#1 I think the Muzzies must have a new secret electonic weapon - none of us seem to be able to keep either our surprise or our sympathy meters working for more than a day at a time.

#2 note, hes calling for them to immediately impose Sharia.

Now if theres anyone with a long view in Hamas (IE one who wants Sharia, but is pragmatic about the steps to get there) thats something they DONT want to do. It will make it that much more difficult for Hamas to reach out on the West Bank, and will solidify Fatah control there, as well as perhaps stirring things up on the Strip, and maybe alienating world opinion further.

OTOH alot of rank and file Hamas have got to be itching for Sharia NOW. So this adds pressure for that - if they DONT impose Sharia, AQ will present itself as an alternative for unhappy Hamas gunnies.

#4 Wait a minute, I just had an idea....

Given who Zawahiri is and where he comes from, and given what he and all those bozos think of Mubarak et. al., and given that there's no oil or much of anything else in Egypt, why can't we re-target the whole muji whack job group at taking over Egypt?

We could probably get a Gaza to the 10th power and let the rats eat each other while we look on with large stocks of pop-corn.

#5 What is funny about all of this chest-beating by Al-Q is that they may finally push Egypt into stomping HARD on the gun tunnels and assorted Paleo smugglers operating from Egyptian soil. Mubarak and the Egyptian elite cannot permit Al-Q and its ilk in Egypt to get going strong because they will be the first to die. And traditionally that has meant really TOUGH counter-insurgency responses against those seen as threatening the Egyptian state : just ask the 3 Bedu tribes suspected of involvement in the tourist hotel bombings, if you can find any of them living and still able to speak.
