Reasons for Brotherhood’s pain over the ‘dissolution’

a senior figure from the muslim brotherhood described the government’s decision to dissolve and halt all activities related to the national union of students -- an organization that was originally illegal -- as a more devastating blow than the dissolution of the national assembly.
this admission not only reflects the depth of their pain but also underscores the magnitude of their loss, especially with regard to the “future brotherhood” incubator that had operated for over half a century.
interestingly, the brotherhood did not express regret over the dissolution of the national assembly, but they were deeply affected by the dissolution of the student union. many of their leaders condemned the decision because the union was a training ground for their future cadres. it’s no surprise that they lamented its dissolution, ignoring the fact that the union’s status had always been illegal, even after 60 years of existence.
their refusal to legalize the union was a deliberate choice, knowing that obtaining a license would mean subjecting the union to oversight, requiring transparency over its records, sources of funding, and expenditures. the lack of a license allowed them to handle millions without scrutiny or accountability for decades.
one of the brotherhood’s sympathizers claimed that our campaign against the union was driven by hidden agendas. i challenge these accusers to produce the union’s license, which they claim exists, and to identify any parties supposedly behind me or my agenda. i was the fi rst to expose the union’s violations decades ago.
crying over the dissolution of the union in the name oaf defending union work, freedom of expression, and democracy is pointless when the entity in question was illegitimate from the start. what is built on falsehood is inherently false.
the national union of students never represented genuine union work or served as a platform for free expression. instead, the issue was far deeper, involving the control and exploitation of the union by a religious political movement, using it to infiltrate the minds of young people.
for years, we’ve wondered why the union, especially in the last decade, never sought to obtain a legal license, despite the fact that it enjoyed support from lawmakers, ministers, and influential figures. the answer is obvious: doing so would not have served the brotherhood’s interests.
the national union of kuwaiti students was never the democratic institution that some “brotherhood writers” portray it as. instead, it was a destructive force, particularly within its kuwaiti branch, dedicated to nurturing brotherhood supporters.
anyone who claims the union was an official entity recognized by law is lying. the financial support it received from official bodies and its representation on the university council were results of political pressure, not a reflection of its legality.
this manipulation, driven by the brotherhood, misled other official bodies into believing it was legitimate. but, much like israel’s spy eli cohen, whose high-ranking position and state benefits couldn’t save him when exposed, the union’s status remained illegal despite the benefits and support it received.

i mentioned to a senior official, as an example of the muslim brotherhood’s deep infiltration into state institutions, that i believe the military apparatus is the least affected by their influence compared to other sectors of the state.
the primary reason for this is that the vast majority of military personnel did not attend university, which limited the brotherhood’s ability to reach them and exert influence.
