Things are Happening in Egypt
By Micah Halpern

Monday July 27, 2009

I've Been Thinking:

Two very important events took place in Egypt yesterday.
You will probably not read about them in the world press, but each event has significant implications for the region.

# 1: At the request of Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak, George Mitchell, Obama's special envoy to the Middle East, moved up his scheduled trip to the region. Rather than arriving on Tuesday, he arrived on Sunday.
It seems that there are important issues at stake between Hamas and the PA, issues that cannot wait.
Mitchell arrived in Egypt via Syria and will be meeting in Jerusalem and Ramallah on Monday and Tuesday.

# 2: A special Egyptian security court dedicated to terror and espionage charged 26 people with joining a Hezbollah plot to blow up ships as they passed through the Suez Canal.
Had the plot not been thwarted, the entire Egyptian economy would have been destroyed. Egypt knows that Iran and Hezbollah were together in plotting these potentially devastating attacks.

All of this bears watching.
Careful watching.
