Hamas, which has ruled Gaza since 2006, may serve as an example of what the Brotherhood wants: undivided power, including over the military. Likewise, the Egyptian army’s hold on power, beginning in the 1950’s, resulted in a decades-long military dictatorship.
不管是穆兄会还是军队获得胜利，都不是民主的胜利。2006年以来统治着加沙地带的哈马斯可以作为穆兄会意图的一个例子：完全的权力，包括军队。类似地，自20世纪50年代开始把持权力的埃及军队也是数十年军事独裁史的结果。
