The official said Egypt already has implemented security measures that take into account an Israeli strike against Iran within the next month or so.
The Egyptian estimation could not be verified by officials in Jerusalem contacted by WND.
Also, officials in the Palestinian Authority said they did not have any indication of a Middle East war in the summer.
Mahmoud al-Zahar, Hamas chief in Gaza, told WND he believes a Middle East confrontation is likely, possibly in the next few months.
"You don't need to be a fortune teller to see that Israel is planning something soon," said al-Zahar, speaking on his cell phone from Gaza.
The Egyptian security official, meanwhile, said his country bolstered security forces along the border with the Hamas-controlled Gaza, believing Iran will urge Hamas to retaliate against Israel during any war with the Jewish state.
The security official said the Egyptian military has been placed on a general high alert.
He said a decision two weeks ago to open the Egypt-Gaza border took into account the possibility of an Israeli military strike against Iran next month. He said during any future war between Israel and Iran, the Gaza-Egypt border will need to remain closed due to likelysecurity threats from Gaza.
The Egyptian estimation also took into account a United Nations vote yesterday to impose a fourth round of sanctions on Iran. Tehran immediately vowed to continue with its nuclear program.
The sanctions, however, do not affect an air-defense missile deal in which Russia is expected to sell its advanced S-300 missile systems to the Iranians.
The missile system could complicate any military action aimed at Iran's nuclear plants.
When they do, the left and the UN will say "you didn't give our (useless) sanctions time to work". Go Isreal-blow the whole country of the face of the map and eliminate a menace to us all. If our liar-in-chief wasn't a muslim, we would be right with them (as we should be).

ReplyDeleteSo you want to start a 3rd war? How about we pay for the 2 we have now before we go and start a 3rd.
Some people have formed an opinion about a Country from information fed to them by Jewish Media.
ReplyDeletedoesn't that seem a bit stupid?
10:46 finish your oatmeal and get back to your facebook account. Just because you have no testicles doesn't mean you and your weakwilled friends are dragging us John Wayne conservatives down the drain anymore. As the great George Bush said "bring em on".
ReplyDeletep.s. who cares about money? in case you haven't been reading the papers lately, there is plenty of money around - just ask BP. They are going to pay for ALL the damage being done in the Western Hemisphere. lol

ReplyDeleteSo the Jewish media is pulling Iran's president's strings making him say he will destroy Israel and the United States? Put the rag on your head, shame your woman & cover her face and go join the enemy, bitch.
I hope Israel turns Iran into a smooth as glass parking lot. That's what Iran says they are going to do to Israel
when they have the nukes to do it. I say, Israel, please vaporize those American hostage holding dogs NOW.
As much as I would like to see Iran leader gone... I think if Israel hit's Iran, Egypt might enter the war, and hamas will attack Israel, and I believe that north Korea would help... I mean shit Russia is helping a terrorist basically by giving them air defense weapons and allowing this guy to make nukes so he, which we all know will use against country's...
