The Gaza/Egypt tunnels.


Hamas spawned off the Muslim Brotherhood, which Egypt has branded a terrorist organization. Egyptian authorities have been cracking down hard on Muslim Brotherhood and accused Hamas of helping Islamic militants waging a campaign of violence in Egypt.

Egypt has tightened the closure on Gaza by destroying smuggling tunnels under the border that were largely propping up the strip's economy. That has thrown Hamas into a financial crisis. A clear cause an effect.

More rockets on Israel will not convince the Egyptian to change their minds. Israel ground invasion of Gaza is to destroy the network of secret tunnels.  So it is on both sides.

Hamas wants the permanent opening of the crossing with Egypt, an arrangement to allow Gazans to pray in Jerusalem and the release of political prisoners held by Israel. This is simple but will not happen.

Militants must put aside the murdering methodology against Egypt and or Israel. But then, Peace and building lives is far difficult task.

Just a thought.
