Some people think Islamists are following Saul Alinsky's rules for radicals.
While Islamists in the West are indeed aligning with Socialists and Communists -- this is only a means to their end goal -- full Islamic takeover. But the Islamic plan follows a different set of rules and strategies. To explain the key factors that differ from the socialists, communists and Alinsky's rules, the following are short excerpts from Chapters One and Two of Cheri's book, An American Woman Living in Egypt: Life during an Islamic takeover. COPYRIGHTED The Brotherhood had built an excessive number of mosques and then forced men to attend on Fridays. Then a new campaign began, one of manipulating men to stop their work during the week to go pray. Praying became more visible during the day. Bus drivers would stop, with a busload of tired, hot passengers, and get off the bus and pray on the street, often purposefully blocking traffic instead of moving to the sidewalk. Shopkeepers closed up shop and left to pray throughout the day—when previously they had never done so. |

Doctors stopped in the middle of an emergency and left to pray. We had this happen to us when my brother-in-law was taken to hospital for emergency treatment.
The call to prayer would blast on loud speakers and someone would plop themselves down blocking a cash machine, a phone booth, or the door to a restaurant or business, when they could have just as easily placed themselves elsewhere—out of the way and not hindering the activity of others. It was purposeful.
With this social enforcement of prayer and mosque attendance came a very visible growth of women wearing the headscarf and veil. This, too, like forcing men to leave work and go to mosque, was social enforcement. It was an Islam-ization strategy.
The 1970s were a period of massive growth in terrorist attacks, so in response, the use of Security Police intensified. Because they used terrorism to achieve their goals, the Muslim Brotherhood experienced periods of being outlawed and banned in Egypt. In response, various groups emerged who were created by Muslim Brotherhood members, but these groups went by other names.
At this time, the Brotherhood developed a strategy. They promoted themselves as “the peaceful moderates of Islam,” but in reality, acts of terror were planned by Brotherhood leadership and the offshoot groups would carry out the attacks. The offshoot group would take credit for attacks, thus leaving the Brotherhood free from blame.
Most terrorist groups created in the 1970s and 1980s sprouted from the teachings and writings of a Muslim Brotherhood member named Sayyid Qutb. Qutb preached that Islam is a complete system that must extend into every aspect of life.
There was also a discreet sector of the Muslim Brotherhood Youth called the Secret Apparatus, which were well-trained militia units.
Because the Muslim Brotherhood was banned, al-Gamaa al-Islamiya membership grew during this period and Muslim Brotherhood leadership used al-Gamaa al-Islamiya as their front group for terrorist attacks. Throughout Anwar Sadat's presidency, 1970-1981, the Muslim Brotherhood and their offshoot groups continuously plotted attacks and unrest.
With help from the Muslim Brotherhood Youth, al-Gamaa al-Islamiya had become a powerful force in the student movement of 1976. The group’s ideology spread in universities and members eventually gained one-third membership in university student unions.
By 1977, al-Gamaa al-Islamiya was almost in complete control at many universities throughout Egypt. Al-Gamaa al-Islamiya and the Muslim Brotherhood took control of universities and targeted Egypt’s youth, and this was the turning point in Egypt.
Al-Gamaa al-Islamiya handed out leaflets and newsletters at universities. They promoted the idea that the right to make laws and the right to govern people only belonged to Allah. They promoted the ideology that there is no need for a “man-made” government. They preached that only sharia was needed and that sharia is a complete system of laws and justice.
They emphasized that the unity of man via Islam was the only way to liberate oneself from all that is corrupt. They said that this included liberation from all things inherited, meaning the full removal of “heritage” and “nationalism.” They wanted to end cultural behaviors that “separate” people from Islam. They abhorred nationalism. Their goal was a generic Muslim culture united under Islamic Laws.
They preached that all Muslims, no matter what country they lived in, should be united by having no separate distinction of nationality, nor any distinct cultural traditions that could separate them from their Islamic identity. Only Islamic culture, the traditions outlined in the hadith and sunna of Muhammad, should exist.
They believed the youth must be taught early that Islam is a complete and perfect system and that Islam “is” the government. Islam must be what regulates Muslims, not an elected government. They preached that democracy was evil and theocracy was salvation.
They taught that Islam regulates war—that jihad must be used to spread and enforce Islam. They taught that Islam regulates the judicial system—by abiding by Islamic laws and administering the prescribed Islamic punishments.
They hated the Western attitude of equality among people, believing instead that only Muslims have rights, and that non-Muslims must be deprived of them. They quoted Quran verses which state that non-Muslims are not equal to Muslims.
These beliefs began to be promoted at all universities throughout Egypt in the late 1970s and early 1980s.
By the 1990s, Quranic Arabic began to replace English as a second language at many universities. Islamic History began to replace Ancient Egyptian Civilization. Young people were led to believe they had no other culture or history other than Islam.
Over time, members of the Muslim Brotherhood and al-Gamaa al-Islamiya gained top positions at every university throughout Egypt. They held the majority of positions as faculty members.
It was during this period that the quality of education began to decline in Egypt. Egypt’s universities had once excelled in all fields and ranked equally to Western universities. By the 1990s, this excellence was destroyed.
During this period, Islamists also began recruiting people living in the poor neighborhoods of cities. And later, after their terrorist behavior landed them in prison, they recruited inside prisons. Prisons became recruiting centers.
In the cities, they targeted the poor and the unemployed, as these groups were the easiest to propagandize and recruit. They gave out free food and medicine. During this period of recruitment, socialism was portrayed as a desirable form of government, but socialism was part of their strategy of takeover.

In America, Muslim Towns exist and in these neighborhoods the same strategies have been put in place: socially forcing men and women to go to mosque and the enforcement of wearing Islamic garb. For more on Muslim Towns, CLICK HERE
In cities where large numbers of Muslims live, Muslims have infiltrated the universities; they work as professors and heads of departments.
When the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood arrived in America in 1962, the first covert organization they created was the Muslim Student Association. Today there are more than 800 Muslim Student Associations on American University campuses. Each of them are tied to other very powerful Muslim Brotherhood organizations that work diligently at co-opting our politicians and gaining entrance into all forms of our government: state, local and federal.
