Barry’s secret $8 billion deal

The fall of Egpt’s Muslim Brotherhood took with it an $8 billion secret deal with the White House for the Brotherhood to hand over 40 percent of the Sinai to Gaza’s Hamas rulers, according to JoshuaPundit’s reading of a French Canadian report on Arab news media.

“There’s no question either than Morsi and the Brotherhood would sign off on the deal, since they needed the money and since their loyalty is to the Brotherhood and the making of the Caliphate rather than Egypt per se. The deal would also be a step towards integrating Hamasistan with Egypt, something else Morsi and his friends were very interested in. So the deal was a win-win for both sides.”

Was a win-win. Was. It would have expanded Gaza enormously, though the expansion would have been mostly sand and rocks. Now the sand and rocks will remain part of Egypt, courtesy of the IDF whose proviso is that Egyptian military does its best to keep it terrorist-free.
