| #14 The same logistical considerations apply to a Libyan Campaign as they did in WW2. The Turkish Intervention is akin to Rommel's DAK ... The side that controls the sea controls the coastal transportation artery. Will Egypt's navy be ordered to sink the Turks or not? |

| #11 Considering the horrible performance of Turkish units recently and the excellent logistical position Egypt would be in (not to mention I think the Israelis would offer some good intel for Egypt against the brotherhood) the war against Turkey would be very bloody and very short. |

| #7 https://timep.org/reports-briefings/timep-briefs/european-arms-sales-to-egypt/ Between 2013 and 2017, France surpassed the United States as the top provider of arms to Egypt, providing almost 4 billion euros in supplies.This shift reflects major sales by France, including a deal to deliver 24 Rafale jets in 2015. Between 2013 and 2017, several European countries—most notably France and Germany, along with Russia—have provided Egypt with over $4.2 billion in arms sales. |

| #5 Turks have some current 'real-world' battlefield experience in Syria. Egypt recently, not so much. |

| #1 You are far from home Dorothy, and Egypt does not want Moslem Brotherhood installed anywhere or anything that smells like you anywhere. Go back to harassing Cyprus or your other useless functions. For this fight you shall not want. |
