Is it any wonder that Egypt wants to keep Hamas sealed up?
This seems like the weirdest continuing thing going yet. After the split between the Fatah and Hamas, the Fatah is all but forgotten compared to Hamas. Not only that but the continued stories in the Gaza and all the support for the Hamas at home and overseas.
Yet the Egypt has closed off border again after a firefight with Hamas that left one Egyptian solider dead. The reason for the shooting was interesting to say the least.
At some point, Hamas police fired shots to disperse the crowd and shots were also heard from the Egyptian side of the border. It was not clear who fired first.
But that did not stop the attempt to open the border.
Hamas is trying to rally Arab and Muslim public opinion against the barrier it has dubbed the “death wall.” Hamas-allied Muslim clerics have denounced the wall as “haram,” or forbidden by Islam, and protesters picketed Egyptian embassies in Lebanon and Jordan this week.
Really? We are now getting lectures about how Muslims should act from a group that has regularly used suicide bombers and attacks civilian targets?
Also there was a protest in Cairo over not having a open border with Gaza where some of the protesters got roughed up. But considering the shootings today that this quote seemed very ironic.
The Gaza Freedom March represents people from 43 countries with a diversity of backgrounds. They include peoples of all faiths, community leaders, peace activists, doctors, artists, students, politicians, authors and many others. They share a commitment to nonviolence and a determination to break the siege of Gaza.
Yep and we have seen just how well that worked today. I still believe that Hamas is causing the majority of all the problems that people face in the Gaza strip. With several groups willing to all but bend backwards to support Hamas, this terror group will have no reason not to continue their activities at the expense of the local population in and outside of Gaza.

Good on Egypt, at least for this border barrier. Maybe if enough Hamas run into this “Death Wall”, the Middle-East terrorist problem will solve itself.
As for the Gaza Freedom March (gag), get a list of names of all participants. All the foreign ones (hippies), revoke their visas AND passports. Please, where ever they’re from, DON’T SEND ‘EM HOME. WE DON’T WANT THEM.
And in other news; Satan has complained that there aren’t enough air conditioners in hell and has asked his supporters to protest the shabby treatment hell is receiving from others and to demand air conditioner production be doubled so there are more available.
