Well, obviously not. But let's also keep in mind -- that the turn out was 60% (what do the remaining 40% favor? Perhaps not business as usual.) -- that the western press very much wants everyone to believe that there is only the choice between soft/hard fundamentalism and some kind of puppet imperialist regime. -- that the vast number of people in the streets are asking for a third choice
So, it's a complex picture.
