“God is our Goal.   The Prophet is our leader.  The Quran is our constitution.  Jihad is our way.  Death in the service of God is the loftiest of our wishes.  God is great, God is great.”

This is the motto of the Muslim Brotherhood, which was founded in Egypt as a vehicle to establish a worldwide Islamic empire governed by shariah law.

The Brotherhood has transformed Islam into a political agenda, and this mix of religion and politics has become known as Islamism.  Since the Brotherhood’s founding in 1928, the Brotherhood has established a presence in more than 70 countries, and countless organizations worldwide have adopted its strategy and goals.

Today, organizations created by or inspired by the Muslim Brotherhood enjoy considerable influence within the United States.  The government, media, and law enforcement often turn to these organizations when they want the pulse of the American Muslim community.  But critics- Muslim and non-Muslim alike- say that engaging these organizations poses a danger.

According to these critics, although members of these organizations might appear to be moderate, they support an interpretation of Islam that is at odds with democracy and human rights as is commonly understood in the Western world.  Engaging these organizations bestows an undeserved legitimacy upon them and makes it easier for them to advance their secretive agenda.

The Grand Deception, a 70-minute film by the Investigative Project on Terrorism (IPT), traces the roots of Islamism inside the United States.  This film examines the extent of Islamist influence within the United States and highlights the danger that Islamist influence poses for all Americans.

This documentary is based extensively on primary source materials, including original Brotherhood documents and audio and video from IPT’s extensive archives.
