For the past 30 years, through my articles, books, and lectures, I have continuously tried to raise awareness and sound the alarm about the dangers posed by the Muslim Brotherhood Association to our societies—dangers that are even greater for Arab and Muslim societies, which this violent and reactionary entity has helped destroy or plunge into chaos (Sudan, Afghanistan, Somalia, Algeria, Tunisia, Iraq, Syria, Palestine, Libya, etc.).
