The movements of Hassan Al-Banna revealed that his call and his desire to spread the group in various countries of the world were not just rhetoric slogans, but rather a long-term strategy, which Hassan Al-Banna himself began when he met the British consul in Egypt at the beginning of the establishment of the group and obtained an amount of 500 pounds in support of the British side secretly which It spanned years. This incident specifically reveals the falsehood of the slogans that the group is marketing at the time that Palestine is the central issue of the Brotherhood, so how does the group receive assistance from Britain over the years despite the great British role in occupying Palestine!
In general, the Brotherhood’s activity was not limited to the countries and regions of the Middle East and Europe, but also extended to the United States of America since the fifties of the last century, and the number of arrivals from the group’s members to Western countries, especially the United States, increased after closing in on them at the headquarters of the mother group in Egypt during the rule The late President “Jamal Abdel Nasser ”, During those long years, the group worked to penetrate American society and create a wide network of relationships and influence.
Saeed Ramadan, engineer of relations with the outside
“Saeed Ramadan ” is the first founder of the Brotherhood’s relations abroad, due to his influential activity since joining the group. “Saeed Ramadan ” was born in 1926 in the city of Shabin Al-Koom in the province of Manoufia and was known as “Hassan Al-Banna ” in 1940 and then joined the group and married “Wafa Hassan Al-Banna ” to become a son-in of the group founder. In October 1945, “Ramadan ” opened the first Brotherhood office in Palestine. By 1947, the Brotherhood had 25 branches in Palestine with between 12-20 thousand members, and in 1946 it became the Special Secretary of Al-Banna and his Yemeni arm, and he became the editor-in-chief of the newspaper “Al-Shabab 1
After the revolution of July 23, 1952 in Egypt, American interest in emerging national ideas began in the Arab region, and attention began to “Saeed Ramadan ” who was moving between Saudi Arabia and Pakistan and who became the group's foreign minister as a result of the concentration of “Hassan Al-Banna ” inside Egypt, and the United States embraced the activities of the Brotherhood to confront the activities of the Soviet Union and the changes that occurred after the revolution
In 1953 “Saeed Ramadan ” met with the American President “Dwight Eisenhower ” at the Oval Office at the White House, on the sidelines of a forum on Islamic culture that was then 27 years old, and the forum was held at the Nassau base of Princeton University In addition to making a trip to Washington, the Library of Congress participated in “Byrd Dodge ” Former President of the American University in Beirut organized the forum, in the presence of a number of researchers and elders from India, Syria, Yemen, North Africa and the United States, and this forum was organized by the American government and summoned the participants because it believed that they could be cooperating with it in a way It benefits her, so the audience was not arbitrary.
The Department of International Information of the American State, which has been attached to the CIA since 1952, was among the funders of the conference, as it was among its tasks to oversee official American cultural exchanges, and it indicated in a secret official document to it that the conference aims to bring together influential personalities In shaping Islamic public opinion in several areas to enhance American influence in the region, Thus it is clear from here the relationship between the invitation of “Saeed Ramadan ” and Washington's desire to confront the activities of the Soviets and Abdel Nasser through the Islamic trend, foremost of which is the Muslim Brotherhood.
From this date, the United States supported several activities of the Brotherhood in Europe, and its administration was entrusted to “Saeed Ramadan ”, during the fifties and sixties of the last century, headed by the Islamic Center in Geneva and the Munich Mosque, and Saeed Ramadan during those years made a number of visits International in order to obtain the support and support of a number of Arab and Islamic countries for the Brotherhood projects abroad under the guise of religion.

Brotherhood's strategy to penetrate Western societies
The Muslim Brotherhood has sought to penetrate and penetrate Western societies greatly, to reach governments and political leaders in those countries with the aim of creating a direct link to achieve their interests and protect their projects. At the forefront of those countries was the United States of America. To this end, the group pursued a slow and long-term strategy based on The spread of student societies and organizations alongside cultural and religious organizations among Arab and Muslim students in various states, To quickly turn into councils in all states in a cluster manner to achieve a wide pattern of proliferation, the same strategy that the group pursued in Europe and some Arab countries.
