NOBODY IN EGYPT LOVES HAMAS ANYMORE???

Sometimes, governments send messages, in this case the Egyptian military, in ways that can't be overlooked if you're not paying attention.

The flooding of the Gaza Strip tunnels has an impact on the population inside Gaza, but the real message is to Hamas!

The denial of Hamas headquarters in Cairo is also a message from the Egyptian military.

So, let me ask a simple question.

Do these two events signal that the Egyptian military is one, not on the side of the Muslim brotherhood, and more importantly not in favor of supporting Hamas?

You see, it appears Egyptian military is actually sent to messages.

One is to the West and the second, in my opinion more importantly, to the brotherhood; "we still call the shots in Egypt"!

Make no mistake, these two rather remarkable yet apparently overlooked events seem to be sending a clear signal from Egypt's military.

Over the course of the last several weeks I've heard many individuals asked the question as to why the United States continues to send arms to the Egyptian military.

Could it be that the US government know something most others simply don't grasp?

Could the delivery of arms to the Egyptian military be taking place because the West understands the Egyptian military is still on "their side"?

One thing is for sure, Hamas in very short order is come to realize where they stand with the Egyptian military.

Quite honestly, there is a price for Hamas to pay for supporting terrorist operations in the Sinai and the loss of Egyptian military lives did not go unnoticed.

So what will become of the tunnel operations in the Gaza?

It appears not all the tunnels have been affected and quite honestly this event is probably nothing more than "messaging".

Denying Hamas headquarters in Cairo is also nothing more than "messaging"!

You can rest assured that both of these events did not go unnoticed by Iran and the brotherhood!

It also did not go unnoticed by the Israeli government.

The dynamics of Egypt became evident several weeks ago has its military appeared slow to react to the protest against the current government.

These two new events are further indications that all is not lost in the struggle for control of Egypt.

The Muslim brotherhood realizes today more than it did yesterday just how difficult it is to "rule".

I have spoken the past about the relationships that have developed between the IDF and the Egyptian military over the past 30 years and how these relationships cannot be overlooked.

None of these actions equate into smooth waters for Egypt, but they do give a clear indication of just how difficult certain organizations can make day-to-day life for the Muslim brotherhood.

I'm anxious to see the reactions of Hamas's leadership over these two events and I would have loved to been a fly on the wall when the phones began to ring between Hamas and the Muslim brotherhood.
