Egypt as much guilty as Zionists in Gaza blockade

It is understandable that Zionists don’t care about Gaza’s population. They are giving collective punishment to them for daring to elect a government which it does not like.
But why does Egypt feel Zionist pain? Gaza shares border with Egypt. But Egypt has placed exactly the same blockade as the terrorist regime on Gaza population.

Gaza people have no issues with Egypt. The reasons Egypt is supporting Zionists in this economic blockage of Gazans is to appease Amreekans, and also their fear of Ikhwan.

After the killings of that flotilla passengers by Zionists, Egypt has temporarily allowed some goods to pass through Gaza. But these goods still are very basic supplies just enough to prevent Gazans from starvation. They still are not allowing building material, which Gaza needs for rebuilding after Izraelis unleashed its last war on these people.
Egypt did not open its border due to the sufferings of Gazans, but only to appease its population.

I hope Husni Mubarak’s government, another dictatorship supported by Amreeki democracy, comes down soon.

Egypt partially opened its border with the Gaza Strip on Wednesday, briefly suspending its participation with Israel’s blockade of the impoverished Palestinian territory.
…
More than 100 Palestinians were allowed through the Rafah crossing into Egypt Wednesday and several truckloads of goods were sent into Gaza. But Egypt restricts the types of goods allowed into Gaza and only Palestinians with special permits are allowed to cross – mostly students and those seeking medical treatment.

In the past, Egypt has cracked down hard on protests calling for an open border with Gaza. But Israel’s killing of nine activists during the Monday raid stoked a new fury across the Muslim world and left Egypt in a difficult position. A partial opening at Rafah was what the regime had to do to keep the ire from overflowing, said many Egyptians.
…
Rafah is mainly used as a crossing for people, not goods, but** Egypt has permitted some aid, mostly medical supplies, into the territory. It has not allowed the building supplies Gaza needs to rebuild after Israel’s offensive last year**.
…
Egypt’s position has not only provoked the ire of its citizens, but has provided an opportunity for rival Arab states to criticize the regime. Opening the border now will keep countries like Qatar and Syria from accusing Egypt of siding with Israel, says Mr. Gad.

Re: Egypt as much guilty as Zionists in Gaza blockade

I am sorry back up your claim that Egypt has killed more Muslims than Israel. That is just amazingly stupid. More important the Mubarak government is a totaliarian government supported through the US with very little support from the Egyptain people.

As long as we make the distinction between the Egyptain people and the Government I agree with the original poster.

Re: Egypt as much guilty as Zionists in Gaza blockade

the lack of replies is due to the fact that egypt is in a similar position to pakistan. and to approve of the brotherhood for egypt would be like approving of ttp for pakistan!

some silences are interesting, this is one of them

I think Egypt's support of Israel in collective incarceration of Gaza population is not just a slap in Egypt's face but also in the face of Muslims all over the world.

If Husni Mubarak is a fanatic then OIC and Arab League should do something about Egypt. They can sever relations with Egypt until the time it opens up goods-passage for Gaza. Or some other action which may show Egyptians how Muslims around the world feels about of its sycophant leaders.

Having said that, who in Islamic world has the guts to say anything that Zionist America does not like? Gulf Arab countries are worse than Egypt when it comes to pleasing American Zionists.

That is a ridiculous post. The Brotherhood is committed to peaceful action and participation in the democratic process (in fact the Brotherhood is one of the main factiosn pushing for full democracy in Egypt).

The TTP is committed to murder.

Saudis will be facing the same mujahideen soon, infact that whole region is waking up and is going to put on a show that the world has never seen before. Pakistan is joining too inshaAllah. Time will tell.

Saudi yahoods are running to their masters…

Saudi Prince Turki bin Abdul Aziz Al Saud has warned the country’s royal family to step down and flee before a military coup or a popular uprising overthrows the kingdom.

In a letter published by Wagze news agency on Tuesday, the Cairo-based prince warned Saudi Arabia’s ruling family of a fate similar to that of Iraq’s executed dictator Saddam Hussein and the ousted Iranian Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, calling on them to escape before people “cut off our heads in streets.”

He warned that the Saudi royal family is no longer able to “impose” itself on people, arguing that deviations in carrying out the religious concepts that make up the basis of the Saudi government “have gotten out of our hands,” so that the opposition views our acts as “interfering in people’s private life and restricting their liberties.”

“If we are wise, we must leave this country to its people, whose dislike for us is increasing,” said Prince Turki, advising Saudi officials to escape with their families.

“Do it today before tomorrow as long as the money we have is enough for us to live anywhere in the world; from Switzerland to Canada and Australia…we should not return as long as we are able to get out safely, we must take our families quickly and pull out,” he urged.

“Do not fool yourself by relying on the United States or Britain or Israel, because they will not survive the loss; the only door open is now the exit door of no return. Let us go before it closes.”

He finally warned against a military coup against the ruling family, saying “no one will attack us from outside but our armed forces will attack us.”

Prince Turki is a member of the liberal Free Princes movement founded in the 1950s amid tensions between King Faisal and his brother King Saud, requesting the Saudi authorities to implement political reforms and set out a constitution.

The late King Faisal expelled members of the civil rights group to Egypt but later on pardoned them.

You mean mufsideen, enemies of Islam. Taliban and fellow fasadis.

By the way, the thread is not about how good or bad Ikhwan is. It is about Muslims doing anything about Gazans by punishing one of their own (Egypt), instead of just shouting and cursing Zionists.

its not just egyptian govt. look at wat Jordan has done over the years..if any one can remember the Black September, and arab wars of 67, 73.
most of the muslim governments all over the world are like that..not caring for the ppl they rule.
