11:23Now PlayingDemocracyNow.org - Early results from Egypt's first post-revolutionary elections indicate the Muslim Brotherhood's Freedom and Justice party will emerge as the biggest winner. We speak with Democracy Now! special correspondent Anjali Kamat who has just returned to the United States after reporting in Cairo since the fall of former president Hosni Mubarak. Anjali describes how Egypt's elections take place against the backdrop of economic insecurity, and renewed street clashes between pro-democracy demonstrators and security forces that have left more than 40 dead and thousands injured. She also discusses Egypt's use of U.S.-supplied tear gas to quell massive demonstrations, and a photo she took of police dragging protesters injured by rubber bullets and live ammunition, then leaving them in piles of garbage.
