The answer is, to the consternation of those who say otherwise, yes.  The Muslim Student Association is an arm of the Muslim Brotherhood and as such committed to the same goals and objectives: destroy Israel and the West while installing the next caliphate.

Where I live in Oregon we have the University of Oregon which has a MSA on campus.  The current leader of the MSA at the UofO is also the local imam, Kahlid Alfallatah.  I heard him speak at one of our temples recently and when he said jihad does not mean killing or conquest I almost spit.  Our local MSA and the imam are the best examples of taqiyya I have personally witnessed in a long time.

It is not just in Oregon, the MSA and the MB have their nasty tentacles entwined on many college campuses.  Whenever you see a anti-Israeli protest you can be sure the MSA is behind it.

Muslim Student Group a Gateway to Jihad?

WASHINGTON - The Muslim Students Association, or MSA, is one of the largest Islamic organizations in America, with chapters on hundreds of college campuses. It's alumni include doctors, lawyers and engineers.

But the group has another track record that it doesn't advertise: several of its leaders have been convicted of terrorism, prompting some terror experts to call the MSA a recruiting tool for jihad.

Although many Muslim and liberal groups complained about recent congressional hearings on homegrown Islamic radicalism, American-born Muslims are behind a growing number of terror plots -- a trend that Attorney General Eric Holder has said keeps him "up at night."

Many of these homegrown jihadists once belonged to the MSA, which has thousands of members on college campuses throughout the U.S. and Canada.

Student Network or Terror Factory?

The MSA bills itself as a resource and support group, a place where Muslim students can network and help grow the association. 

Terrorism expert Patrick Poole, however, told CBN News his investigation of the organization shows it's being used for another purpose.

"The Muslim Students Association has been a virtual terror factory," said Poole. "Time after time after time again, we see these terrorists -- and not just fringe members: these are MSA leaders, MSA presidents, MSA national presidents -- who've been implicated, charged and convicted in terrorist plots."

The roll call includes Anwar al-Awlaki, the al Qaeda cleric linked to terror plots from Fort Hood to Times Square and beyond.

Awlaki, now a target for assasination by the U.S. government, was president of the MSA at Colorado State University in the mid-1990s.

Then there is Ramy Zamzam. Before his conviction in Pakistan last year for attempting to join the Taliban and kill American troops, Zamzam was president of the MSA's Washington, D.C., council.

Omar Hammami, a leader of the al-Shabaab terrorist group in Somalia, is another MSA alum. He was once president of the group's chapter at the University of South Alabama.

And the list goes on.

Like a chia pet, you can watch the list grow.
