Justifiable Hamaside.

Whenever there is a war on involving Israel and a terrorist group like Hamas, we invariably hear about the seething anger of the 'Arab Street' who all want to see Israel destroyed. So this is a turn up:
The funeral of the killed assassinated dead egyptian border officer was attended by 30,000 of his countrymen, who according to al masry alyoum, turned the event into an anti-Hamas rally, shouting anti-Hamas slogans, and rightly stating that his blood is on Hamas' hands.
In Britain there have, thus far, only been rallies against the other side of the conflict so we are behind the Egyptians on that one.

Good post title, good find.

As the Israelis are at pains to point out, Gaza has a common border with Egypt - which the Eqyptians have blocked because they don't like Hamas any more than the Israelis do.

Hope you have a Happy New Year.
