Egypt Denies Israeli Report Saying Submarine Enters Suez Canal
Readers Number : 765

05/07/2009 An Israeli submarine used the Suez Canal for the first time recently to get to military exercises in the Red Sea, a paper said on Sunday, adding the move was aimed as a message to arch-foe Iran.
 
The Dolphine submarine entered the canal that connects the Mediterranean and the Red Seas during the day and was escorted by Egyptian navy vessels sometime in June, the Israeli daily Yediot Aharonot said.
 
Previously Israeli submarines rounded the whole of Africa to get to exercises in the Red Sea, Israel's biggest-selling newspaper said. The Israeli daily said that with the move "Egypt and Israel wanted to show their coordination in the face of Iran pursuing its nuclear program."
 
Meanwhile, an anonymous Egyptian security source denied the report saying that there is no military cooperation between Tel Aviv and Cairo stressing that Egypt would never cooperate with Israel against any strike on Iran.
 
Israel, widely considered to be the Middle East's sole if undeclared nuclear power with more than 200 nuclear heads, suspects Iran of trying to build atomic weapons under the guise of a civilian nuclear program, a charge Tehran has vehemently denied saying it is its right under the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty (NPT) while Israel is not a signatory for this treaty.

We know that the Arab dictators like the Al Saud family, Husni Mubarak and Abdullah have strong alliances with Israel which regularly provides them with intelligence relevant to their survival. 05/07/2009 15:48:00

Bismillah errahman erraheem (In the name of God, Most Compassionate, Most Merciful). I do not expect to hear the truth from illegitimate, ruthless and unjust dictators like Husni Mubarak, Al Saud and Abdullah. They illegally and violently stole the power from the Arab people. So, how can you believe them? And as a matter of fact and as we speak they are plotting with Israel to bomb Iran. Why? Ask yourself: "How do I feel when I think about Iran?""Woww! I wish if my country was like Iran where I, male or female, can run for President, I can freely vote for the candidate of my choice, I can speak, write and publish against corruption, the masajids (Mosques) are open 24 hours, the Imams are chosen by the people and true Islamic education is taugt in the schools. That's where I wish to live."
