Clintons’ Brotherhood Employee tied to Al-Shater
In fact, the guy who lied about the duration of that meeting – Gehad el-Haddad – was an employee of the Clintons who has since been arrested by the Egyptian government, for inciting violence.
Could this explain any of Burns’ intense interest in al-Shater?
More on that shortly, but check out what the Egypt Independent had to say about el-Haddad’s dual role with both the Brotherhood and the Clintons shortly after Mohammed Mursi was elected president of Egypt last year:
Three weeks ago, Gehad El Haddad divided his time between volunteering for the Muslim Brotherhood and heading the Cairo office of the Clinton Climate Initiative, a nongovernmental organization set up by the former American president.(Perhaps we’re getting a bit closer to another reason Hillary so supported the Brotherhood in Egypt after Mursi’s victory.)
Mixing practical goals with Islamic values has defined the 30-year-old’s life to date. Once a creative entrepreneur, he is now putting all his efforts into the Brotherhood’s Renaissance Project. {emphasis ours}
A short time later, the Independent reported something else about el-Haddad:
He is one of five members of the project’s steering committee, which is chaired by Khairat al-Shater, a wealthy businessman and influential Brotherhood member. His offices are directly beneath Shater’s in Nasr City. {emphasis ours}El-Haddad’s offices were “directly beneath al-Shater’s”? As to why that might be, the Middle East Monitor may answer that question:
El-Haddad, who has been the main contact between the international media and the Brotherhood, was the chief of staff to Khairat El-Shater; his father, Essam El-Haddad, was an aide to ousted President Mohamed Morsi. He has been charged with inciting the killing of protestors. {emphasis ours}Now that there is an el-Haddad / Mursi connection, it’s worth noting that EXHIBIT H of our “Ironclad” report is an excerpt from a speech Mursi gave at the Clinton Global Initiative (CGI) on September 25, 2012. In this clip, Mursi called for restrictions on freedom of speech when it comes to Islam:
As for the importance of the elder al-Shater to the Obama administration, consider this excerpt from a Fox News report about why the Saad al-Shater (Khairat’s son) was arrested late last month:
It was not immediately clear why police detained el-Shater’s 23-year-old son. Officials only said Wednesday that police had arrested Saad el-Shater and that he had threatened to release documents allegedly showing ties between his father and U.S. President Barack Obama. Officials did not elaborate.It would seem this charge is becoming less of a leap the more events in Egypt unfold.
**UPDATE on September 18, 2013, at 10:12pm EST**
This may be an opening to a very explosive development. Consider Addendum G of our “Ironclad” report. It involves the charges made by prominent Egyptian television host Ahmed Moussa, who claimed in July of this year that the passport of one of Christopher Stevens’ assassins was found in the home of Khairat al-Shater. If this is borne out, the Clintons’ relationship to al-Shater’s Chief of Staff (el-Haddad) would instantly become relevant.
