Brotherhood wasn't going to run a candidate for President of Egypt? Of
course, they're running a <http://www.almasryalyoum.com/en/node/455693>
candidate for President of Egypt.

Muslim Brotherhood Sheikh Hazem Abu Ismail announced his intention to run in
Egypt's upcoming presidential elections.

He said that if elected he would implement Islamic sharia law and cancel the
peace treaty between Egypt and Israel.

Ismail was the Brotherhood's candidate in 2005 parliamentary elections for
Dokki in Giza.

The group announced earlier that it would not take part in the presidential
elections and confirmed that it would compete for only half the seats in
Parliament. But Ismail is the second Brotherhood member to have announced
his intention to run for president in defiance of the group's leadership.
The other Brotherhood candidate is Abdel Moneim Abouel Fotouh, a
liberal-minded Islamist.

Abu Ismail said Saturday during a speech in a Dokki mosque that he will
sweep the elections. Since he is an ordinary man, he said, the masses will
support him.

...

Concerning the peace treaty with Israel, he said, "The Camp David peace
treaty is insulting to the Egyptian people, so it must be canceled, and I
will do my best to convince people to cancel it."
