Subversion: As Cairo bans the radical Muslim Brotherhood and jails thousands of its leaders, the terror-supporting group is making deeper inroads into our own government. The extent of the Brotherhoods influence on operations — within the State Department and even the FBI — is stunning and demands further investigation. It turns out that one of those arrested Brotherhood leaders previously worked for the Bill, Hillary & Chelsea Clinton Foundation, according to the Washington Free Beacon. Gehad (Jihad) el-Haddad, a top Brotherhood official and aide to ousted Egyptian President Mohammed Morsi, was actually employed by the Clintons from August 2007 to August 2012, when he left to work full-time for Morsis regime. A month after he left, the Clintons invited his new boss, Morsi, to deliver his first major speech at the Clinton Global Initiative. Informally, el-Haddad began advising Morsi as early as February 2011, when he helped draft his political platform based on the Brotherhoods Islamofascist agenda. Around the same time, then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton sent diplomats to Cairo to help Morsi and the Brotherhood take power. How did a major Brotherhood figure like el-Haddad end up on the former first familys payroll? He had a good reference: Hillarys deputy chief of staff and longtime confidant, Huma Abedin. According to ex-U.S. prosecutor Andrew McCarthy, Abedins parents are major figures in the Muslim Brotherhood. Her mother was in the Muslim Sisterhood with Morsis wife. Abedin herself served on the executive board of a chapter of the Muslim Students Association, the first building block of the Brotherhoods U.S. infrastructure, built with millions in Saudi cash. Abedin also works for the Clinton Foundation. In fact, she officially began moonlighting there — while still drawing income at State — in June 2012, when Morsi assumed the Egyptian presidency and Clinton made her a special government employee. Abedin, whos stonewalling Sen. Chuck Grassleys inquiry into the conflicts, is now working for Clinton in her transition office as she prepares a White House run. The Brotherhoods influence runs even deeper. After the FBI banned the Council on American-Islamic Relations from its counterterror outreach programs in response to evidence the group fronts for the Muslim Brotherhood and its Palestinian terrorist branch Hamas, the FBIs Los Angeles field office liaisoned with CAIR, in violation of policy, according to a just-released report by the Justice Departments inspector general. Directives sent from FBI headquarters required all offices to cease contact with CAIR as an organization, yet the L.A. office refused. Rep. Frank Wolf, whose House panel oversees the FBI, wants officials there punished. This is insubordinate behavior, Wolf wrote the FBI director. The findings in this report suggest the FBI may have a systemic problem.
