True.... although I was more thinking of the Arab-Gas pipeline and Israel's imports of cheap Egyptian gas.

Re: Events in Egypt
from Al aljazeera.net
"What makes this so significant is that this is in the Sinai Peninsula. Under the terms of the Camp David accord, a peace treaty signed between Israel and Egypt, there was to be complete restrictions on any military ever entering the Sinai. It was always that the security in the Sinai could only ever be handled by police forces. This would indicate that police are no longer doing their job in the Sinai peninsula."

Re: Events in Egypt
muslim brotherhood don't seem to be an extremist group, however that may change when a struggle for takeover begins, true colours might come out.
personally from the last couple of times I have been in Cairo, they don't seem to be a likely candidate for an Islamic type state, I think the door of westernisation is open and they would find it very hard to revert back now.

All these situations are very depressing. Many people will be killed and I bet little will change for the common man.

Pathetic.
