PREVIEW — Edmund Fitton-Brown — Turkey, Qatar, and the Muslim Brotherhood. Fitton-Brown identifies Turkeyand Qatar as principal state sponsors of the Muslim Brotherhood, providing financial resources, media platforms, and territorial sanctuary for exiled Islamist leadership and operatives throughout the region. Fitton-Brown acknowledges that Hamas's armed conflict with Israel generates considerable risk to the Muslim Brotherhood's strategic "deniability" and institutional separation from militant operations and terrorist designations. Fitton-Brown argues paradoxically that Hamas ultimately strengthens the broader Muslim Brotherhood movement by generating globally inspiring headlines through its military resistance against Israeli military operations, thereby amplifying the organization's ideological appeal and recruitment potential despite operational complications for the parent organization.
