As of today, it's now mystery the Egyptian Military is about
to launch a major operation in the Sinai and it's also no mystery, the Egyptian
Military is prepared to inflict serious harm on Hamas if it's members make the disastrous
decision to get involved.
A disastrous decision I think some of their more radical elements
may make, thus bringing pain onto all of Hamas.
General Sisi and his Commanders are more than confident on
the issue of Hamas support to the Muslim Brotherhood and it's armed support
groups.
As I have said for over two weeks now, the destruction of
the tunnel complex, the ones the Egyptians want to disrupt, not all of them,
and the surveillance of Gaza
has been executed for a reason.
General Sisi's speech to the Egyptian people yesterday was
more than just a statement, plea, to his supporters.
More importantly, it was a dire warning to his enemies!!!
" We know where you are and we are coming to get
you"!!
That was the underlying message from Sisi and his
Commanders.
Now, doest that mean the streets of the Egyptian Capital are
going to run red with blood on Friday?
Not necessarily!
You see, my bet is Sisi's intent was to prepare the Egyptian
people and the people in the region for what they are going to witness taking
place in the Sinai.
Keeping order in the streets of the major cities in Egypt while simultaneously
attacking the radical strongholds in the Sinai; I think that is the real intent
of Sisi's message.
I can name you one group that absolutely
believes this to be the case.
Hamas!!!
In this linked article, it's easy to see just how worried
Hamas is about the public perception of Hamas' relationship with the Muslim
Brotherhood.
If I was a betting man, I would place a month's wages on the
fact that Hamas is doing everything in their power to keep anything and I mean
anything from launching from Gaza towards Egypt .
Hamas is convinced the Egyptian Military and the IDF have
struck a deal and Hamas has never found themselves is a worse position than the
one they are being squeezed into.
Ok, here comes the bad news, at least bad from the viewpoint
of Hamas leadership.
The ability of Hamas to control the radical elements living
in Gaza is
zero!!!!
If every there was a time to give up the location and
intentions of Hamas' rivals in Gaza ,
the next 24hrs has got to be it.
Some will argue the Egyptian Military operation has been
taking place in the Sinai for over two weeks now, but what we have witnessed is
far short of what Egypt
is most likely preparing to execute.
Remember, the emphasis of Sisi's speech was on
"Terrorist" and the actions to remove the threat.
That time is almost here and everyone near the Sinai knows
it.
One last thought, but it's a critical one.
What is Hamas' option if they begin to pay the price for the
actions of "others" around them they cannot control?
Lets see what happens in the next 48 hrs.
