PCG's Failed Prophecy: President Morsi and the Muslim Brotherhood of Egypt

[Update: April 2, 2015: Update concerning the Armstrongite James Malm has been moved to the end of this post.]

"Sharia Will Win in Egypt". That is the name a Trumpet Daily broadcast hosted by Stephen Flurry that was released on December 12, 2012. This was made while Mohammad Morsi, member of the Muslim Brotherhood, was the elected President of Egypt. PCG at this time constantly portrayed President Morsi and the Muslim Brotherhood as a boogeyman rushing to transform Egypt into an Islamic fundamentalist state and destined to assume power, radicalize Egypt and ally with Iran. He had no idea the Muslim Brotherhood would soon face removal from the halls of power, suppression and mass bloodshed.


Cover of the October-November 2012 Philadelphia Trumpet.
Little did PCG know of the Muslim Brotherhood's frightful fate less then a year later.

Over the years, even in the early 1990s, PCG's writers had made it a habit to fear monger that Egypt was on the verge of transforming into a radical Islamist state made in the image of Iran. PCG's writers focused their vituperative venom on the Muslim Brotherhood, a prominent political organization that had been active in Egypt since its founding in 1928.

PCG's writers claim to have some special knowledge which supposedly reveals the outline of what will certainly occur. But they completely failed to foresee that the Muslim Brotherhood would be overthrown. The Muslim Brotherhood was violently suppressed at the cost of at least 638 lives in August 2013 after just a year of having one of their own as the elected President of Egypt. Later it was legally defined as a terrorist organization by the Egyptian State. Did PCG's writers ever tell their readers that something like that was awaiting the Muslim Brotherhood in the future?

For years PCG's writers used the Muslim Brotherhood as a bogeyman to scare PCG members and their co-workers into thinking the rise of the Muslim Brotherhood was a sign that World War III is just around the corner. Now that the Muslim Brotherhood have been bloodily suppressed and deposed from power PCG's writers no longer have a use for them and so rarely talk about them now.

(Also PCG now portrays Mubarak as a friend to America who courageously and wisely held the forces of Islamic fundamentalism at bay while he ruled. But, as is seen below, back in December 2008 PCG's writers once insinuated that he would ally with Iran.)

Here are a few of the strident and certain declarations by PCG's leaders that the Muslim Brotherhood would radicalize Egypt and ally with Iran. Today the Muslim Brotherhood has been suppressed within Egypt. If PCG can predict the future why could they not foresee that?
It’s time we looked at the facts about Egypt! The Muslim Brotherhood has the political momentum inside Egypt, and it has the backing of Egypt’s ruling military council, Hamas, Iran and the United States! No other political party can compete with this, especially considering parliamentary elections are less than three months away. It’s a hard reality to swallow, especially with Libya, Afghanistan and Iraq demanding so much attention, but we could be months away from the world’s largest Arab nation being dominated by radical Islam. (Brad MacDonald, March of the Brotherhood, July 7, 2011. Source.)
Little did MacDonald know the Muslim Brotherhood was just two years away from being deposed from power and even banned as a terrorist organization within Egypt.
There may be a few delays along the way, but do you really think any individual or group will be able to turn back the Muslim Brotherhood takeover of Egypt?

As the Trumpet has been reporting for YEARS, the changes in Egypt are leading to an Islamic-led regional power that will soon align itself with the forces of radical Islam, headed by Iran. (Stephen Flurry, Washington Embraces Egypt's Brotherhood, July 11, 2012. Source.)
Turns out some individuals and groups were able to get the Muslim Brotherhood out of power. Not only were they kicked out of power they soon got banned and endured massive bloodshed.

An article released in February 2012 even announced that Egypt had already changed into a "radical Islamist country".
Egypt is already the radical Islamist country that the Trumpet forecast it would become, years ago. (Egypt's Islamists Control Both Houses of Parliament, February 28, 2012. Source.)
One particularly fascinating article by Brad MacDonald reveals how excited PCG's leaders were to see the Muslim Brotherhood arising and presents this as a sign that Egypt would radicalize like Iran in 1979.
Here at the Trumpet, the political revolution currently afoot in Egypt arouses a great deal of excitement. For 20 years, we have forecast that the moderate government in Cairo will be replaced by hardcore Islamists who will quickly align Egypt with the anti-Israel, radical Islamic administration in Tehran. We are currently watching this happen. ...

The reason we find what is occurring in Egypt so exhilarating is because it proves the accuracy of the biblical prophecy, which forms the foundation of the Trumpet’s analysis of world news. ...

Ultimately, this is why what is occurring in Egypt is so significant and so thrilling: The radicalization of Egypt is an important step toward the now imminent return of Jesus Christ!

We know that may sound ludicrous, and that some will think we’re crazy. But that’s okay, because so did our forecast 21 years ago that Egypt would undergo an Islamic revolution. (Brad MacDonald, Is a Revolution Under Way in Egypt?, January 27, 2011. Source.)
At the time Brad MacDonald had no idea that the Muslim Brotherhood would face catastrophe and suppression at the cost of at least 638 lives just two years later in July-August 2013.

