A War is unlikely

Reader comment on item: Rethinking the Egypt-Israel "Peace" Treaty

Submitted by A.G (Egypt), May 18, 2007 at 09:42

Yes, the building up of arms is kind of worrying but i think that it is unlikely that egypt will wage a full scale war against israel bec it knows it will lose, as Israel is supported by the us, which gives Egypt a lot of money to aid the development of the country, and supplies it with food products as wheat. so if the us cuts these products the country would be in trouble
