To heck with that. They should be bouncing a practice bomber labeled “20KT” off of the Aswan dam and dropping leaflets in Arabic with the legend “How well can you swim?”

I think that would “sink” in.

The Aswan High Dam is Egypt’s permanent Achilles’ heel.

The Soviets built it as the world’s biggest mass of quarried rubble, more than a kilometer thick at its base, to absorb any explosive smaller than a nuke like a sponge.

But push Israel’s back to the wall, and they will use nukes to breach the Aswan Dam. This threat was first used in 1973 when Henry Kissinger the `peacemaker’ warned the Egyptians what would happen if they tried to push across the Sinai into Israel proper.

The stupidity level of the Muslim Brotherhood in power has not yet been determined. But if they abrogate the 1979 treaty then all bets are off and a google map satellite image of the Aswan Dam with crosshairs on it will quickly go viral, captioned “Do you feel lucky? Well, do you, punk?”
