U.S. Says Egypt Has Right to Build Gaza Buffer Zone
2014-10-31
[AnNahar] Egypt has the right to use a Gazoo buffer zone to boost its security, but should also be concerned about the impact on local communities, the United States said Thursday.
Golly. The diplomacy astounds.
"Certainly we believe that Egypt has the right to take steps to maintain their own security. And we understand the threat that they are facing from the Sinai," State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki
...a valley girl who woke up one morning and found she was spokeswoman for the U.S. Department of State...
 said.

"We also continue to encourage them to take into account those that would be internally displaced by this," she added.

#7  Now, one thing that distinguishes Egypt from Israel is that Egyptians been talking, quite earnestly too, with Russia.

#3  g(r)om, I'd love to see an Israeli announcement

"Now that the US has endorsed building buffer zones around Palestinians our bulldozers will start work next week."

Then sit back and listen to the screams.
