Egypt and the Aggressive Claims against Hizbullah

"Israel" and Egypt are looking for ways to get even with ‘opponents' or to escape forward.

For "Israel", Egypt's most recent critical stance regarding Avigdore Lieberman's appointment as FM and Cairo's refusal to attend a ceremony marking 30 years of relations, shows that it is no longer "business as usual" between the two countries. Also, the inevitable vengeance for the 2008 assassination of top Islamic Resistance commander martyr Imad Moghnieh is still haunting "Israel".

Generally speaking, the row between Egypt and the Zionist entity could be settled through diplomatic channels. Yet, "Israel's" new extremist government is unlikely to stand silent on Cairo's stance. "Israel" has defied the US and the international community and has tumbled down years of hard talks by refusing a two state solution in occupied Palestine.

The Zionist state's coup de maitre came Wednesday when it warned "Israelis" of "an imminent attack" in Egypt's Sinai and called on the several thousand "Israelis" in the Peninsula to leave immediately and abandon plans to mark "Passover" holiday there.

Meanwhile, Egypt was still disarrayed especially after its isolation by most Arabs was established in the Doha Arab summit, mainly for its insistence on isolating Gaza and keeping the Rafah crossing closed during war.
Cairo has adopted the policy of escaping forward to discharge distress on the one hand and to take vengeance on Hizbullah, the party whose chief criticized the Egyptian regime for its position on the "Israeli" war on Gaza.

On Wednesday, Egypt's state prosecutor claimed that Hizbullah was plotting to carry out attacks inside the country and ‘spreading Shiite ideology in Egypt."

According to a statement from the prosecutor, "Egypt's attorney general received a note from state security about information confirmed by questioning about Hizbullah leaders sending some elements to the county to attract members to work with the organization and persuade them to join its ranks with the aim of carrying out acts of aggression inside the country."
However, the statement did not give details of possible attacks.

Hizbullah stressed on many occasions that it had no activity outside Lebanon and that its sole focus was on countering "Israeli" threats against Lebanon and confronting any Zionist aggression on its soil.
