ISIS fires rockets into Israel from Egypt
http://www.jpost.com/Israel-News/ISIS-ta...lat-481033
Quote:A branch of Islamic State in Egypt's Sinai reportedly claimed responsibility for firing rockets from Egypt into Israel on Wednesday night.
According to reports in Gazan media early Thursday, the Sinai branch of Islamic State was responsible for a barrage of missiles at Eilat, on Israel's southernmost city.
In a message published to the media, ISIS proudly stated they there were indeed responsible for the fire that was directed at southern Israel late on Wednesday, boasting of their intentions to commit further attacks.
"With the grace of God alone, a military squad fired several Grad rockets at encampments of Jewish usurpers in the city of Um al-Rashrash [Eilat] in order to teach the Jews and the crusaders that a proxy war will not avail them of anything."
Quote:During the incident, four projectiles were fired into southern Israel and three were intercepted by the Iron Dome missile defense system, according to the IDF Southern Command.

The Muslim Brotherhood leader that was elected as the President of Egypt went after these guys until Saudi Arabia got involved and had the military made a coup on him. Him and BiBi would have worked well together against these guys.

Egypt, while not exactly a bastion of freedom, probably won't take too kindly to this either. They'll get hit from both sides.

Remember when Israel gave up Gaza in the original Land For Peace agreement. Yeah, me too.
Oh and dumb*** libs, please don't bother to point out that this attack originated in Egypt, not Gaza. My point is generalized.

Yeah I agree. Israel is more than capable of taking care of themselves.
It's going to be interesting to see what the Trumpster has to say about this.

That's not how I remember events there. It seemed like utter chaos in the Sinai when Morsi was in control.
Sinai Province: Egypt's ISIS Affiliate | Wilson Center
Quote:instability and the release of extremists after Mubarak’s ouster in 2011 contributed to the rise of new Salafi jihadist groups. Ansar Bayt Al Maqdis (ABM), or “Supporters of Jerusalem,” was responsible for much of the violence. The group, formerly affiliated with al Qaeda, claimed responsibility for the attempted assassination of the Interior Minister, the bombing of a military intelligence building in Ismailayya and a police compound in Mansoura, the killing of dozens of soldiers, and many other attacks. ABM group stepped up its attacks on the Egyptian government after President Mohamed Morsi was ousted in 2013, emerging as the most powerful militant group in Egypt. The group escalated attacks in October 2014, prompting the government to declare a three-month state of emergency to deal with the jihadist insurgency.
On Nov. 10, 2014, ABM pledged allegiance to ISIS and changed its name to Sinai Province. The decision reportedly created a rift within the organization, with many of its cells in the Nile Valley defecting to pro-al Qaeda offshoots. The Sinai Province has maintained a rocky relationship with these groups. It has at times accused them of apostasy, but has also occasionally called for reconciliation.
The rise in violence post-Morsi is likely due to the fact that they were both Islamist groups, and worked toward the same or similar ends. You may have some correlation straight, but the causation is backwards.

I saw my first Chuck Norris movie around 79', A Force of One. Ron O'Neal was also in the movie and if you don't know who he is well he is "Superfly"

Only "Superfly" I know is Jimmy Snuka, but I'm a 90's baby so I'm outta my realm.
