Another Islamist movement, Algeria’s Islamic Salvation Front, almost had such an opportunity in 1991, when it won the first round of a general election. But the military prevented its victory by canceling the second round, triggering a brutal eight-year civil war in which an estimated 200,000 people died.
另一个伊斯兰教运动——阿尔及利亚的伊斯兰拯救阵线在1991年几乎迎来了这样一次机会。它赢得了第一轮大选。但军队取消了第二轮大选，从而阻止了它获得胜利，并引发了一场为时八年的内战，约20万人因此丧生。巴勒斯坦的哈马斯也属于穆兄会的分支，它成功地在2006年选战中胜出，但此后并未交出令人信服的治理成绩。
