Egyptian Foreign Affairs Council member Ahmed Abdel Halim, member said Sunday that "an Israeli attack against Egyptians in Sinai is impossible."
| For a given value of impossible that means very possible indeed, I quite agree. |
As for the bolstering Egyptian Army's presence in Sinai, Halim said: "We have informed Israel that we were sending more troops than allowed in the Camp David Accords, so we could conclude all the military operations in Sinai. This is so that Israel stays calm; we will not act against it," he said. |
