Apparently, another weak spot in the geography is the Sinai. It’s a demilitarized zone and I hear it’s become a haven for terrorists. They can go into gaza from there.
Both Egypt and Israel have been in a quandry as to how to deal with Sinai. If Egypt were to patrol it, then it becomes a security risk for Israel, and is against the agreement between both countries to have their militarys there. So, both chose to honor that agreement.
The mess in the middle east is extremely complex, and I’m only just tapping the edges trying to understand the situation there.
It took someone else to explain to me, some of it. Makes my head spin.
