City: MetulaState:
Under the peace agreement, the number of troops that can be deployed by Egypt between the Egyptian Sinai and Gaza was limited to 750. Any increased Egyptian troop deployments compromises the demilitarization of the Sinai. Today it`s a few battalions, tomorrow there might be far more. After all these years of ?peace?, Egypt has huge militairy expenses while its generals admit that the enemy is Israel. There is no doubt that in case of a general conflict in the Middle-East Egypt will fight in the camp of the enemies of Israel. Egypt as any other Arab country should not be trusted.For a global explaination of the Middle-East reality : http://israelagainstterror.blogspot.com/2008/01/stop-them-with-clear-cut-victory-part-i.html
