[Elder Of Ziyon - Israel News] Muslim Brotherhood leader forgets to say "Zionists" instead of "Jews"

Some Arabs keep forgetting the famous virtual memo of 1968: "From now on, don't say you are against Jews, but use the word 'Zionists' instead."

Arab leaders have tried to keep this edict in mind, allowing us to see a shift in rhetoric from Jews owning the banks and media to saying that "Zionists" do.

But old habits die hard.

Mohammed Badie, General Guide of the Muslim Brotherhood, made an address to the court on May 18, 2014, rejecting the accusations brought against him and other members of the movement. In footage from the trial posted on the Internet, Badie says: "We have fought only against the Jews... yet now we are being accused of conspiring with Hamas against the Egyptian people. This is an absolute lie."

Following are excerpts:

[...]

We have fought only against the Jews, and Kamel Al-Sharif may testify about the conduct of the Muslim Brotherhood in the [1948] war in Palestine. We fought against the Jews. The Israeli strategic research institute wrote in a report: "Our greatest enemies in the world are the Muslim Brotherhood." This is an honor for us, yet now we are being accused of conspiring with Hamas against the Egyptian people. This is an absolute lie.
