Yesterday the Washington Free Beacon<\/a> posted a story about Gehad El-Haddad, a former employee of the William J. Clinton Foundation<\/a>. Mr. El-Haddad was arrested in Cairo<\/a> on Tuesday and charged with inciting violence.<\/p>\n

The article reports:<\/p>\n

Gehad el-Haddad<\/a> served as one of the Muslim Brotherhood<\/a>\u2019s top communications officials until Egyptian<\/a> security forces seized him<\/a> as part of a wider crackdown on officials loyal to ousted former President Mohamed Morsi<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Before emerging as a top Brotherhood official and adviser to Morsi, el-Haddad served<\/a> for five years as a top official at the Clinton Foundation<\/a>, a nonprofit group founded by former President Bill Clinton<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n

…He was raised in a family of prominent Brotherhood supporters and became the public face of the Islamist<\/a> organization soon after leaving his post at the Clinton Foundation.<\/strong><\/p>\n

However, much of his official work with the Brotherhood took place while he was still claiming to be employed by the Clinton Foundation.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cIt was only a matter of time before\u00a0Gehad\u00a0el-Haddad was arrested,\u201d Egypt<\/a> expert Eric Trager told the Washington Free Beacon<\/i>. \u201cMany of the other Muslim Brotherhood spokesmen have been apprehended, and in addition to decapitating the organization, the military-backed government has been specifically targeting the Brotherhood\u2019s media wing, including by shutting down its T.V. stations at the time of Morsi\u2019s\u00a0ouster on\u00a0July 3.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

This is not the only connection between the Clintons and the Muslim Brotherhood. Huma Adedin, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s top adviser, has strong family ties to the Muslim Brotherhood.<\/p>\n

The article further reports:<\/p>\n

El-Haddad represented the Clinton Foundation\u2019s Clinton Climate Initiative in Egypt during his overlapping tenure, according to his LinkedIn profile.<\/strong><\/p>\n

He additionally \u201csetup the foundation\u2019s office in Egypt and managed official registration,\u201d \u201csupervised policy-making workshops & presented foundations views,\u201d\u00a0and \u201cpresented projects to high-level government officials,\u201d among many other duties.<\/strong><\/p>\n

El-Haddad left the Clinton Foundation in August 2012, two months after Morsi assumed the Egyptian presidency.<\/strong><\/p>\n

He was appointed a \u201csenior adviser and media spokesman\u201d to the Muslim Brotherhood in January 2013 and served in that role until his arrest.<\/strong><\/p>\n

It seems as if the military rulers in Egypt are more aware of the threat to democracy represented by the Muslim Brotherhood than our own elected officials<\/a>.<\/p>\n
