News-worthy.info — In an exclusive interview with Piers Morgan last night, Queen Rania of Jordan said that while most Arabs are moderate peaceful centrist, the Muslim Brotherhood are one of the many groups throughout the region that have points of view that need to come to the table.
Her remarks were in response to Morgan’s question about Newt Gingrich’s statement earlier before saying that “the Muslim Brotherhood is a mortal enemy” of Western civilization.
In his critics to Obama’s administration approach to political crisis in Egypt, Gingrich expressed his concerns that the United States might reach out to the Muslim Brotherhood.
“I think this is absolute total misreading of history. The Muslim Brotherhood is a mortal enemy of our civilization, they say so openly,” Gingrich said.
Answering Morgan’s question whether she agrees with what Gingrich said about the Muslim Brotherhood, Queen Rania said, “I think that is a very polarizing approach to what is taking place in the Middle East that has dominated for a very long time. It assumes that any religious group is somehow dangerous and extreme while in fact most Arabs – religion is important to most Arabs – actually are moderate peaceful centrists,” and that “The Muslim Brotherhood are one of the many groups throughout the region that have points of view that need to come to the table”.
