#1 Will this be more of the 'aid' the Gazook have been launching at Israel in such quantity lately?

#2 Given this, I shouldn't think so Glenmore.

#3 Unlikely it would be anything that could be shot back. Remember Gaza was part of Egypt, not Palestine before the '67 war. Egypt only supported a separate Paleo state when they figured out they weren't going to be able to get the land and serfs back.

#4 Egypt only supported a separate Paleo state when they figured out they ~~weren't going to be able~~ didn't want to get the land and serfs back.

#6 Probably would have taken the land back if they didn't have to take the serfs too.

#7 I wasn't aware Egypt had any medical or food supplies to spare currently. Did they recover from the Brotherhood's rule that quickly?

#8 Did they recover from the Brotherhood's rule that quickly?

Egypt has been getting regular cash infusions since al Sisi kicked out the Brotherhood, Charles. Gifts, loans, purchases of whatever... Saudi Arabia has taken the lead, as I recall.
