1. Morsi's fall one in the eye for Obama
norbus ,   Jerusalem   (06.28.13)
As Obama's halo disintegrates and his real agenda comes through the fog he created, Morsi's fall will be the first tangible result of his anarchistic acts Obama is a laughing stock , and sadly he has harmed USA and the free world.
2. syrian parallel
SVK ,   Slovakia   (06.28.13)
IsnĀ“t Egypt walking to the same bright future like Syria did?
3. Egypt is less divided than Israel.
Miron ,   USA   (06.28.13)
Their criminals are more ethical than Israel's PM. At least they aren't getting commissions on the back of dividing Cairo on 2. Realistically, if anything to happen to Israel today, there hardly is one man in the whole Israel who will fight for what it has become.
4. Amidst the chaos
Dror ,   Haifa, Israel   (06.28.13)
Many Sudanese and Eritreans could end up back on the Egyptian side of the border.
5. Last year I wrote that Egyptians wud rememember Mubarak good
Alan ,   SA   (06.28.13)
times..(do you remember Fadi?).It was those golden days! Unfortunately Egyptians dont even learn from their mistakes!
6. It is in Egypt's best interest ....
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (06.28.13)
.... to make Israel content. I care very little as to who leads Egypt, as long as that leader understands that Egypt's hold on the Sinai -- and the Suez Canal -- depends very much on Israel's level of tolerance. Too much terrorist activity in the Sinai, and the Sinai reverts to Israel. Won't take much effort. Way too much terrorist activity in the Sinai, and Israel takes a strip of land on the west bank of the Suez. We've done it before. We can -- and will -- do it again if we have to. The Egyptians know this. What they choose to do with their knowledge is up to them. But they need to understand that Israel is not playing around. A few more missiles fired into Israel from the Sinai, and Egypt will have a VERY big problem on their hands. Don't look to the international community for help. The international community is well aware that they are being held hostage by outrageous fees for transiting the Canal. That's why so many are opting for the longer trip around the Cape. Or, Israel can simply sink some tonnage in the Canal, and render it completely useless. Israel has Egypt by the short and curlies. Egypt would do very, VERY well to pay attention. Egypt is Israel's bitch. Get used to the idea; it isn't going to change any time soon. Egypt is lucky that Israel has been patient this long. That, too, is subject to sudden change.
7. #3 you have obviously NEVER BEEN TO ISRAEL
Jerome ,   Basalt, Colorado   (06.28.13)
If you saw what Israel has become you would know that many millions of intelligent people would fight for Israel!
8. love new found arab democracy
zionist forever   (06.28.13)
A year ago they elected Morsi, he has not improved the economic situations in 1 year and so they are taking to the streets demanding he go now. Don't these idiots understand that in democracies leaders are not chosen by street protestors it happens at elections. Also how long does a PM get to prove he can do the job? Morsi the countries first PM is elected 1 year ago and because he hasn't delivered the goods after just 1 year ago. Somebody really needs to educate these idiot arabs make them understand economic reforms do not happen overnight especially considering Morsi inherited a large debt. With any luck they will just ditching one PM after another and the country will never get their debt under control because poor countries are less of a threat than rich ones which is why the collapse of Syrias economy will be good for Israel.
9. @7 which ones? The ones who were Gush Katiffed
Miron ,   USA   (06.28.13)
the ones who are about to be Gush Katiffed, or the ones who are Gush Katiffing them Egypt, inspite of all that happening, looks better these days. So, I don't think Israeli press is anymore qualified to comment on Egyptian troubles as Coloradians on Israel.
