Egypt withdraws Israeli ambassador over police deaths‎

http://timesofearth.com/Middle-East/?NT=&nid=40528 CAIRO - Egypt is withdrawing its ambassador to Israel to protest the deaths of Egyptian security forces during Israel's retaliatory attacks against militants along the nations' shared border.

The Egyptian Cabinet said is withdrawing its ambassador until the results of an Israeli investigation into the incident are provided. The Cabinet said it also wants the Israeli leadership to apologize for what it described as "hasty" remarks about Egypt.

Egypt lodged a formal protest against Israel on Friday, saying five members of its security forces were killed during the Israeli attacks. There have been conflicting reports as to how they died.

Egypt's official news agency reported that Israeli forces shot the Egyptians while going after gunmen who killed eight Israelis in an ambush Thursday across the border in southern Israel.

Hundreds of people demonstrated in front of the Israeli embassy in the Egyptian capital, Cairo, Friday, calling for the Israeli ambassador to be expelled because of the killings.

Retaliatory violence escalated between Israel and militants in the Gaza Strip late Friday, as Israeli airstrikes continued and Palestinians fired rockets back into Israel. Israeli strikes have killed at least 12 Palestinians in Gaza, most of them militants.

Meanwhile, a military wing of the militant group Hamas declared Friday that it is ending a de facto two-year truce with Israel. Hamas controls the Palestinian government in Gaza.

The Israeli military said the gunmen behind Thursday's attacks came from Gaza and crossed into southern Israel through Egypt's Sinai Peninsula.

Israel has expressed concern about a deterioration of security in the Sinai since Egypt's President Hosni Mubarak resigned in February. Last week, Egypt moved additional forces to the region in an effort to improve the situation.

Israeli forces responded to Thursday's ambush with ground assaults and airstrikes that killed nine people. The dead included at least four members of the Popular Resistance Committees, an armed Palestinian group that Israel blamed for the attacks.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu warned in a televised address Thursday that anyone who attacks Israel will pay what he called a "very heavy price." Defense Secretary Ehud Barak called the assaults a grave terrorist incident.

@SpankMeNasty BesidesEgyptians are not Arabs basically ,but they are Pharoahs who humiliated you long time ago and been taking your women and ladies as slaves and whores.See the difference between us.It's 7000 years of civilizations VS NOTHING.It's just matter of time Jewish and then you will get fucked up again in anew holocaust but this time by the Muslims and their Pharoahs friends.What about Egypt, Pakistan, Turkey and Iran ??This time U.S.A can not afford new wars.No one stands you.

@SpankMeNasty Whatever nationality or the ethnicity of El-Edrissi was , He was Muslim.Islam is the base and the origin of the western development.Do you remember the time and days when the Europeans used to kick you out and nurn your bible book many times like what happened in Spain at the hands of their queeen "Isabella" then the Muslims in Andalusia state sympathised with you and gave you higher positions than you should take, i think that was the reason why we lost it.

@egyfan147 Fees? I suppose for a society that has practiced this form of corruption for so long it becomes accepted practice. About the numbers question the credit is to the Hindu system, although there is some acknowledgement towards Arabs for preserving them. In regards to this "El-Edrissi" from what I can find out he was Berber not Arab and used Spherical Trigonometry as postulated by the ancient Greek philosophers. Actually it is sad that you can only look to the distant past in this area.

In most people' eyes around the globe and including the United States of America, Israel is a strategic liability to the United States, it drags the U.S into many of its problems, conflicts and wars, on the top of that the excessive U.SAids that inflow from the Tax payer hands into your pockets and add to that the Military Aids including 100s of nukes!And after all you are telling me a better use of money?Let me give you a bomb from an American

@SpankMeNasty WOW! You mentioned"Bakshesh".By the way that concept is not only in the Arab world,because if you were a sapharderi-Arab Jew, you would know what does it mean. It's like a fees.And i was talking about a Gov. corruption and puppets,so what does fees or the so called "Bakshesh" have to do here exactly?Plus, the Arabian numbers are Indian but the English ones like 0123456789 were Arabic.Most important,What about the Middle Age scientists whom i had told you one of their famous names??

[SpankMeNasty]

@egyfan147 In the Arab world corruption isn't restricted to the leadership. The concept of "baksheesh" is the name of that corruption and has been in existence as long as their have been Arabs on camels. As for US aid, it is given to many countries. Israel just made better use out of it. The so called Arab numbers are really from the 628 AD Brāhmasphuṭasiddhānta of Brahmagupta that was copied by Yaʻqūb ibn Isḥāq al-Kindī in his "Ketab fi Isti'mal al-'Adad al-Hindi" 830 AD publication.

@SpankMeNasty If there is corruption in the arab countries , its because of the corrupt leaders that you posted. If Israel is developed as you claim,thanks to the tax payers in America and the zionist senators who gives you an annual aid for 3 billion U.S $ besides the jewish lobby .You use the Arab numbers of 0123456789. Don't you know that first one above the ground to draw a geographical map to our earth was an Arab-Muslim and called "El-Edrissi". Go check the scientists of middle age

@egyfan147 Fear Egypt? What is there to be afraid of? After all the terms Arab and muslim are the bywords for corruption, incompetence and backwardness. Hell even the UN has stated in reports on the third world nature of the Arab middle east in terms of education, health, economic development and military power. Israel on the other hand is accounted first world status with a modern economy and a proven military power that sees the Arab nations reduced to feeble boasting to prove their relevance.

@SpankMeNasty Suck my dick ! You fear Egypt. This is why you pussies demanded in the accord of Camp-David that the Egyptian troops not to exceed 750 Soldiers as gunmen in Area C of sinai Peninsula while your soldiers have already cross the borders and stand at the border line. It's over your beloved Mubarak has gone. There is a new adminstration in Egypt. Remember what happened to your bitches in Yom Kippur of 73 hahahahaha.Golda cried as if she was an old bitch.

Sounds like Eygpt wants another lesson on why Israel is the superior power in the middle east. Oh well, watching the Jews inflict another military defeat on muslims is always fun to watch.
