Britterna vidtar åtgärder mot Muslimska Brödraskapet. Man är bland annat bekymrade över rörelsens kopplingar till jihadism och extremister i Mellanöstern, samt att flera av dess välgörenhetsorganisationer misstänks för att stödja terroristorganisationer.
Även Qatar börjar slänga ut ledare från Muslimska Brödraskapet.
Brittiska säkerhetstjänsten har kartlagt MB i flera länder, skulle förvåna om inte svenska MB finns med i rapporten.
I Sverige stöttar som bekant myndigheterna istället MB:s olika organisationer ekonomiskt, dess medlemmar finns på riksdagspartiers vallistor. De journalistiska granskningen är närmast obefintlig, vi kan därför se intellektuella giganter som Jenny Strömstedt och Steffo Törnqvist samtala med MB:s Yasir Issa i en TV-soffa, där islamisten Issa framställs som representant för Syriens folk.
Även Qatar börjar slänga ut ledare från Muslimska Brödraskapet.

Britain to curb Muslim Brotherhood operations in London
---
Britain is set to impose curbs on Muslim Brotherhood-linked organisations and block activists moving to London after a report by a senior diplomat raised concerns over the group's links to extremists in the Middle East.
David Cameron asked Sir John Jenkins, the ambassador to Saudi Arabia, to compile a full report on the Muslim Brotherhood after Gulf allies put pressure on the government to curtail the movement's London-based operations.
Critics of the movement accuse it of links to jihadist groups and of pursuing divisive sectarian politics that infringe the freedom of other religions and Islamic interpretations.
A lobbying campaign by Gulf states angry at the Muslim Brotherhood's role in the Arab Spring has seen several of its senior figures forced to leave Qatar in recent days.
---
"We won't ban the Muslim Brotherhood," a Foreign Office diplomat told The Telegraph. "There are other things that can be done but not a ban."
A senior British official involved in the process said parts of the report are too sensitive to publish. "It's a very comprehensive look at the activities of the Muslim Brotherhood in many countries. There have been submissions that have been given to us that are very sensitive. We couldn't go back to those places again if some of this information was put in the public domain."
---
One of the main areas of concern raised with Sir John was Muslim Brotherhood charities that now face renewed scrutiny by the Charity Commission.
It is known to have opened inquiries into alleged suspicions over funding to overseas terrorist organisations by at least three British-based Muslim Brotherhood charities.
A spokesman for the Commission told The Telegraph that Sir John had asked for its findings but would not discuss the nature of the information on the organisations under investigation.
Broader political activities, including media and propaganda branches, also face tighter regulation.
