Egypt: Muslim Brotherhood plans Political Party

I can't see anything good coming out of this. :banghead:  Not unexpected, but still.  Well, there went another sorta friendly ME quasi ally.


CAIRO — Egypt's long banned Muslim Brotherhood said Tuesday it intends to form a political party once democracy is established, as the country's new military rulers launched a panel of experts to amend the country's constitution enough to allow democratic elections later this year.

The military is trying to push ahead quickly with a transition after Mubarak resigned Friday in the face of 18 days of unprecedented popular protests that massed hundreds of thousands. The panel is to draw up changes at a breakneck pace — within 10 days — to end the monopoly that ousted President Hosni Mubarak's ruling party once held

Gee, given all the factionalization over there at the moment, who didn't see this coming.

Looks like Egypt's first free election will also be it's last, if the islamofascists gets involved.

Wasn't that their plan all along? Now that you useful idiots have been used to the fullest extent possible....you can now return to wringing your hands and whinning.
