1. Egypt had better pay attention ....

... to what goes on along the Israeli-Egyptian border, or else .... Sinai comes back to Israel. It's ours, anyway. We can roll over the Egyptian -- for lack of a better word, "army" -- in a heartbeat. It's not as if we haven't done it before. Several times, actually, but who's counting?
2. Perhaps a 3 km No-Go strip on the Egyptian side

is in order until they get their act together and deal with this illegal breaches of sovereignty from the Sinai.
3. does Israel honor a treaty
observer ,   Egypt   (08.01.12)
Egypt guarantees of freedom of passage through the Suez Canal and Straits of Tiran. In return, Israel agrees to limit its forces to a distance of 3 km from the Egyptian border, and to guarantee free passage between Egypt and Jordan; both never have been achieved. Needless to say Israel has to guarantee talk with Palestinian and Syrians which is never the case, but symbolic lip service one. What does Israel lose if Egypt annuls the treaty is the free passage in Suez Canal and Tiran straits, both are sovereign Egypt's territories
