Muslim Brotherhood to scrap peace treaty

As expected, the Muslim Brotherhood has announced plans to scrap Egypt’s peace treaty with Israel. They plan to do it with a shrewd gimmick:

The Muslim Brotherhood comes up with a neat trick to break the peace treaty with Israel without formally doing so. Egypt’s next likely ruling party says it simply will hold a plebiscite and let the people do it.

I would like to hear what all those people in the liberal intelligentsia who said the Muslim Brotherhood was moderate and non-violent have to say for themselves now. I wish it were true, but wishing never makes it so.
