New Details Exposed About Sinai Terror Attack
Arutz Sheva ^ | 14/8/12 | Elad Benari

Posted on 08/14/2012 2:15:13 PM PDT by Eleutheria5

New details were revealed Monday about last week’s terror attack in the Sinai Peninsula, in which 16 Egyptian officers were killed and seven were wounded. Among the details published by the Bawaba al-Ahram website were also the names of some of the terrorists who carried out the attack.

The report identified the following terrorists: Hatem A, 37, from Cairo; Yihya A., 19, from Gharbia; Mohammed M., 30, from Sinai; Mohammed A S. from Gharbia; and Mohammed M., who reportedly has Palestinian Authority citizenship.

An investigation into the attack by Egyptian intelligence revealed that Hatem A. came to Al-Arish about two months ago and bought farmland from one of the tribes in the Sinai. Hatem would arrive in the area often and resided in a tent he erected on the land he bought.

Residents in the area said, according to the Bawaba al-Ahram report, that Hatem would come to the area with other people who were driving in a modern SUV and riding a motorcycle. They observed that there was a correlation between his arrivals and the constant attacks that have been carried out on the pipeline which carries natural gas to Israel and Jordan.

Hatem’s activities seemed suspicious to local residents and led them to report Hatem to Egyptian intelligence. The report said that intelligence officials arrived in the Sinai a few days ago and conducted a thorough investigation. Local residents also said that Egyptian army forces arrived in a village located in the northern Sinai in recent days, where they encountered fire from terrorists. After the terrorists were killed in an exchange of fire, the soldiers found five anti-aircraft missiles, five mines, mortar shells, materials meant to produce explosives and a large amount of ammunition.

This IS related to the Islamist election victory in Egypt.

The MB and Al-Queda types are two sides of the same coin, and often supported by the same money sources in Saudi Arabia (as long as they do it outside the kingdom).

One admits he’ll use violence and the other says he’s against violence, while he does not say that what he is for is subversion.

The MB plays “good cop” to the Al Queda “bad cop”.

The purpose of the “bad cop” is to draw people into cooperation with the “good cop”.

The Islamists have started to set the new anti-Israel tone of the new Egyptian government, and as government policy more Egyptians will identify with it.

Now it’s just up to the bad cop, to create an incident(s) with Israel and hope to draw the Israeli military and Egyptian military into confrontation(s).

The MB has already set the Islamist-nationalist stage for pursuing such confrontations in the spirit of that Islamist nationalism, and in the midst of it, increasing Sharia style internal changes and feeding hatred of Jews.

Thanks Eleutheria5.
...in which 16 Egyptian officers were killed and seven were wounded... report identified the following terrorists: Hatem A, 37, from Cairo; Yihya A., 19, from Gharbia; Mohammed M., 30, from Sinai; Mohammed A S. from Gharbia; and Mohammed M., who reportedly has Palestinian Authority citizenship... Residents in the area... observed that there was a correlation between his arrivals and the constant attacks that have been carried out on the pipeline which carries natural gas to Israel and Jordan... intelligence officials arrived in the Sinai a few days ago and conducted a thorough investigation...
...and the conclusion drawn by the new regime will be, we need to renegotiate the treaty with Israel.
