#1 The Egyptians might seriously wish to consider where the precedent they are setting might lead. People that live in glass pyramids should not throw stones.

#2 They might also want to consider that this might break the treaty that gave them back Sinai and provides hefty checks to numberous Egyptian accounts.

If the Egyptians were smart they'd look south. As an Arab nation Egypt could easily grab up Sudan, take the oil, and play hero to the world.

#3 I think the Egyptians would be as thrilled annexing Sudan as much as we would be annexing Mexico.

For much the same reason.

#4 Ethnically the guys running Egypt and Sudan are virtually the same, I don't see the correlation. A deal could be cut with the blacks in the South, limited autonomy in exchange for oil wealth sharing and an end to the civil war. Win/win.

And the although the Egyptian army is pathetic the army of the Sudan is even worse.

#5 Egypt just likes to play pretend west. They're the darkest corner of Muzzie Brudderhood.
