So Egypt has found Hezbollah playing the espionage game and took some time exposing it publicly. There is some question as to why they have gone public now and it has to do with concerns with our stated change in foreign policy.
"The remaining question is the timing. If Egypt uncovered the plotters back in November, why has it waited till now to publicize it?
The answer seems to lie in Mazel’s observation (http://www.jpost.com/servlet/Satellite?cid=1239488121019&pagename=JPost%2FJPArticle%2FShowFull) that, “Meanwhile, there is a new player on the scene. U.S. President Barack Obama has started a dialogue with Syria and is about to begin one with Iran.”
Mazel adds: “Egypt and the pragmatic camp are not too happy about that development, though they will not admit it publicly; they would rather see Israel and the U.S. bomb Iran and do away with the Iranian threat, since they know very well it will not be removed by diplomacy.”
The question is whether Obama is listening, and can absorb—before it’s too late—the facts that: the obsessively-pursued Palestinian issue is not central to the relatively geopolitically pro-Western Arab states in the region like Egypt, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, and smaller Gulf states; instead they’re much more concerned about the push for hegemony by Iran and its allies Syria, Hezbollah, Hamas, and others, and know that this camp cannot be deflected from its designs with professions of friendship and “respect.”
