Islamists win 60 % of seats in elections in Egypt

Any reason you think Egypt won't be the same country just like Iraq ? Don't bet on a civil war, because it won't happen.

The Muslim Brotherhood will gain power in Egypt, & the Muslim Brotherhood was essentially the one through which Hamas grew out of. I've been to Egypt a few times, my mother's brother used to live there, I wish you guys all the best, but I believe the AQIM & the Al-Shabaab factions of the AQ are spelling trouble for the whole region, including Egypt.

I feel Egypt is going to lose some revenue in tourism,Now that people have already started to label it a theocracy.

No theocracy at all, not even the Salafis want that. Once we have an elected government, country will be more stable, and tourists will come back again.

Any political Islam party or group grew up from the Muslim Brotherhood, not just Hamas. They were the first one, and everybody else was following their steps.... I don't know what is AQIM, or Al-Shabaab or AQ to be honest with you..

Israel can vaporise the Arabian entity within seconds. With second strike capabilities too.

I wouldn't worry if I was them, especially with the worlds best missile defence system (Arrow)

What the **** is your problem kid? Egypt is taking early steps in Democracy, and you wanna nuke them? You people are truly pathetic.

@Topic:
I am surprised. Even more so since the so-called Salafis claim Democracy to be haram.

Salafis claimed that because the governments wanted them to convince the people that democracy is haram so people don't ask for their rights, but now since people actually revolted and the game is over, they want a a piece of the cake too.

Yes, but the real question is: Do the Salafis respect Democratic standards IF they get into power? Isn't it possible that they are using this to gain power?

Why do you think people would actually vote for Salafis? Why would countries like Qatar fund them?

They have no choice but to respect it, they are a minority in Egypt, but a loud one. Problem is are they going to respect human rights ? We will see. One thing for sure is, once people life standards improves, once they get better education, they will lose ground in Egypt, easy as that. People vote for them, because they use religion to to scare people of the other parties, and they tell people that voting for us is like voting for Allah. They only got 20%, so i am not really worried about them... I am not sure why Qatar is supporting them really, unless they don't want good for Egypt, not sure.

Ok, lets make things clear here. This is only the first round, two more rounds lef.
40% goes to the Ikhwan"Muslim Brotherhood", against what most people think in the West, they are really moderate, i call them Liberal Muslims party. They West don't like them because they don't like Israel, but that about 90% of Muslims around the world.

Its not just "dont like". They openly support terror attacks like blowing u buses in Israel. Also Muslim Brother branches are responsible for genocide and rape of hundreds of thousands of people in Sudan, including Muslims.

It's really disgusting how they have managed to coin the term "Islamist" as a pejorative and use it against anyone who doesnt share the same narrow minded western views.

"Islamist" "moderate" etc etc are just phrases used to create new categories of Muslims so they can dive and conquer once again. Remember, like how they did with India!
There is only one Islam and the followers are called Muslims, not Islamist or moderates.

So what u are saying, that all 1.5 billion Muslims are same? That AKP and Al Qaeda are same?

 

[Birbal]

I'm not that concerned with the Muslim Brotherhood. Sure, it's done some bad stuff in countries like Syria, but I expect it to be a better group than the Egyptian liberals... However, I'm really worried about the strong Salafist showing.

This is good news for Egypt and for the Muslim world


Congratulations Egypt

it's a bit ironic of you to write this...

a country where the minority runs the country and slaughters others. isn't it a strange feeling, democracy! people can elect the one they want. and not get tortured to worship someone they dont want for over 50 years.

Syria never claimed to be a perfect democracy, however egypt is becoming a democracy and it will need to protect it's minorities or do you want another iraq ? again Silko on many threads I have posted you offer noting.

Europe is being engulfed in "Christianist" parties who are really neo nazies.
Yet they are crapping their pants because democracy is finally working in Muslim countries and Muslims are actually taking power.
What else can we expect form these morally bankrupt hypocrites?

Well put brother.

"perfect democracy" "offer nothing" ?

the Egyptian Democracy isn't hundred years old like here in Norway, you cant just expect a perfect democratic society/system in Egypt... it will have it's flaws!

the minorities will probably live just like in mubarak times.

they atleast do something, unlike Syria'n 'leader'.

50 years without freedom, can you imagine?! 50 YEARS! a man that can't even rule his own country, where the minority opresses the majority... what country the beautiful Syria turned into!

those men have destroyed your country yet you support them!
