Terrorists win one, leftists get assist

They had massive support last year but have lost a lot since, they will lose far more if and when they start to impose Islamic policies on the people.

Islamic policies may be what the people want. Why would they have any faith in Christian policies or an American form of "democracy?"
 
He's not alone, that's for sure. Like I said. I'm not thrilled that an Islamic fundamentalist was elected head of State but I also figued that would come with the territory. Maybe this is what is needed to boot strap the ME out of the middle ages.

I was not thrilled when Bush II was elected president, but I was happy we live in a Democracy!
 
I was unhappy when Conservatives won the US election.
I am unhappy that a Conservative has won the Egyptian election.

I am happy both elections were held and that the results were followed.
 
Well, using your logic, anyone who supports free elections naturally backs whoever wins them. So, you must have "backed" Obama.

See how that works?
Sorry, friend. I've been given zero reason to believe that those elections were based on freedom.

Tell me Once, can you figure out what this year's US presidential elections and Spain have to do with each other?

It wasn't the Islamists or the Muslim Brotherhood that rose up and overthrew the Mubarak government. It was the young that craved for a Western style democracy. Would you be happy if women are forced to wear burqas and homosexuals executed?

Then they should have voted for somebody else. If they were a majority of the people they would have won. If not, then they shouldn't have. It's the basic principle of the majority gets what it wants, rather than the minority, would you have a smaller percentage of the country forcing it's will on the rest?

They do not have any history of democracy, Egypt was a dictatorship and I'm sure that the MB would return to that if they could. Anyway, to answer your question a benign dictatorship is probably preferable to a fundamentalist government determined to suppress women's rights and execute homosexuals. I think you need to look at what happened in Algeria in the early '90s to see what could happen.

A benign dictatorship is just a repressive dictatorship looking for a place to happen. You could compare it to slavery, sure it's nice that the master doesn't hit his servant or chop him up into small pieces but that doesn't mean the servant can ever stop him if one day the master changes his mind.

A bad democracy can become better with time and people, a dictatorship is a toss of the dice to see whether the newest leader is going to be live able or totally repressive and crazy.

Oh and have the mass executions of homosexuals and women begun yet? I don't mean single acts I mean government sponsored and mass occurrences. Because until they do it's just fear mongering.

I suggest you read this first.

Muslim Brotherhood presidential candidate Mohamed Morsi of the Muslim Brotherhood told supporters last month,
“Jihad is our path and death in the name of Allah is our goal.”
Lovely.
Voice of Russia reported;

Egypt’s Constitution should be based on the Koran and Sharia law, presidential candidate from the Muslim Brotherhood Islamist movement Mohamed Morsi said.


“The Koran is our constitution, the Prophet is our leader, jihad is our path and death in the name of Allah is our goal,” Morsi said in his election speech before Cairo University students on Saturday night.


Today Egypt is close as never before to the triumph of Islam at all the state levels, he said.


“Today we can establish Sharia law because our nation will acquire well-being only with Islam and Sharia. The Muslim Brothers and the Freedom and Justice Party will be the conductors of these goals,” he said.


The Muslim Brotherhood Islamist group has been banned in Egypt for decades before being legalized following the ouster of President Hosni Mubarak in last year’s popular uprising, and has since emerged as a powerful political force.


:palm:

Once Sharia Law is kicked in, I wonder how long it will take before we see this in Egypt like they do in Iran? And yet liberals are celbrating the fact that an extremist won the vote

No retard, liberals are celebrating the election itself.
