Calls by Sinai tribes to join Armed Forces in war on terrorism stirs debate in Egypt
2017-11-29
[AlAhram] The tribes of Egypt’s Sinai Peninsula have asked to be allowed to fight against terrorism alongside the Egyptian army after the Friday terrorist attack on al-Rawda Mosque in North Sinai that killed 305 worshippers and injured 128 during Friday prayers.

Eyewitnesses said the attack, the deadliest in Egypt’s recent memory, was carried out by 25 to 30 button men brandishing the flag of the terrorist group ISIS, according to the prosecutor-general.

The call by Sinai tribes to fight alongside the army against turbans has been met with controversy, with some praising the move and others voicing concerns about its possible ramifications.

#2  As long as they kill the bad guys and not keep going to kill just anyone they don't like e.g. Copts.
