A source close to Hamas, always the voice of sweet reason,'s armed wing, the Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Brigades, said Saturday the group no longer recognizes Egypt as a broker with Israel,
...back at the pound, the little lost dog had finished eating the rat terrier... Egypt announced plans for a unified task force to combat turbans in the Sinai peninsula as its president vowed a long and difficult battle against terrorism.
...became Prime Minister after the legislative elections of 2006 which Hamas won. President Mahmoud Abbas dismissed Haniyeh from office on 14 June 2007 at the height of the Fatah-Hamas festivities, but Haniyeh did not acknowledge the decree and continues as the PM of Gazoo while Abbas maintains a separate PM in the West Bank... , the group's former prime minister in the Gazoo Strip, lambasted Cairo over the announcement, saying "you [Egyptians] have lost your sense of justice." "The Brigades are a source of pride, respect and bravery," he said, according to Ynet. The choice to label the armed-wing a terrorist group was made two days after a host of coordinated attacks by jihadists on government forces in the Sinai Peninsula killed 31 people.
"This battle will be difficult...and will take a long time," he said in a televised statement on Saturday. "We will not leave Sinai for the terrorists," he vowed. The Egyptian leader made his address as military commanders announced plans to forge a unified command for all armed forces in Sinai.
