with all the recent talk about Iran and Israel, I've been crusing some of the various Israeli news websites (at least the English-language ones!) and I keep coming across small articles concerning the Egyptian forces in the Sinai, from what I've been able to glean so far, it appears that a mechanized infantry brigade has been moved north of the passes along with air defense units, here the sources claim either several batteries, this is what seems to have the Israelis in such an uproar, after all, what use are SAMs in controlling the border?
the general tone is one of guarded concern, as long as the brigade is deployed for a short period, then the Israelis may not react, its the movement of the ADA forward that they are protesting.
