<p>Dear Friend of FLAME:</p>
<p>Brace yourself for a new Middle East: Islamists just won a large majority in Egypt's recent elections---bigger than anyone in the mainstream media dared to predict.</p>
<p>To the contrary: For months commentators at CNN and <em>The</em> <em>New York Times </em>have been assuring us in the face of all facts that not only is Egypt's radical Islamic Muslim Brotherhood <span style="text-decoration: underline;">a peaceful, moderate force</span>, but also that the group would <span style="text-decoration: underline;">not</span> be a significant political player in the so-called "Arab democracy movement."</p>
<p>We at FLAME were not fooled and have fully documented the <span style="text-decoration: underline;">terrorist roots, connections and murderous mission</span> of the Muslim Brotherhood (MB). Let's start with the fact that the MB is the parent organization of the Palestinian terrorist group Hamas and that al Qaeda founder Ayman al Zawahiri was primarily inspired by notorious Brotherhood founder Sayyid Qutb.</p>
<p>Yes, those gullible Middle East commentators (as well as numerous U.S. diplomats) insisted that the Muslim Brotherhood would take no more than 20-30% of the final vote in Egypt---but the highly organized MB actually captured 36% of the early vote! What's even worse---much worse---the Salafist Nour party, an <em>even more hard-line</em> Islamist group, took an additional 25% of the vote. When final votes are in from rural areas, we predict <span style="text-decoration: underline;">the two parties will capture an astonishing 65-70% of the vote</span>.</p>
