Islamic Jihad maintains presence in Egypt
2003-08-28
The Palestinian Islamic Jihad has sought to maintain a presence in Egypt.
Presumably on the off chance Syria could become too hot for them...
Western intelligence sources said Jihad has established a network in Cairo as well as the Sinai Peninsula. They said the Jihad presence is meant to smuggle both insurgents and weapons into the Gaza Strip. The Jihad presence in Egypt was detected in early 2003. They said Jihad recruited Egyptians to help facilitate the smuggling of weapons and explosives from the Egyptian-controlled part of Rafah to that controlled by the Palestinian Authority. The arms flow, the sources said, has been financed by Iran and begins in Sudan. They said the weapons moves through Cairo International Airport and then overland through the Sinai Peninsula to Rafah.
Sudan's fingers are getting all stinky again. They were on good behavior for awhile. We knew all about the Iranian financing, though...

#1  Follow the money. It all boils down to both Iran and Saudi Arabia as the funding sources. We have to dry up the sources by any AND all means. Lybia seems to be cool lately. No money, no IJ, no Hamas, no Hizbollah, no Al-Aqsa Bozos Brigade, no boomers. I hope that we have a plan before all the oil money we give the Saudis becomes a Nuke aimed at us or Israel.
