You must have missed the part where that professor explained that the MB has moved away from Sayyid Qutb’s uncompromising ideology and begun to reexamine, cautiously, the ideas of al-Banna.

And are you sure you can make the conclusion that the MB is responsible for weapons smuggling into Gaza? Would you mind providing a little more substance there? For the record, hundreds of Islamic groups spawned across the Arab world from the MB. You are still looking at the group through 50 year old lenses. I’ve read Qutb and al-Banna. I know the history. I know the MB had a secret “apparatus” responsible for terrorist acts against the Egyptian government and the British. That is not the case anymore.
