Muslim Brotherhood takes Egypt’s elections by storm

Muslim Brotherhood takes Egypt’s elections by storm. Continued electoral success would allow Islamists to give Cairo’s government and constitution an Islamist character and lead Egypt to tilt away from the West towards Iran. “Analysts say Islamists may also seek to annul the 1979 Egypt-Israel Peace Treaty…” Barack the Brain might not only lose more countries than Jimmy Peanuts, but also kill one of the few accomplishments of Carter’s presidency. Obama’s doing for America what the Chicxulub asteroid did for the dinosaurs.

  • Even better, the libschizos and leftards won´t be able to credibly pretend "the islamists hijacked the people´s democratic and secular revolution", like they did with Iran.

  • At least the Muslim Brotherhood will let tourists drink.. Hasn't anyone heard of the Salafists? They won pretty big too

  • I'm so terribly surprised. I never imagined that Islam would want to take over the government of a country. Imagine that!

    And the environmentalists will STILL refuse to allow us to drill for our own oil, or build pipelines or refineries.

  • Goodbye, Eygpt. Farewell as you enter a generation of darkness and misery.

    Arab Spring? Does not seem to be the case.

  • Go Figure:

    "This is the turf that the Muslim Brothers know how to till and sow".

    "Italian MP Fiamma Nirenstein, writing this week in ll Giornale on the Egyptian election results, found herself apalled at the spectacle of Egypt's women lining up and voting to send themselves back to the dark days of Sharia law under Islamic fundamentalism.

    "So, Egyptian women" continues the intrepid parliamentarian, "you know what this means. Of course, you laugh when the Muslim Brotherhood promises to manage their loyalty to Islam with a soft hand.

    "Some months ago, a Pew poll showed that 60 per cent of Egyptians choose to strictly comply with the Sharia law, 84 per cent want the death penalty for those who leave Islam, 77 per cent say that thieves should have their hand cut off and, please listen carefully, 82 per cent want adulterous women to be stoned to death."

  • The other problem with Egypt going hardcore Muslim is that they have been sending their military people here to the US for training at our military bases for decades!
    When I was in the Air Force I was in school for electronics. The particular school I went to had the highest failure rate of any school in the military and there were Egyptian officers in the same school with us! We were teaching them all the high tech stuff we knew! Who knows what they have done with this info over the years, plus, didn't we sell them lots of our aircraft, etc?

  • Allah kebabar!

    Hey, libschizoids and leftopaths, enjoy your Egyptian DEMOCRACY, since the pogroms against Coptic christians wasn´t enough to give you a clue.

  • All courtsey of barry and friends. Anyone who did not see this coming is just a fool. Iran = Jimmy Carter, rest of the Middle East = barry obama.
