Muslim Brotherhood General Guide: The Time Has Come For Jihad To The Maximum Degree

In his weekly sermon, Muslim Brotherhood General Guide Muhammad Mahdi 'Akef called to launch jihad for the Palestinians in Gaza in any way possible: military warfare, popular resistance groups, donations of blood and money, and comprehensive boycott.

He said that this fateful moment of the battle against Zionism is the time for jihad to its maximum degree, and that this is incumbent upon everyone.

In an interview with the London daily Al-Quds Al-Arabi, 'Akef said that Israel's operation in Gaza was planned and coordinated with Egypt, Palestine, the U.S., and Israel, and that all of them had agreed with the Zionist-U.S. agenda to assassinate the heads of the Palestinian resistance.