Is a document “Global Strategy for Islamic Policy ” Which was known among the European security community as the document “Project ” which was seized by the Swiss security services on November 7, 2001 when they raided Villa “Youssef Nada ” One of the most prominent leaders of the International Organization of the Muslim Brotherhood and the director of the Bank of piety, in the “neighborhood of the Italian border
That document was dated December 1, 1982 and bears the name Kodi, which is the report of S / 5/100 and includes 12 axes and represents a flexible, multi-stage and long-term approach to penetrating Western societies. “Youssef Nada ” indicated in investigations conducted by the Swiss security services That document was prepared by Islamic researchers.
The axes of the document were as follows
The first axis: Knowing the ground and adopting the scientific methodology in planning and implementation.
The second axis: Seriousness at work.
The third axis: Combining global commitment with local flexibility.
The fourth axis: Combining politics with non-isolation on the one hand, and continuous education for generations and institutional work on the other.
The fifth axis: Seek to establish the Islamic state and progressive parallel work in controlling the centers of local forces on the other hand and use institutional work as a means to do so.
The sixth axis: Working sincerely with Islamic groups and bodies in different axes and by agreeing on a common amount of points “We cooperate with what we agreed upon and excuse each other for what we differed in ”.
The seventh axis: Accepting the idea of a kind of interim cooperation between Islamic and other national movements, in general issues, and in some non-contentious points.
The eighth axis: Mastering the art of the possible from a phased point of view without compromising the basic principles, knowing that all the provisions of God are applicable and calling for the practice of the matter of good and forbidding evil with expressing an opinion documented with statements and books without having to call for equal confrontation with its local opponents or its global enemies that may lead to severe blows For advocacy and preachers.
The ninth axis: The continuous building of the force necessary for Islamic advocacy and support for jihadist movements in the Islamic world in varying proportions as possible.
The tenth axis: Relying on various monitoring devices and in different places to feed with information and adopting a conscious and effective media policy to serve the global Islamic policy. Monitoring and making political decisions and effective media is an integrated work in terms of training and performance.
The eleventh axis: The Palestinian issue is being adopted, at the global Islamic level, at the political and jihadist levels, because it is the key to the revival of the Islamic world in the present era.
Twelfth axis: Self-criticism and continuous evaluation of the global Islamic policy in terms of goals, content and procedures for the purpose of development and improvement is an Islamic duty, and a necessary matter, and this is what the provisions of Sharia require glue.
With a quick reading in these axes, we find that the group has created an integrated plan starting from forming a network of relations and contacts with the target community, in order to coordinate with jihadist groups around the world and support them in various forms, in addition to forming a branch dedicated to monitoring various information to take the political decisions of the group in the country in question , With a heavy reliance on a clear media policy that serves the group's goals, which we currently see in a number of countries in the world.
The Brotherhood's strategy to penetrate American society
The Brotherhood focused directly on how the group penetrated American society in the early and mid-1960s through several stages, The first stage It is the stage of assembly and mobilization, and the formation of the movement began in conjunction with the start of Islamic activity in North America or just before it.
Where the formation of volunteers began, but without any regulatory framework, and they were just groups of enthusiasts or activists who were in their country from the Brotherhood or from another group or had no minimum affiliation, so they gathered activity and work with the team, and thus was the stage of planting the seed of the Brotherhood in North America.
Then it started The second stage Of an organizational nature where groups have been worked at the level of North American countries and have a coordination regulatory framework called “Coordination Council ” which has paid attention to coordinating the efforts of international groups, verifying their effectiveness, benefiting from their experiences, and making recommendations, but they are not binding on groups and not in a framework Organizational.
Then these groups slept to produce leaders for them, then a group coordinating and bringing together the leaders of the groups is made in the absence of the members of the group least in the leadership ladder. Accordingly, some countries that do not have a group represented in “Coordination Council ” have been joined to the nearest group in the neighboring country, as was the case with Egypt, Iraq and Jordan.
Then the Brotherhood group added in these groups some of its intellectual frameworks and organizational structures that obligated them to belong to the group, and accordingly the group provided them with all the books, propaganda and advocacy materials they needed, and others that would facilitate them to carry the idea of the Brotherhood and crack it, and the regulatory framework for all these organizations was cultural groups and not the Brotherhood Muslims and that Islam is the primary reason for the involvement of young people in these groups.
