"'The Brotherhood was formed in Egypt in 1928, four years after the abolition of the Ottoman Caliphate. Since then, the Brotherhood has advocated for the re-establishment of a caliphate, a state ruled by sharia (Islamic law)...Its members carried out numerous bombing operations and assassinations, including the 1948 murder of then-Prime Minister of Egypt Mahmoud El Nokrashy Pasha, who had recently banned the Brotherhood,' notes the think tank Counter Extremism Project (CEP) about Muslim Brotherhood."
