You know that I detest the Muslim Brotherhood in all its branches and incarnations but I knew the story about the "secret meeting" was a Mossad idea to help Shafiq prior to the election: "A senior member of Egypt's Muslim Brotherhood has denied reports that preparations are being made in Washington for a meeting between the organisation and Israeli members of parliament. Ibrahim Munir said that there is a "red line" on such matters and a meeting is "out of the question"."
