Egypt's War on Terrorism
(Gatestone Institute) Khaled Abu Toameh - Egypt began this week flooding smuggling tunnels along its border with Gaza with water from the Mediterranean Sea. The Egyptians are convinced that Hamas and other Palestinian groups in Gaza have been providing aid to the terror groups in Sinai that have killed dozens of Egyptian soldiers and police officers. At the same time, Hamas continues to dig new tunnels on the border between Gaza and Israel. It is no secret that Hamas has rebuilt many of the terror tunnels that were used to infiltrate gunmen into Israel during last year's military confrontation. Hamas is planning to use these tunnels in the future, to dispatch its men to kill as many Israelis as possible.
