[FONT=&quot]For many years now both Israel and Egypt, under able terror guidance from USA and Europe, have crippled Palestinian economy and security by blockades and terror attacks. Although Egypt has not killed many in Palestinians, they enormously helped Israel in its massacres.

[FONT=&quot]Relations between Zionist regime and post-Mubarak Egypt governed by military interim regime with new foreign policy have been strained. Egypt withdraws its ambassador to Israel in protest at the deaths of five policemen, reportedly shot by Israeli forces on August 17. Cairo said it held Israel politically and legally responsible, and demanded an investigation and an apology. Israel has promised to investigate the deaths, amid claims that Israeli forces killed the officers while chasing suspected Palestinian militants.

[FONT=&quot]It is the first time in a decade that Egypt has withdrawn its ambassador. It marks a sharp escalation in tensions between Israel and Egypt. The 30-year-old peace treaty was already being tested after the long-time Egyptian leader, Hosni Mubarak, was forced from office earlier this year, our correspondent says. Cairos action will stay [/FONT][FONT=&quot]until they are notified about the results of an investigation by the Israeli authorities.

[FONT=&quot]The latest violence began when gunmen attacked buses near the Israeli Red Sea resort of Eilat, killing eight people. Egyptian officials say Israeli forces chased what Tel-Aviv says as the suspected militants across the border, and a number of people were killed - including the policemen.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Many Egyptians say they don't want any ties with Israel. Israel is only interested in a subservient Egypt, not a free Egypt. Hundreds of Egyptians protested outside the Israeli embassy in Cairo overnight, burning the Israeli flag and demanding that the Israeli ambassador be expelled from the country. Protests were reportedly continuing on Saturday morning. By protesting outside the embassy we're sending them a clear message. This is not Mubarak's Egypt anymore. If you kill our soldiers, there will be consequences."[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]On Friday, in Egypt's second city, Alexandria, a protester managed to take down the Israeli flag from the consulate there and replaced it with Egyptian and Palestinian flags. After the initial Eilat attack, Israel expressed concern about security in the Sinai Peninsula and said Palestinian attackers had reached Eilat after entering Egypt from Gaza and travelling through the Sinai desert. But the Egyptian cabinet issued a statement denying it had lost control of the Sinai and demanding an apology from the Israeli leadership over "the sad and hasty remarks about Egypt".[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]
[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Cairo said it regarded the attack as a breach of the 1979 peace treaty between the two nations, and blamed Israel for lax border controls. Under Mubarak, ties between the two nations had been stable after a history of conflict. But Mubarak's ousting in a popular uprising has sparked fears among Israeli officials that a less amenable government could take charge in Cairo. And the Sinai desert region of Egypt has become increasingly lawless since Mubarak was ousted, with a rise in militant activity inspired by al-Qaeda.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]
[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Israeli government spokesman Mark Regev warned there had been an "erosion of law and order in some parts of Sinai in the last few weeks. He says Israel and Egypt have a common interest in the border remaining quiet and not allowing extremist elements to establish a platform in Sinai. "I understand that the Egyptians have no interest whatsoever in once again extremist elements escalating violence along the border."[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]
[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Some protesters carried pictures of the late Egyptian President, Gamal Abdel Nasser, known for his open anti-Israeli stance. As the numbers of protesters grew outside the Israeli embassy in Cairo, the chants grew louder. Protesters called for the embassy to be closed and the ambassador expelled. They burned the Israeli flag and tore down the metal barriers at the entrance of the embassy. Such scenes were unheard-of during the Mubarak era. Security is tight around the embassy, two military vehicles could be seen in front of the building, and armored emergency vehicles were also at the scene. Israel feels more and more isolated because of its own making. Already Turkey has warned Israel against arrogance against Palestinians and also sought apology for its attack on Turkish aid ship for Gaza with essentials. Israeli aircrafts have since repeatedly attacked targets in the Gaza Strip, killing and wounding many. Israel's 'social protests' rattle Netanyahu government. Demanding change, they were fed up with the ruling elite and said their government was no longer listening to its people. After Egypt, Tunisia, Bahrain, Saudi Arabia Syria and Libya, now the uprisings have penetrated the iron walls of fascist Israel as well. [/FONT]

Global media today, even in Muslim nations, are controlled by anti-Islamic agencies.

Terrorism is caused by anti-Islamic forces. Fake democracies like USA and India have zero-tolerance to any criticism of their anti-Muslim and other aggressive practices.Anti-Muslimism and anti-Islamism are more dangerous than "terrorism" Anti-Islamic forces & terrorists are using criminal elements for terrorizing the world and they in disguise are harming genuine interests of ordinary Muslims. /abdulruff.wordpress.com/91-9961868309/91-9961868309
