"The Muslim Brotherhood, the country’s dominate political and religious force, won 47% of the 498 seats in the lower house of parliament, according to official final results. The ultraconservative Salafi Islamist party Al Nour won nearly 25%, followed by the secular parties New Wafd and the Egyptian Bloc, with about 9% each.
...The relatively moderate Brotherhood and the puritanical Salafis will likely battle over how deeply Islam should shape the constitution and be ingrained in public life. Both parties have said social and economic challenges are the most pressing concerns, but the Salafis, who receive funding from Persian Gulf nations, are certain to push for an Egypt more rooted in sharia, or Islamic law."

Brave Amreeki in action, doing what they do best:
“I did not feel I had to [positively identify] individuals” as threats, Tatum said. He also testified that he was shooting at “silhouettes,” some shapes large, others small, but that he did not feel anything he did that day was wrong. Yet in copies of interviews for the 2006 NCIS report available on Broomfield’s website, Tatum admits to seeing children “kneeling down” in the room and Wuterich “firing at them.”
“I was trained to shoot two shots to the head and two shots to the chest and I followed my training,” he said in an amended statement (.pdf), signed by Tatum and dated April 3, 2006.
“I regret children had to die that day but I also know I did what I had to do.”

how DARE they democratically get 25% of the vote?
Bruno and his Boer brethren are still murdering blacks whenever they get the chance. Here's a news report from the BBC website:
The Afrikaners hurled racial slurs - calling the blacks "baboons" and "kaffirs" - both derogatory names used to refer to black people.
This was far removed from Nelson Mandela's vision of a new South Africa - a rainbow nation.
In the days of apartheid, the Afrikaners used to dominate South Africa and some still yearn for those days.
Many agree that Saturday's brutal murder has turned a town which had learned to cope with its racism into one which now calls for drastic action including taking up arms, if only for protection.
This has caused a wave of fear in black residents of South Africa's farming areas, where racism remains rife.
In the rest of the country, open signs of racism are rare but black and white South Africans largely lead separate lives.
"I live in the township a few kilometres from town and we don't feel safe as blacks, especially now Terreblanche has been killed," said university student Lesego Tsui.
"I don't even want to go out at night any more because you don't know if the Boers [whites] will come after us."
