Such rot as terrorists must be destroyed all over the Earth. Thanks to the “democratizers," they have bred everywhere.

Once the "democratizers" are neutralized, the terrorists themselves will slowly disappear.

Egypt, even the Israeli Air Force helps in this. It seems that they have their own reason.

[starogil]

Therefore, they help that Israel needs to keep Egypt at a distance away from Syria,
so as not to make friends against the instigator, though.

[Strips]

No, that's not why.

Just without the help of Israel, Egypt on the Sinai Peninsula will not be able to really fight terrorists and the Sinai Peninsula will turn into a terrorist enclave near Israel.

Terrorists have already launched rockets in Israel from the Sinai Peninsula.

I agree, only who does Egypt mean by "terrorists" in the Sinai ..?
I have vague suspicions .. hehe I'm glad for the Egyptians, let them study and we will help if that ..!

Wow, every Middle Eastern country has its own terrorist sore, for the elimination of which it is necessary to use large forces of the army and navy. And not the fact that this will bring success. Virtue infected everyone, it was enough for everyone.

No matter how our Western and Middle Eastern partners suffer

[Zina389]

Hamas will certainly suffer. All weapons are supplied to them through these terrorist units in the Sinai. Hence Israel’s interest, which allowed Egypt to enter significant military units beyond those permitted under the peace treaty and provides air support.

Israel's interest ... ISIS in Syria and Iraq. Al Qaeda in the same place and in Sinai, Muslim Brotherhood everywhere. And the fact that people die ... C'mon, where are the people?

[Zina389]

It is not clear why continue to spread the lie when even TASS is telling the truth. Egypt is at war with the Islamic State and Muslim brothers in the Sinai. The Gaza Strip, where Islamic terrorists operate, Hamas has only 2 borders, with Israel and Egypt. Obviously, weapons for Hamas come from Egypt. Thus, the Islamic State and Muslim brothers in Sinai are enemies of Israel, and they kill Egyptian soldiers almost every day. Here Egypt and Israel decided to close this shop. If successful, the next in line is Hamas.