Below is a list of PCG's articles which discusses this issue, as well as more quotes revealing how PCG dogmatically proclaimed the inevitability of the Muslim Brotherhood assuming power and leading Egypt to radicalize and ally with Iran. All these predictions proved to be nonsense.

U.S. Accepts a Future Islamic State in Egypt?
For nearly a decade, the Trumpet has predicted that Egypt’s government will undergo a radical change and fall under Islamic influence. It appears U.S. officials are owning up to this prospect. But the idea that they can prevent an Islamic takeover is unrealistic. Try as it might, the U.S. will not be able to manage the coming political storm in Egypt.

Why You Should Watch Egypt by Brad MacDonald
Certainly, as discontent with the political system in Egypt increases, we can expect to see the Islamists grow in popularity. A change of leadership will occur—probably sooner rather than later.

The Trumpet’s editor in chief has predicted for almost a decade that Egypt will fall under the influence of Islamists. In his booklet The King of the South, Gerald Flurry stated, “Daniel 11:42 implies that Egypt will be allied with the king of the south, or Iran. This prophecy indicates that there would be a far-reaching change in Egyptian politics!”

This change is probably closer than most people realize.

The Coming Radicalization of Egypt 
This verse in Daniel is in the midst of a passage talking about a power from the north responding in blitzkrieg-like fashion to provocation by a power to its south. The Trumpet understands that this southern power is an Islamic bloc led by Iran. Daniel 11:42 therefore implies that Egypt will radicalize and ally with Iran.

The influence of the United States in the region is going down, and that of Iran is rising. Seeing this, Mubarak may decide it’s time to hitch his wagon to a different star. Or Mubarak could pass from the scene completely. A popular uprising could remove him, or the 80-year-old president could die naturally. Without a strong authoritarian leader, Egypt would fall to the Brotherhood.
Talk about speaking with a forked tongue.)

MacDonald is quoting a Press TV article here. After his overthrow PCG's writers portrayed Mubarak as a friend of America who was betrayed and abandoned by America. And yet notice this article insinuating that Mubarak and Iran are similar to each other.)

Egypt: New Government Immanent? by Brad MacDonald
For nearly 20 years, the Trumpet has forecast that Mubarak’s “moderate” government in Cairo will be replaced by hardcore Islamists who will quickly align Egypt with the anti-Israel, radical Islamic administration in Tehran. Our editor in chief first said this in the November/December 1990 Trumpet, after the assassination of Egypt’s speaker of parliament: “Egypt’s President Mubarak could [also] be assassinated .… This could radically change Egyptian politics .…”
By July 1993, Mr. Flurry’s prophecy for Egypt had grown even clearer. “Islamic extremism is gaining power at a frightening pace in Egypt,” he wrote. Commenting on the prophecy in Daniel 11 that speaks of a radical Islamic “king of the south,” a conglomerate led by Iran, Mr. Flurry continued: “This verse [Daniel 11:42] indicates Egypt will be allied with the king of the south. … I believe this prophecy in Daniel 11:42 indicates you are about to see a radical change in Egyptian politics!”

Well, those Iranians should not have listened to you. Now they are disappointed seeing the Muslim Brotherhood cast out of power, their protests suppressed with massive loss of lives and banned in Egypt as a terrorist organization. Hopefully those Iranians will learn their lesson and not listen to PCG anymore.)

Egypt in Chaos by Stephen Flurry
Keep in mind that Hosni Mubarak’s regime—which brutally suppressed Islamic extremism, by the way—has only been gone for 17 months. And during that time, the Muslim Brotherhood has hijacked the “Arab Spring” uprising, secured 70 percent of Egypt’s parliamentary seats and re-worked Egypt’s constitution, basing it on sharia law. Now it appears to have won the presidency.
It’s possible, of course, that the power struggle between the military and the Brotherhood might continue on for a few more weeks or months—maybe a year or two.
But the Brotherhood will win in the end, just as Mubarak himself said would happen, shortly before he resigned last year.

The Shockingly Rapid Radicalization of Egypt by Joel Hilliker
At the beginning of 2011, when Hosni Mubarak came under intense popular pressure, many in the West saw it as a positive development that would herald a wonderful new age for Egypt. The Trumpet, however, didn’t view it that way at all. That is because we had been writing for nearly 20 years about a biblical prophecy that Egypt would take a dramatic turn toward Islamic radicalism. ...

“Islamic extremism is gaining power at a frightening pace in Egypt. I believe this prophecy in Daniel 11:42 indicates you are about to see a radical change in Egyptian politics!” Gerald Flurry wrote in July 1993.

The Iranian-led radical Islamic movement is “very strong in Egypt and Algeria. … This religion will probably take control of both countries very soon,” he wrote in December 1994.
(Incidentally Gerald Flurry was wrong about Algeria turning Islamist "very soon" in 1994. The insurgents were eventually rendered powerless in Algeria. The military led government were able to come out on top and reestablish their rule over Algeria.)

