Ali says Brotherhood bent on destroying Western countries

PARIS – Chairman of the Center for Middle East Studies in Paris (CEMO) Abdel Rahim Ali said Monday that the Muslim Brotherhood has no faith in Western countries and waits for a chance to destroy these countries.

The Brotherhood, he said, views Westerners as a “bunch of infidels”.

He added at a conference organized by the CEMO in French capital Paris on the dangers of Brotherhood thinking on Western societies and values that although the Brotherhood wins most elections, it does not believe in democracy.

“The Brotherhood does not believe in integration,” Ali said. “But this grossly violates the Islamic faith.”

Titled “The Danger of Muslim Brotherhood’s Thoughts on Western Values”, the conference is attended by the members of CEMO’s Consulting Committee.

Those attending included international counterterrorism experts Roland Jacquard and Richard Labeviere.

They also included journalists Atmane Tazaghart and Ian Hamel, who are focused on covering terrorist and takfiri groups. A host of Arab and European public figures is also attending the event.
