Morsi warns Israel will pay heavy price

Egyptian president sharpens his tone against Israel, threatening: 'If I see the homeland in danger, I won't hesitate to take unusual steps.' He vows that his country will 'stop this brutal aggression'

After concluding the Friday prayer at a mosque in Cairo, Morsi warned Israel of the consequences of its strikes in Gaza. According to the al- Shorouk newspaper, Morsi tweeted on his Twitter page: "We have the power to uproot the aggressiveness just like it uprooted exploitation.

"I don't want to take unusual steps," Morsi added, "but if I see that the homeland is in danger, I won't hesitate."

Morsi said earlier that "Gaza will not remain alone as it was," adding that the aggressors "know they will pay a heavy price is they continue their aggression."

He further said that the post-Mubarak Egypt was completely different and that all Egyptians were determined to stop the offensive on the Gaza Strip.

According to Morsi, "The blood spilled over there will not get the other side peace and will serve as a curse on them. It will incite all the people of the region against them."

Morsi added that the Egyptian prime minister's visit to Gaza stressed the message stressed by revolutionary Egypt and will "stop this brutal aggressiveness."

He also said that "the Egyptians throughout their history were not an aggressive people, but they are capable of stopping any attack."

Thank You So Much Onyx!

Hey, how did you get the Hebrew Letters like that? I normally have to translate everything into Latin characters when I want to say something like that.

Google “Nuke Aswan Dam”.

Of course the Israelis have gone over every conceivable scenario for breaching the Aswan High Dam. It is said the 1973 war ended in ceasefire only when Sadat was persuaded that an attack on the dam was imminent.

Most studies I have read say the Aswan Dam is vulnerable only to a nuke strike due to its sheer massiveness (it’s a huge pile of quarried rubble, not stressed concrete), but were it to be breached, the flooding from Lake Nasser would not wash Cairo into the sea.

The flooding would however destroy the Egyptian agrarian economy and they already have to import food.

Morsi will huff & puff & threaten, but even he knows what that got Nasser. And the chances of a 1973 style Yom Kippur sneak attack are practically nil.

However, there’s a huge overpopulation in Egypt of unemployed womanless young males. Losing a few million of them in hopeless jihad against the hated Jews wouldn’t be that great a loss to the Ikhwan leadership.

Won’t happen this go around. Morsi has just had his oh-sugar moment & is calling for a ceasefire. Bad start for the Islamist who vowed to end the 1979 treaty.

Must have seen the smoking ruins of the Hamas HQ/mansion. IAF rocks!
