MURSI AND  THE SINAI:

The verdict is still out on who was responsible for the attack a few weeks ago, but it is very apparent how the event has been molded into the " Master Plan" for the MB.

 Getting Israel's consent to move forces into the restricted Sinai under the auspice of countering a proven threat to not only Egypt but Israel as well, was a clever move.

Moving more than you were given permission to, such as Tanks, is brilliant opportunity not lost by the MB.

Does anyone really think these forces will be removed, even if  the supposed threat is removed?

Don't bet on it.

With these troops already in place, why would Egypt / the MB / not raise the subject of reviewing "treaty statuses" with Israel?

Would the argument not be, " it is obvious that times have changed and Egypt must be given the ability to keep 'everyone' in the region safe from Terrorist acts"?

You can bet Mursi will frame his argument in a manner close to this.

How will Israel respond?

Does Israel already have too much on it's plate with Iran to spend energy and political capital on the subject of the Sinai; at least for now?

My bet is they do.

MURSI'S / MB / MOVE ON THE EGYPTIAN MEDIA:

Almost completely off the radar, something the MB is very good at, is the topic of Mursi's government moving on the media of Egypt.

If you have not been following this story, you are not alone.

Syria is the sexy, crisis for the media right now and that will be backed up by Iran and Israel.

When the smoke clears, the media of Egypt will be just as tightly controlled as Mubarak ever could have dreamt of.

Let not forget who we are dealing with here.

When the Muslim Brotherhood makes the statement, "we are a new, more passive, more compassionate organization", that is the equivalent of the Mob stating they are opening a community center for the good of the neighborhood.

It's like Putin saying, " I feel your pain"!!!

The problem obviously continues to be, the rest of the Western world is just too tired or too preoccupied by crisis called the Middle East to confront what they know is taking place.

The Muslim Brotherhood is the slow cancer that no one pays attention to until it's too late.

Smiling as he lies to the "Infidels" is a key tool in Mursi's leadership style.

He is about to use it when he visits the Persians next week.
