The day after tomorrow..


Egypt is a key partner in the search for peace in the Middle East and resolution of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. But what will happen now? The ninth and current prime minister of Israel Benjamin Netanyahu is taking a more closer look at  Egypt as the crowed chants out with millions of determined and loud voices, Netanyahu yet gets another round of  ‘table meetings’,  as the thought of millions of Egyptians thundering day and night in the Tahrir square.

Is this a sign to him and his country? We now know that Egypt has opened its door to the people of gazze on the 7th day of the turmoil. Without notice I can assure you that the people of gazze took side with the protestors as soon as they entered the ancient city filled with activist shouting out for democracy.

We now that Egypt is the first Arab country to sign treaty with Israel, the Camp David treaty signed in between 17’Th of September 1979 and 1978, but not longer after Israel broke the treaty after a couple months the Arabs understood that they could no longer make treaties with the Israel, so the war between Egypt and Israel never seemed to come to an end.

Israel wants to maintain its military superiority over Egypt, by means of America's control over military assistance to both countries. Also Israel uses Egypt's influence over the different Palestinian factions as authority. It is unclear who will emerge victorious from the power struggle in Egypt; it is even less certain whether other dictatorial governments in the region will be next to face the democratic forces of mass mobilization.

Egypt is trying to challenge Israel's strategic superiority while at the same time moderating the damaging effects of Israel Defense Forces activity in Lebanon and the Palestinian territories. This approach constitutes the background to Cairo's diplomatic struggles to shut down the reactors, and to its involvement in managing the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, which could spill over into Egyptian territory.


The biggest question is what will happen the day after the Egyptian president leaves the office. There is no greater Israeli fear than the rise of an Islamic regime, like wise in Iran, which would transform Egypt from a tranquil neighbor into a threatening monster.