Egypt: Morsi Sheds His Moderate Cloak by Brad MacDonald  
The presence of Egypt’s military in the Sinai would effectively give Morsi and the Brotherhood control over Israel’s entire southern flank. And not just Egypt. Morsi has already reached out to Iran. This relationship will continue to develop, especially as Morsi and the Brotherhood continue to gain unilateral control over Egypt. As the Iran-Egypt axis continues to develop, and Bible prophecy says it will, then Tehran will also benefit if Egypt takes hold of the Sinai Peninsula.

Egypt Unites With Iran and Fulfills a Bible Prophecy by Gerald Flurry

A New Pharaoh by Brad MacDonald

(Here is what MacDonald wrote in this article:
Give Egyptian President Mohammed Morsi credit. In August, as the world fretted over Syria, debated U.S. presidential candidates and watched the London Olympics, Morsi smoothly orchestrated the most significant development in Egypt since the assassination of Anwar Sadat in 1981.

Watching Morsi work was a sight to behold. In a matter of mere weeks, he: 1) severed Cairo’s three-decade allegiance to the U.S.; 2) wrested control of the government away from Egypt’s Supreme Council of the Armed Forces; 3) appropriated for himself the power to influence the country’s new constitution; 4) established Egypt as Iran’s most powerful regional ally, literally embracing Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad; 5) delivered the Suez Canal and the Red Sea into the hands of Iran and radical Islam; 6) began courting China to replace the U.S. as his bankroller; and 7) trashed Egypt’s historic and pivotal peace treaty with Israel, the 1978 Camp David Accords. He did it all before his presidency was two months old—and he’s still on a roll.
President Morsi is not on a roll anymore. Just less then a year later he would be deposed and detained and more then 600 persons would be killed for protesting his fall.)

Don't Forget, the Sinai Is Still Festering by Richard Palmer 
It is tempting to assume that now that Egypt’s military is back in charge, things will return to how they were under former Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak—not ideal, but without much danger to the outside world. The trouble in the Sinai shows us this isn’t the case. The Arab Spring has allowed a new danger to fester.
(Now PCG's writers admit the military (not al Nour) is actually in charge but insinuates that the Islamists they love to vilify so often might come back to power. This is done in a desperate attempt to obscure the failure of their prophecy that the Muslim Brotherhood would lead Egypt to ally with Iran and Islamize Egypt. PCG's writers did not foresee that others would depose the Muslim Brotherhood.)

Egypt Bans Hamas by Brent Nagtegaal

[Update: April 2, 2015: The update below has been moved to the end of this post:

[Update November 3, 2014: It has come to my attention that James Malm has linked to this post. I would like to share this comment from one who must surely know much more about him then myself. I would be reluctant to use some of the language used in this comment because I have had little to do with him. But this person surely knows much more then I do about what he says. (I have taken the liberty of dividing this comment into paragraphs.)
Like one commentor said, he remembers reading where someone mentioned how much better they felt after quitting reading James Malms articles, that was probably me and it is true. 
Malm constantly as one person says, gossips and puts down all other COGs, no matter what they do or say, only he is right and only he knows the whole truth. This man is causing division against all the brethren against all other churches and against all other church leaders (if indeed they really are Gods churches). 
I can almost guarantee you if you totally shut down turning to and listening to James Malm for a month or so you will notice how much more at peace within you will be, then once you go back and listen to him again you will notice that peace slip away. 
He is the most self righteous arrogant know it all person claiming to have all truth of them all, and doing it all while putting everyone else down in one way or the other and claiming he has come to straighten everyone out and reveal the truth to them and bring them to repentance, only him. God must be slipping if James Malm is the only one with the whole truth because not many have even heard of Malm, to most he doesn't even exist. 
James Malm has no love, compassion, mercy or nice things to say about anyone, he truely does set people against the other churches and all to try and make everyone believe it is only him God has given all truth to, there are many far ahead of him in understanding, and they don't think they are the only ones that can teach others and they are also humble enough to realize others have truth too and they will listen to others, unlike Malm who defiinately has to be in charge and even screen anything anyone has to say because again, only he has the whole truth. (Comment from Banned by HWA.)
At present I would be reluctant to use such polemical language myself but I find this testimony concerning, especially since this person knows much more of what Malm teaches then myself.

Here is the article in question.]

  2. Bravo on your continuing effort to expose the PKG: It's been an excellent effort. I wish more people would take notice -- it's pretty hard for anyone to continue to support Flurry in good conscience.

    I'm just being nasty, but couldn't people see the cover pictured above and conclude that Flurry is saying that these leaders are gay lovers? Maybe this is really a same sex wedding picture.

    The PCG should be more careful with their presentations -- people could get the wrong idea (not that it would make much difference, since Flurry is full of crap anyway).
