Egyptians break into Israel Embassy in Cairo
AP via SFGate ^ | 9/9/11 | AYA BATRAWY, Associated Press

A group of about 30 protesters broke into the Israeli Embassy in Cairo Friday and dumped hundreds of documents out of the windows after a day of demonstrations outside the building in which crowds swinging sledge hammers and using their bare hands tore apart the embassy's security wall.

Hundreds of protesters converged on the embassy throughout the afternoon and into the night, tearing down large sections of the graffiti-covered security wall outside the 21-story building housing the embassy. Egyptian security forces made no attempt for hours to intervene.

Just before midnight, a group of protesters reached a room on one of the embassy's lower floors at the top of the building and began dumping Hebrew-language documents from the windows, said an Egyptian security official who spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak to the media.

Obviously tolerated if not encouraged by whoever is in charge there this week. Not encouraging.

There is something unsettling and yet unsurprising about this as we remember 9/11 this weekend.

“And all the inhabitants of Egypt shall know that I am the LORD, because they have been a staff of reed to the house of Israel.

“When they took hold of thee by thy hand, thou didst break, and rend all their shoulder: and when they leaned upon thee, thou brakest, and madest all their loins to be at a stand.

“Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will bring a sword upon thee, and cut off man and beast out of thee.

“And the land of Egypt shall be desolate and waste; and they shall know that I am the LORD: because he hath said, The river is mine, and I have made it.

“Behold, therefore I am against thee, and against thy rivers, and I will make the land of Egypt utterly waste and desolate, from the tower of Syene even unto the border of Ethiopia.

“No foot of man shall pass through it, nor foot of beast shall pass through it, neither shall it be inhabited forty years.

Yes, nice to have the word of the one you can trust.

I hope our Government will provide any signal or other Intel to help Israel in these dangerous times, but I’m concerned our Government may hold back this info....

Well, that would leave Egypt out of the future attack on Israel by all the nations.

Israel’s option of a invading attack from Egypt would be to drop a nuke on the Aswan dam ?

( * “And all the inhabitants of Egypt shall know that I am the LORD, because they have been a staff of reed to the house of Israel.
“When they took hold of thee by thy hand, thou didst break, and rend all their shoulder: and when they leaned upon thee, thou brakest, and madest all their loins to be at a stand.
“Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will bring a sword upon thee, and cut off man and beast out of thee.
“And the land of Egypt shall be desolate and waste; and they shall know that I am the LORD: because he hath said, The river is mine, and I have made it.
“Behold, therefore I am against thee, and against thy rivers, and I will make the land of Egypt utterly waste and desolate, from the tower of Syene even unto the border of Ethiopia.
“No foot of man shall pass through it, nor foot of beast shall pass through it, neither shall it be inhabited forty years.
And I will make the land of Egypt desolate in the midst of the countries that are desolate, and her cities among the cities that are laid waste shall be desolate forty years: and I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and will disperse them through the countries” (Ezek. 29:6-12)

" Yes, nice to have the word of the one you can trust. "

The tower of Syene from this prophecy web site is the Aswan dam in Egypt.

( * "I fear we may be too late (my personal opinion). Time will tell of course, but if these events against Israel pick up steam over the next 4-6 months, we could be in for a whole new world." * )

" Yes, Obama is really sewing dragons teeth all over the world. He has aided the Islamists all across North Africa and what is happening in Egypt was widely predicted in conservative circles. Obama has helped run cover for the Iran nuclear program. As soon as US troops are drawn down to a token in Iraq, that counterweight will be gone. The stage is set for an explosion within the next six month and Obama will light the fuse if things turn further against him domestically."


“Son of man, set thy face against Pharaoh king of Egypt, and prophesy against him, and against all Egypt:
“Speak, and say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against thee, Pharaoh king of Egypt, the great dragon that lieth in the midst of his rivers, which hath said, My river is mine own, and I have made it for myself.
“But I will put hooks in thy jaws, and I will cause the fish of thy rivers to stick unto thy scales, and I will bring thee up out of the midst of thy rivers, and all the fish of thy rivers shall stick unto thy scales.
“And I will leave thee thrown into the wilderness, thee and all the fish of thy rivers: thou shalt fall upon the open fields; thou shalt not be brought together, nor gathered: I have given thee for meat to the beasts of the field and to the fowls of the heaven” (Ezek. 29:2-5).

The prophecy does not say it will be Israel, just that it will happen because of Egypts betrayal and animosity towards Israel. The author interprets what he thinks the details of this are and what will be the end result of the destruction.
