ed note–as much as those of us who have been watching this situation for years would like to think it is a good thing, the fact is that it will be used by Israel in order to create a pre-arranged narrative that eventually results in war with Egypt. Israel has been seething ever since 1979 when she was forced to give up the Sinai as part of the peace deal.
Israel considers Sinai to be part of ‘greater Israel’. Within the Sinai Peninsula is Mt Sinai, the place where the Jews believe Moses was given the Ten Commandments and is therefore one of Judaism’s holiest spots. Furthermore, Israel craves its strategic importance in terms of both territory and natural resources. Unless Egypt forms a strategic alliance with Russia, COMPLETE WITH A MUTUAL DEFENSE TREATY, the sad fact is that these developments will lead to the PULVERIZATION of Egypt by the Jewish statem and why should anyone be surprised? After all, one of Judaism’s most impotant religious feasts is Passover, where Jews worldwide celebrate the destruction of Egypt.
TEHRAN (FNA)- A senior member of the Egyptian Al-Ikhwan al-Muslimun (Muslim Brotherhood) party said that the era of Egypt’s blind obedience to the US and West’s policies has ended, and stressed that the country will no more tolerate foreign interference in its internal affairs.
“The US should know that after January 25 (2011) revolution, Egypt has become completely different from the previous Egypt,” Zakaria al-Jenaini told FNA in Cairo on Monday.
“The West and the international community should understand the fact that Egypt is no more what it was and will no more tolerate foreign meddling in its internal affairs,” he noted, and called on Washington to start interaction and cooperation with Egypt’s democratically elected parliament and government and give up the attempts it is making to destabilize the country.
Earlier, a spokesman for the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood party lambasted Washington for interfering in Egypt’s internal affairs, including the use of its financial resources against Islamist parties.
“The US embassy in Cairo supports certain Egyptian parties under the name of supporting democracy and all these aids are aimed at hitting a blow to Ikhwan al-Muslimun,” Mahmoud Qazalan told FNA late in December.
He reminded the United States’ financial support for certain Egyptian groups is a direct interference in his country’s internal affairs, and further urged all Egyptian parties to rely on their own power and members, warning that foreigners’ financial aids are provided to meet their own political interests.
