Al-Jazeera Egypt Staff Resign Over Orders To “Favor” The Muslim Brotherhood

http://www.globalmbwatch.com/2013/07...m-brotherhood/

It is increasingly clear that we are in fact at war with Islam. I have been trying to understand exactly how the "enemy" is organized and how it operates. A couple of things are coming clearer IMO: (1) the Muslim Brotherhood is the political arm, (2) Al Qaeda (and it's various factions), Hammas, and Hezbollah are the military arms, and (3) Al-Jazeera is the media/propaganda arm.

Fighting this "state-less" enemy presents some unique challenges and we are at a distinct disadvantage at the moment with our failure to recognize our enemy and understand how it is organized and operates, i.e. know your enemy. IMO that is job one.

I would like to take this thread in that direction to better understand our enemy. Then discuss strategies and tactics to defeat the enemy - political, economic, and military. This is asymmetric war and will require unconventional thinking, unconventional strategies, and unconventional tactics.
