this was the aryan brotherhood. i covered this up two years ago. came into prison august 17th of 2006. i covered this up september of the same year. three weeks after me being in prison. i had a case with another aryan, which they say i told on them. so i get down here and the same guys i supposedly told on are here in this prison. >> at the prison we've had a lot of problems with an aryan organization. the big problem is instead of fighting between each other, the whites and the blacks, what's been happening more recently is problems with the aryans going after each other. and a lot of it is because there's been influx with the organization, and their leadership, and there's a struggle for control. >> since dropping out of the aryan brotherhood, nick compton says being attacked is only one problem. >> i'm being extorted for money. my mother and sister sent me over $500 since i've been here. >> can you identify? >> yeah, no problem. >> compton is due to be released from prison in three months, but risks putting himself in greater danger with the ar

of the muslim brotherhood who went militant. some of the members of that group, which are obviously a terrific in using violence have since actually said they made a big mistake in assassinating him because they thought he was far more tolerant than mubarak. so it is interesting they have had a change of heart. but that particular group is no longer a major force and never really was a major force but they asserted themselves and very ugly ways, including the assassination of on moore's about. host: our next call is from hollywood, florida. caller: i am speaking as an egyptian american. i have lived in both countries and i see both sides of the story. one of the things i wanted to point out is egypt has suffered 60 years of for my lack of education. most people there have been pushed not to think of politics, but what they're going to have for dinner. on the other side, egyptian -- egypt is very important to the states, but the problem i see is it's another like of education, not in terms of illiteracy, but in terms of how the m

with the muslim brotherhood not potentially coming to power there is much for to be worried about. what you have to understand that the military council is nothing but an extension of the regime and they've been in close contact if not embed with israeli government for over thirty years now it could be a theatrical in order to take over and tighten the grip over the government if if a military action on israel's part is a virtual wall taking place not a real war so that they can put round all the activists throw them in prison and say egypt is in our economies in being threatened our our borders are being threatened we need to more or less assume power and position this is quite likely that the military council has been flying through the rain the whole democratic progress of egypt since day one and as we all know mubarak was in close contact with until the day he was arrested so all sorts of scenarios being put forth to derail the progress of egypt this is likely bought to launch a war against egypt this is highly remotely unlikely because they failed in two thousand and six again

, and a lot of people don't really like what the muslim brotherhood is selling. >> i hate muslim brotherhood. >> but this doctor, like many egyptians, believes the muslim brotherhood candidate is the lesser of two evils. >> you are voting for the muslim brotherhood. do you want egypt to be an islamic state with shaw rea la? >> absolutely notice. >> why are you voting for him if he is promising to do that. >> i don't agree with many of the muslim brotherhood policies, but we can modulate this. we can adopt this to our needs. >> christians in cairo headed to the supreme court for a protest against these twelve member. they say it's just another example of how bad conditions have gotten in this country. and they say it's the muslim brotherhood takes over andins statutes their law, many christians will have to leave their homeland in egypt. >> burned with nobody being arrested or tried. we've had people with their ears cut and mutilated by muslim finish -- fenatics. we've had homes destroyed. >> a number of christians have come out in support in order to try to help with the security situation.

the brotherhood are not good. i voted for them in the parliamentary elections, but there needs to be a variety. >> whoever the president will be, he will have a long list of demands. high on that list are security and the economy. the constitution has not yet been written, he will first need to know what actual powers he will be able to exercise in egypt. >> nearly a third of the olympic games tickets had been made available to the british public earlier this week. that means there is now a real prospect for the first time since it went on sale last year that belonged in games will not be sold out. the organizers are expected that all tickets would be snapped up quickly by the british public. the olympic torch juggernaut enters its second week. it makes its way around the united kingdom. the convoy left england and is entering whales for the first time. -- wales for the first time. >> it as being held as a milestone in space flight. the privately operated kraft has docked at the international space station. it is

but first egypt's early election results point to a runoff between a muslim brotherhood candidate and a former prime minister of the mubarak era the country's historic first presidential election since the uprising saw a low turnout and numerous complaints of ballot fraud but as artie's policy reports regardless of the outcome many think egypt's future could be cleek. it's a result that stunned many and has the potential to split the country into an islamist candidate put it against a member of the former regime mohamed morsi is the choice of the powerful muslim brotherhood well as much afic was the last prime minister to serve under hosni mubarak egyptians and now have to choose one or the other for the country's top job and no one is happy. because he has become the. candidate of the revolution should we get rid of the remnants of the regime and prevent the country from moving backwards but the muslim brotherhood is tainted by the same accusation and critics fear the group will stay egypt away from democracy into hardline islamic rule already the brotherhood controls more than half

taken by the muslim brotherhood. shafiq is playing on the fears of this system. interfering in personal lives, in art, culture, society, this is a threat. it is the effect of an islamist state. -- the threat of an islamist date. morsi -- state. morsi is playing on fears that shafiq might be a reinvention of mubarak. that it is civil society versus the deep state. they need bold steps to build bridges and a stronger declaration. the problem is that since mubarak's oust, the brotherhood did not show that. losing the voice is very dangerous. this in at the center position -- losing the center position, more abstention, what will happen if the turnout is 35%? who will win? i am not speculating. i am not campaigning. i think shafiq has a coalition with a stronger group. he has a bleak business people. he has members of the -- he has elite business people. he has members of the ndp. two quick points. shafiq is closer. this might be a problem for morsi. shafiq will suffer from the parliament and some interviews. i know the

the brotherhood candidates are member of the old regime. it has become a polarizing question that has deepened divisions. this is a protester who boycotted the first round of votes and is boycotting the runoff. >> the revolution should have known from day one we should not elections at the ballot box will not make the revolution. it will topple the revolution in each. [unintelligible] the president is being returned to the same old ways. everything is in the hands of the military council. mubarak was the weakest link in the chain. the regime is still there and performing. the only difference is we will change from mubarak to shafik or morsi.

>> they have already established a challenge for the brotherhood. the leadership of the muslim brotherhood has reassured the commitment to the commitment to their region and their commitment to israel and also the commitment to free-market economics. they have been basically talking to the islamists. i think the reality is that the islamists are here to stay. it will take ownership to morocco and jordan and libya as well. >> is this what democracy in the middle east will look like? >> remember, the example is not iran. iran is seen as a failed model, the theocracy that exists. turkey serves as an inspiration. the reason why turkey serves as an example, as lamas in egypt and other places, they have been able to marry western-style democracy with authenticity. and also, turkey is one of the most important economies in the world. islamists seem to be traveling a similar journey, and that is why more and more policy opinion is coming to realize the islamists represent a threat. >> when we look at syria, is egypt still the poster child of the arab spring