At that stage, the Brotherhood recruited a number of young people who joined these groups selectively, and then they are subjected to an intensive program based on identifying and inviting the group’s principles, and ends when submitting pledge allegiance and affirming that joining the Brotherhood is not an honor but a mandate for Muslims with the aim of sacrificing precious and precious in order to uphold the word Religion. And the members of the brothers in each state communicate with each other organizationally in the living environment to form the brotherly families that were organizing a meeting once every month or six weeks, and focus on the arrival of these recruits to the first rows of unions.
The group's strategic goal in America
While “Project ” revealed the general framework of the group's strategy to penetrate Western societies in general, a document came ” Explanatory note: for the group's overall strategic goal in North America ” Which was dated May 22, 1991 to reveal the group's steps to penetrate American society in particular.
That document was seized in 2004 when a US police officer at “Maryland ” noticed a woman photographing parts of the Gulf Bridge “Chesapeake ” and she was arrested and the driver of the car she was traveling in and was called “Ismail Al-Brasi ” A member of the Brotherhood of Palestinian origin, That document prepared by “Muhammad Akram ” Member of the Muslim Brotherhood in America was found, in addition to 5,000 other documents related to the group.
The memo provides a complete map of the group’s goals in the United States in what the group called the “Resettlement ”, and the document “stipulated that the elements of the Brotherhood in America should be aware that they are in “a civilizational jihad process ” with all that the word carries, and a type of Great jihad to destroy Western civilization from within it and sabotage its naughty homes in their hands
At the beginning, the memo clarifies the general goal of the document, the concept of resettlement and its process, and comprehensive settlement institutions, which is the most important part of the document, as it revealed the group's steps to penetrate American society at the (political – media levels – economic – – cultural and intellectual – Administrative and organizational <TAG
It is worth noting that “Muhammad Akram ” The author of the document currently holds the position of Secretary General of the Jerusalem International Organization in Lebanon headed by Youssef Al-Qaradawi, the most prominent religious leader of the Brotherhood, and the organization was classified as a terrorist institution for its terrorist cadres among its sides, as well as as the director of the Jerusalem Institute International is known as an arm of the Brotherhood.
Ahmed Al-Qadi .. The spiritual father of the group in America
He was born on August 1, 1940 in the city of Dasouk in the governorate of Kafr Sheikh and studied there the elementary and preparatory levels and the family moved to Alexandria and obtained a high school there, and after the arrest of his father against the background of the assassination attempt on the late President Jamal Abdel Nasser in 1954, Ahmed Al-Qadi traveled to Austria and attended the Faculty of Medicine and graduated in 1961 He married Iman Mahmoud Abu Saud Najla Muhammad Abu Al Saud The “largest ” project in Florida, which included a high-level medical clinic, an Islamic school, and a large mosque, as the nucleus of an Islamic College of Medicine project in America to attract Arab and Muslim scholars.

Since the arrival of Ahmed Al-Qadi to the United States, he has assumed the task of spreading the group’s thought and the good building approach and establishing rules for organization in various American states, and establishing a system of families and donations that were collected from members, in addition to organizing the meetings during which the group’s strategy was determined in the later stages and methods Attract more to join the organization.
Ahmed Al-Qadi played a very vital role in establishing Brotherhood organizations in the United States and North America and assumed a number of key positions in those organizations, assumed leadership of the group in America since 1984 and was interrogated as the leader of the Brotherhood by the federal authorities on the internal activities of the organization in America, but he claimed The group has made efforts to serve US Muslims.
As a result of the economic problems facing his own project “Akbar ” After the bank debt increased on him, the Islamic Bank in Luxembourg purchased the project to save him, along with filing a number of lawsuits against him because of conducting dangerous operations on his private clinic without providing the necessary tools for emergencies which resulted in the withdrawal of his license Professional practice of medicine in 1992, which resulted in the international organization deciding to exempt him from his responsibilities He died on April 15, 2009 in Panama City, Florida, at the age of 69.
