Democtatically elected

it is ridiculous that all the west cares about is if a party is democratically elected or not. Heaven forbid there is election tampering, the worst sin of all (which is a joke anyway since there is tremendous intimidation and other tampering). So if a terror group is elected, such as Hamas in Gaza, they are then looked upon as legitimate and can continue their terror and terror offshoots with impunity. The Moslem Brotherhood remains a terror organization, they just learned a few lessons to make themselves more palpable to the west.
