    Default Friends no more? Egypt's MPs declare Israel No. 1 enemy

    Egypt calls Israel its number one enemy, saying it will “revise all its relations and agreements” with Tel Aviv. In a protest against Israeli attacks on Gaza, Egyptian MPs have voted to expel Israel's Ambassador in Cairo, and to halt gas exports.
    *"Egypt will never be the friend, partner or ally of the Zionist entity [Israel] which we consider as the first enemy of Egypt and the Arab nation," reads the text of a report prepared by the Arab Affairs Committee of the People's Assembly, the lower house of Egyptian parliament.

    The resolution was passed on Monday night with the majority of the country's Islamist-dominated 508-seat chamber voting in favor of halting of gas exports in protest against Israel’s attacks on Gaza.

    And this is a shock to whom? The whole arab spring BS was just a setup, a war is what's desired.

    Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free.

    Well let's be honest here, Egypt and Israel have never been "friends". Partners of convenience is more apt.

    Doesn't Egypt get US aid on the understanding that they'll be friendly toward Israel in return?

    So does Egypt forfeit that aid?

    For millennia, whoever controls the Temple Mount is hated by those who want to control the Temple Mount.

    Not yet, from the article:

    The vote is seen as largely symbolic as only the ruling Military Council, the country’s current government, can make such decisions.
    This is likely more for internal consumption. Politicians are politicians are politicians.
