The Suez Canal is a huge cash cow for Egypt. If that sea traffic gets constricted Egypt would suck in a hurry. It would indeed be refreshing to see the Egypts get off their camel buttz and use some of that 2 billion worth of hardware we give them every year to help out in the neighborhood-——they don’t bitch as much about Israel as they used to but there is plenty of other stuff they could be doing. Like, oh, say, stopping Iran smuggling weapons to Hamas/Hezbollah. And It’s muzzie-on-muzzie violence at its best so I’ll look for the down side later.
Does getting off their camel buttz include the recent bombing run in Libya after the group of Egyptian Christians were publically executed in Libya by ISIL supporters? Actually, I was surprised that they took any action for Christians.
