatuous crediting of them – let alone consider heeding her calls for more concessions to resuscitate the perilous program for dismantling the Jewish State known as the “peace process.”
