Egyptian Major General Osama Askar has claimed that the military has captured multiple missiles that it believes belong to Palestinian faction Hamas, and has accused the group of “terrorizing” Egyptians.
Hamas enjoyed relatively good relations with the elected government of Egypt, and in the days before the military coup, the military deployed significant military forces to the Gaza border to prevent Hamas infiltration.
Maj. Gen. Askar accused Hamas of plotting attacks to “help the Muslim Brotherhood against the Egyptian people,” part of a growing effort by the new junta to portray the ousted government as “terrorists” for not immediately endorsing a coup against them.
Blaming Hamas also ensures continued Israeli support for the military operations in Sinai. Israel has embraced the offensive so far, but there are growing concerns that the offensive will lead to spillover against Israeli territory, especially with any such offensives by necessity coming with an Israeli imprimatur.
This is why these regimes have to go. They are the ones that have allowed Israel to become so arrogant. Because of these traitors the Israelis almost feel justified and entitled to what they do to the Palestinians. Last week for the first time ever the Egyptian air-force flew a plane over Gaza to intimidate Hamas and the Gazans. Several days ago they claimed that Hamas killed the peaceful demonstrators in front of the republican guards building. In the past they claimed that President Morsi's guards consisted of 30,000 Hamas fighters (Even Israel claims there is about 16,000 Qassam fighters). The corrupt media peddles stories that the Palestinians are seeking to make the Sinai their homeland and that the Gazans are competing with Egyptians for jobs, housing and wealth. Its a cruel joke perpetrated against some gullible Egyptians. And the Americans who support Israel at all costs and subvert Egyptian democracy wonder "why they hate us so much?"
Tell this fu*k that Hamas is not a superpower, it is a cornered movement in a concentration camp called Gaza. He is trying to deflect the attention from the military power grab after thew coup.
One-and-half million terrorising 80+ million!?The egyptians should be nuts!
This is yet another Israeli demand, get rid of all and every elements whom are against Israelis apartheid regime then we will talk about the peace process including Assad, Iran, Russia, South America progressive governments and so on, otherwise Israel will continue supporting all and every terrorists groups there is to prolong the Syrian war which will give them the opportunity not willing for peace to be implemented in Middle East. Look: Apartheid regime reserves the right to be fascist based on being resist, orthodox nationalist or fundamental nationalism growing to a total fascist states and Israel have passed that time not because of Israel but because of USA and EU paying the regime to be what it is, the Israeli political lobby consist of americans and israelis APIAC is the core of that trend and many of these people are the member of US democratic party from Henry Kissinger to Madeline Albright and others.
