    Wow, not even yet a comment on this?
    Let’s be realistic. Despite what was said in this report, democracy will obviously bring only islam to power. Honestly, just look around you: what kind of people do you see? Whom do you think they would vote for? What is the only powerful political party with people’s support ‘and this even being forbidden)?
