On the contrary, the Government of Egypt, and the entirety of the Arab League except for King Abdullah's treasonous regime in Transjordan, recognised the independence and sovereignty of Palestine under the All-State Palestine Government. Whereas Abdullah of Transjordan illegally annexed Palestine's West Bank, Egypt merely administered (but never claimed sovereignty over) Gaza.

Don't you? If it wasn't obvious at the time, it should be obvious now.<br /><br /><i>The army announced some military operation called “Eagle” if you remember. Till this moment we do not its progress and actually all the indications in Sinai. From what I see the terrorists and the Jihadists have not been stopped at all.</i><br /><br />That was obvious theatrics right from the start. It was apparent even in the statements Egyptian officials were making to the media. And why would you think the Muslim Brotherhood even cared about cracking down on terrorists and jihadists? The Muslim Brotherhood has been sponsoring terrorists and jihadists for more than 30 years. They are going to arrest and imprison their own allies and clients? Right.<br /><br /><i>Of course one would dream to have a real constitution and a real parliament that would bring both the minister of defense and the head of the intelligence and ask them about what happened to our soldiers in a public hearing like the congressional hearings we saw about Iraq and Afghanistan.</i><br /><br />And what results have we gotten with a similar process in regards to the Benghazi coverup? Nothing. No answers. No arrests. No suspects. Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
